WQOOOW ! What a fantastic ship and the water is flat as a floor. Amazing capture. And a scary story. Bravo !!
It's so beautiful and very interesting history !!! :)
Nicely captured image - not sure about the colours though !
The low light angle has given a nice colour to this replica ship. I saw the recovered remains in Freemantle and was shocked to see the bones and read the horrific story. Background to the replica and a new ship being built can be found at http://www.bataviawerf.nl/en/
Excellent work!!!!
I love these ships. All are so rich in history and seem to be alive. Great shot!

A gruesome story. Well told!
Love it !
