Interesting that the part that would be out of the water is more rusted than the part that would usually be in the water.

Such a pity these ships were left to rot.

Motts !!!
You didn't go on any of these did you?

Lynne,
I'm with you on that completely!
Really beautiful and powerful photos , but I like viewing them right from the comfort of my computer chair!

About how deep is this water, I wonder?

This shot affected me too, but I wasn't sure what to say about it. It's very powerful, isn't it?

Yeah, I was thinking about which one of these would make the best setting for my pirate dance.

Amen, y'all. I think that's why I prefer the thought of 'sploring hospitals. I've been in so many that I know what to expect around most corners and in most basements and attics. But here - these things definitely gots monsters in 'em! :-)

Eeeeeeeek! You're right! Nessie, I am so sorry I confused you with a diplodocus! I needs new glasses! 8`-)

I'm the exact same way, Kassie...you wonder who went down with some of this ships...and what "lies beneath," not to get all movie quote-y (lol)

This hull makes me think of some sort of monster's mouth. Maybe the monster was sentenced into a hell he did not belong to, but he looks as if he wants to warn others before it's much too late.

This ship looks rather proud that it has not yet succumb to the fates of her sister ships, now, doesn't it?

Oh my heck! ~Me, you noticed that too? I thought I was going crazy when I saw that shadow.
It leaves much to the imagination, story wise, doesn't it now?

So, sorry couldn't help myself, I actually really like this photot alot, I just couldn't keep that lil devil girl quiet tonight. Must have been something I ate earlier. Hehe.

Indeed. My gosh, that it just such a unique shot. I like it a lot, Mr. Motts. It's beautiful and seemingly holds a life of it's own.
