[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is No. 1 basin of the Gdynia port, and the famous polish torpedo-boat "Błyskawica". This warship is a precious national relic, the only remaining ship that was built before the World WAR II. "Błyskawica" was built in 1935-1937. In 1940 it took part in covering actions for coastal convoys and in the Norwegian operation. The next operation was covering of the British expeditionary corps evacuation from the Dunkirk area. During the war the Polish navy ship "Błyskawica" quarded 83 convoys, carried out 108 operational patrols, participated in sinking two warships, damaged three submarines and shot down four war-planes for sure and quite probably three more.
At present it belongs to the Navy Museum.

bellissima foto. ciao gigicacco

Great photo and I enjoyed reading the history of the boat. I wish more posting were like this. You have made my morning!

Good note, Jacek.
The detail in the photo is good, and the colours are great, the white swans are good contrast.

Cheers

Witaj Jacek!
Szeroki kat robi swoje. Wypatrzylem, ze horyzont lekko 'leci'. Labedzie sa fajnym dodatkiem tutaj. Podoba mi się panoramiczen podejscie do tematu.
Pozdrawiam
Seb

Ciekawe ujecie... podoba mi sie z tymi ptakami na wodzie.
Kompresja nieco jednak za duza

Świetny kadr oraz zabawne połaczenie siły i agresywności (okręt) z łagodnością (łabędzie).
Kolorystyka nieba idealnie ułożyła się z kolorostyką statku.
Bardzo dobre zdjęcie.

Interesting compo, pretty rich :
> there is depth, thanks to the pov and the perpsective you created
> there is a good light management, especially on the clouds in the Background
> there is inspiration with the swanns, unexpected in this military mood.
Well done, then.
