    An american cruiser that ran ashore many years ago.Had to do a bit of scrambling around to get this perspective.Comments welcome.

    Wish it were a little larger to appreciate what looks like a really good shot. This perspective shows the vastness of the area and the power of the sea. I'd love to see some close-ups of this ship...feeling adventurous? Nice work.

    I have never seen such a thing! Is the boat just sitting out there in the bay? (I guess I thought if they were wrecked someone would "clean" them up)! I love this shot, very unusual and unique. I feel like the second one, of the two you posted at the same time, is a little dark for me. I think that is from the sun and the water though. So I don't know if that could be changed. Both are great pictures but the 2nd one is my favorite.

    Hi Bobby,
    The second pic shows the ship is very rusty. Has it been left there for a long time? Why dont they remove it from the sea?
    All the best.

    the colors
    in the second one are beautiful...I really like the feel of the first and it gives you a real feel for how dangerous the sea is...I think there might have been a bit of sunflare that keeps me from seeing full crisp details...if it's possibly may \be go back and reshoot...

    again the second is well done

    I like the first shot as Natalie said, it looks dangerous and dramatic. I think a polarizer would have done the trick here and reduced the haze and glare and even brought out the clouds a bit . good shots. . .

    btw, old vessels and sunken ships make for good artificial reefs and surprisingly enough attract lots ofmarine life and usually add to a thriving enviroment. Just hope the removed the fuel and oil.

    Likely the local council are having another meeting to decide who would pay to have it removed.No doubt hoping that if they ignore the wreck it will go away by itself.An irish solution to an oirish problem. LOL
