Admiral Hornblower

The fancy way to see San Diego Harbor!

 

The Admiral Hornblower is one of the many ways you can take a tour of San Diego harbor. We\'ve never been aboard, the ships we sail on are usually a bit bigger and much more luxurious!

Because of this lens\'s tendency to vignette at length I tried a trick that I learned from Jim Frazier which was throwing a little bit of a reverse vignette in to temper the dark down.

 

Niccy and I packed up the family (Tater Tot and Mushi-Mushi) and headed out on our first adventure!

 

We took the RV on a short shakedown cruise over to San Diego, specifically Point Loma Naval Base.

 

There\'s a nice camping spot on the base, right on the water. No electric, no water, but since we\'re self contained it wasn\'t a problem We spent a couple of days doing absolutely nothing except watching the world pass us by. Exactly the kind of experience we were looking for.

 

PS:

For those in the Show Your EXIF group you should note that the actual lens used is a Tamron AF 18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 Di-II VC All-in-One Zoom for Canon APS-C Digital SLR. For some crazy reason it always shows up as a Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8, a lens I\'ve never owned or used!
