In Transit No More
by Jerry Curtis

This old steel whaling ship lies rusting in Kitchuses, Newfoundland.
The owner intended to cut it up for scrap, but died before getting to the task...

Thanks Jerry. This brought back fond memories of a similar vessel on the beach of Guam during my Navy days in 1952. Dale

Great shot, Jerry and a perfect title! I like the color version better but then I am just not a B&W person ;-)) Love the orangey color on the rocks to complement the hull of the ship. Nicely done.

Very nice. Sad yet romantic at the same time.

Jerry, this reminds me of a pirate's hull. An awesome photo. The Hand of Time sure took its toll on this lovely old vessel.
