I really like this, it is like a screenprint.

Nice change-up as "bazza" says. Must be the Olympic Range in distance, yes?

Great work, Bill; it does look quite "old-time" in sepia!

Yes, the black/white sure makes for a different view and feel. It's a lot darker, gloomier. It makes one wonder about all the black/white photos one has seen - perhaps they were of a bright scene, but convey a dark impression. Another thing I'm wondering about - is that a container terminal off the ship's port bow, or is it an overloaded container ship? It's difficult to make out in this photo due to the black/white. However, this also makes for interesting contrasts - from black to shades of grey to near white. In my teaching I've preferred black/white illustrations to bring out depth information. Nice going! :-)

This really looks great in monochrome, Bill! And I can see by the barge behind her, she's apparently not carrying containers on her deck. Still - she's a big one! Thanks for those links, I'll have to check them out!
