there's a submarine in my parking lot


Ok, not a whole submarine, just the sail.

It's the sail from the USS Triton, the first submarine to circumnavigate the globe underwater (1960), following Magellans historic route. ( 1519-22).

The sail now resides in Richland, WA at a site prepared specifically as a monument, dedicated on November 10, 2011.

All shots with the NEX-5N & either the 16mm prime or the 18-55mm kit zoom.

16mm


16mm


18-55. Notice the perspective difference? All the following shots are with the 18-55.


















And this last shot because my car is a photo hog and it provides a bit of scale.
