In a sea of blue
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 5 November 2008 in Transportation.
A shot on the Aircraft Carrier Intrepid which is now a Museum in NYC, opening again on Nov 8th
Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it
Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

nice capture: would be really cool if we had someone visible on the ship to give it a good sense of scale: not that I don't get a sense already: just though it would be real cool :D nice perspective as well

Great shot - great blues and the little bit of red on the tails of the jets adds interest also

Nice shot, it's hard to capture something so big in the frame without losing the sense of great size. Well done!
