If you will go to Baltimore, MD you will love its waterfront ... and in one of the canals of the harbor you will find a small surprise ... THE LAST PEARL HARBOR SURVIVOR ... here it is, in fact, resting the TANEY ...
...today it is a floating museum ... but it is also ... the LAST AFLOAT WARSHIP WHICH SAW ACTION DURING THE PEARL HARBOR ATTACK OF DECEMBER 7, 1941 ... after that has been used in action in WWII, Vietnam War, in some anti narcotic action and as Coast Guard patrolling (you can see its last dress in the picture) ... anyway now it is retired ... but still afloat ... to me it looks like it has a pretty good health ... and it will stay like this for several decades ... so SON'T RUSH TO BALTIMORE JUST TO SEE IT ... you will have time to do it ... and if you will end up in Baltimore you will find more interesting things to do than to get aboard an old stinky warship ... :O

This is a very interesting picture Andrea! Simple and visually pleasing. Really like the way the angle, black and water reflection create the central symmetrical shape. It really draws you in. I can't seem to only see 'just a boat at night'. Great job!
You have an eye for taking pictures Andrea! This picture is simple and visually pleasing. Really like the way the angle, black space and water reflection create an interesting central symmetrical shape. It really draws you in. I can't seem to see 'just a boat at night'. Great job!
