Ghost Ship

Ghost Ship

This vessel is a Chesapeake Bugeye Ketch which represents a working era on the Chesapeake that has all but disappeared.

This photo was taken about 7:30 one Easter morning at the Annapolis Dock, Maryland.


The beauty of a reflected, inverted image is that the background is uncluttered, thus emphasizing the lines of the vessel.

This image encouraged me to shoot more water reflections, which I now call "water palettes."
