I did shoot this with a buddy of mine from school. This is my first entry and also a little test on my point of view. I am always looking for a different angle from a classic location.
I shoot this on friday night and i liked the halo around the moon. The skies where on fast move that night to soften down the light in the moon. And the light from around lighten up the old tank for me.
This old tank has ended his days and is waiting to been drag away on the seas to his final locations where he will be hopefully put with the rest of the old iron and melded.

This one is pretty cool, dig the angle it´s shot at and also the blue colors vs. the orange one. Nice start to your DPC career, better score than my first one at least :)

I still can't really tell what this is after seeing it for a while now. Also, I don't think the ring around the moon is helping, if you have a uv filter on, that may be causing it.

Very dramatic, but the tank doesn't read.

Beautiful shot, i really like the golden glow on the takn. I might have cropped just a bit off the bottom to get rid of the dark island.
