One of my favorite images from Bryce Canyon last winter with the Sinking Ship all surrounded by morning fog.
The fife rail on the lower main mast , a scene on the 19th century iron hulled Barque James Craig . Built in Sunderland, England in 1874 , originally named Clan Macleod , she was renamed James Craig in 1905 . She was found sunk and abandoned in 1972 as a rusty rotting hulk in isolated Recherche Bay Tasmania . Patched up and refloated she was taken to Hobart where she remained while vital repairs were carried out for safe towing to Sydney in 1981 , There the serious business of a total restoration began . Through hardship and the generous donations of many the restoration was finally completed in 2001 . Today James Craig is one of only four 19th century tall ships that go to sea regularly .
She is owned by the Sydney Heritage Fleet .

This shard of ice on a frozen pond captured the fiery glow of a late afternoon sun. With tree litter scattered over the flat surface and picking up the light, it felt to me like an ice ship, drifting through a galaxy of stars. The still-green leaf, embedded in the top, just made it more so.
The ship used to be home to a bunch of gulls but the cormorants have taken over. The larger birds seem to be making their mark as the masts have taken on a decidedly different coloration

The German Reichsmarine´s training ship Gorch Fock (1) under full sail off Aotearoa, New Zealand ab. 1935. My restoration and digital hand colorization of Cliff Hawkins´ photo in the New Zealand Maritime Museum archive.
I did not paint the flag, as I was not certain about the colors. To me it looks like the German flags with colors black, red and yellow. Hopefully someone with better knowledge can help me out so that I can add the colors.
PS
I based my caption on the information given by the New Zealand Maritime Museum. A couple of German commentators are now saying that the photograph actually shows the new Gorch Fock (II), built in 1958. If that is the case, it also solves the flag problem. The flag in the black and white picture very much looks like the present German flag with the colors black, red and yellow.
"The Gorch Fock is a tall ship of the German Navy (Deutsche Marine), built in 1958 as a replacement for the original Gorch Fock built in 1933 which was taken as war reparations by the Soviet Union after World War II, renamed Tovarishch, and returned to Germany in 2003."

NOAA Ship Fairweather in Kachemak Bay, Alaska. The Fairweather is designed and outfitted primarily for conducting hydrographic surveys in support of nautical charting, but the ship is capable of many other missions in support of NOAA programs. The Fairweather is equipped with the latest in hydrographic survey technology –- multi-beam survey systems; high-speed, high-resolution side-scan sonar; position and orientation systems; hydrographic survey launches; and an on-board data-processing server. The Fairweather is named for Mt. Fairweather in southeast Alaska, which is the highest peak in the Fairweather Range -- the tallest coastal range on Earth.

Buque de carga general "Chelm", un clásico construido en Polonia, atracado en este puerto de las islas Canarias hace ya unos cuantos años.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General cargo ship "Chelm", an old lady built at Poland, berthed at this port in Canary Islands around 13 years ago.
It's that time of year to try building a SHIP again! I've pretty much got the technic frame and plate hull roughed out, but I think I want to widen the rear section by 4-6 studs to make room for the engines. This will be a remake of a classic SHIP by another builder, so hopefully I can do it justice! So far, it's 153 studs, but will end up around 165.
Eastern Yacht Club Commodore William F. Weld´s schooner Gitana - one of the fastest of her time - photographed (prob.) in 1892. My colorization of an image in the Library of Congress archive (Detroit Publishing Co. collection).
Gitana was a keel schooner designed and built by D. J. Lawlor of Boston for William F. Weld II in 1882. LOA 114-6ft. LWL 97-4ft. (Lengthened forward and alterations made to her spars by W. B. Smith of Boston in 1886.)
Weld, the grandson of the famous Massachusetts shipowner and industrialist William F. Weld I, was not allowed to use his beautiful yacht for very long after this photograph was taken. Already on January 11, 1893 the Harvard Crimson wrote in its obituary:
"Commodore William F. Weld, '76 died, at his home in Brookline on Sunday evening at 8 o'clock. Mr. Weld died of heart failure, the direct result of a severe attack of diphtheria. He contracted a severe cold while skating, and it developed into diphtheria. It was confidently expected that he would recover but Sunday night he had a relapse from which he was unable to rally.
Mr. Weld received the title of Commodore from the Eastern Yacht Club. He was intensely interested in yachting owning the famous schooner yacht Gitana.Mr. Weld was a member of the Country Club, and also a member of leading social clubs in Boston, including the Algonquin, Union, Somerset, St. Botolph and Tavern clubs. He was also a member of prominent clubs in New York and Philadelphia.Mr.
Weld was 37 years old. He was born in Boston in 1856, and graduated from Harvard in 1876."
