The Shipyards Of St. Petersburg, Russia At 5 A.M.

Best seen in original size

From my gallery, “Photographs from Our Voyage to the Baltic”

Note that the EXIF data say 10:09 P.M. on July 23. St. Petersburg is seven hours ahead of Detroit, and I had not changed the date and
time of my camera. This shot was motivated by the fact that at 5 A.M. I had to get up and go to the bathroom! When I peeked
out of the curtains of our cabin I saw this view, and my camera was lying on the sofa next to me.

It's as if the shipyard were on fire - an illusion, surely, to the constant activity that will take place in the coming workday.
