Photographer’s Note
Battleship Wisconsin : Berthed in Norfolk, the Homeport of Naval History.
Redefining the skyline of downtown Norfolk, battleship Wisconsin stands stoically with dominating presence. After months of dredging and construction, Wisconsin majestically slipped into the seemingly tailored berth without a hitch on 7 December 2000 - fifty seven years after the warship was originally launched. Berthing the 45,000 ton, 887,3 foot long, and 108 foot wide battleship was a major feat of engireering.
It's a very beautiful boat to see.
I really like the effect of the big boat and the little buildings behind.

Bonjour Caroline
Un navire de guerre en ville; quelle vue étonnante!
Les courbes gracieuses du bateau sont ici opposées à l'architecture conventionnelle de constructions en série, ce qui constitue une vue paradoxale.
Votre appareil orné de bleu reproduit de fins détails!
Amicalement.
Robert
