A reject that came close to making it....
« on: June 07, 2007, 07:29:16 PM »
This was one of my candidates for the current collaboration.....

It was made through the periscope of a Russian submarine.  Mind you I'm a chronic claustrophobic, so climbing through tiny doorways in a tiny "Foxtrot" class sub underwater was quite a challenge for me.
The Diana clone handled the adventure effortlessly.  :)

The sub is part of the San Diego Maritime Museum tour.  Well worth the visit if you're ever in that part of the world!
 :)
The aircraft carrier in the view is the USS Ronald Reagan.

I guess looking through the periscope of a russian sub is much like using a kiev.

Oh and Becky, great idea for a shot. China and the Soviet Union combining. Hands across the sea. World peace. Beautifal, man. Beautiful!    ;D
