23ST024 - MILW. Weathered paint on sailboat stern

A sailboat was dry-docked on the edge of Madison's Lake Monona. I noticed the weathered paint and design work on the stern, it said "MILWAUKEE" in white, block letters across the back. A few years of weathering added character, and I thought a detail shot would be a compelling, somewhat abstract image. I didn't have my camera with me; left it at home on purpose that evening. I committed to come back first thing in the morning, and I did!
