BB 64, a photo from Virginia, South

Photographer's Note

The USS WISCONSON (BB 64) is anchored in downtown Norfolk in conjunction with Nauticus, The National Maritime Center and helps celebrate the rich naval traditions that the Hampton Roads area has been associated with. The ship is open for tours and is used periodically for ceremonies (my reason for being there that day). I am always amazed at the size (relatively small compared to many of the ships today) and the life style that had to accompany an assignment to something like that.

Tech:
Eight frames of digital blended together in PS7 with a total of about 20 layers to balance out exposures, color variations and imperfections.

Hi Craig
I like the perspective that the wide angle format gives this shot, you can almost feel the boat coming out of the frame!Great blending.
