Ex-USS Barry

The display ship Barry moored at the Washington D.C. Navy yard. I wanted to give it kind of an older color photo feel with this shot so I intentionally desaturated it.

Nice angle on that one. The clouds help the composition.

It has an almost 3D feel to it. I like it.

Thanks for the compliments everyone, I'm glad that everyone liked the processing. I was fortunate to have some good light and a nice looking sky.

Fantastic shot in all aspects. I must disagree on the processing how ever, looks too much like HDR. a b&W conversion instead maybe. Just my opinion.

Well done. I worked at the Navy Yard for 12 years, and my parking space was just a few yards away from the gang way.
