Transkei Shipwreck

[JohnReid]

Not to sure how long ago this happened, or how the captain managed to ram it up the beach, but the ship was known as the Jacaranda.

WoW!! Beautiful shot and nice effect. Have you played around with it in photoshop for different effects? A shipwreck like this gives you the opportunity to realy play around with it!
Great choice for a photo!

Thanks for the comments Rose, all I've done to the photo was a levels adjustment and sharpened it. I had a batch of about 500 to go through from the Transkei so I never spent much time on any of the images.

Very nicely done. Great shot at low light. Do you have other variations/compositions of this subject?

Great shot John. The silky water is appropriate for a shipwreck. Gives it a haunted and ghostly feel. Well done! Cheers......thekman.
