A very imposing aircraft carrier indeed. The black and white presentation gives it the right ind of mood for the aged carrier. The boat in the foreground gives it the scale. Overall an eye caching post. Thanks for sharing!

Quit e a nice maritime dock shot posted here! Your fine composition has a nice contrast between the long horizontal carrier and the vertical lamp(?). Exposure and sharpness are good.

A very nicely composed shot. I like the perspective with the buoy in the foreground. A very sharp image and a nice black and white with a fine tonal range.

Cool,Mary Eileen!
When she was commissioned just a week after the end of World War Two she was the largest aircraft carrier in the world and she served our country well for almost fifty years!
Your picture of her makes for an interesting and highly enjoyable image,my friend!
'Good Show'! : )

I like San Diego and really enjoyed watching the naval ships enter and exit the naval ship yard. This black and white version of the ship creates a serious mood to this scene. The gray streaked sky is pleasing.

Well focused, the image is clear, good Black and White conversion, good tonal variations, interesting subject matter, I wish you had left a bit more space on each side of the ship, but that may not have been possible without loosing detail, well presented!
