On a special trip on Friday I got these two shots. Look jewelry-like don't they?
The pictures were actually take on board the USS Cole, a US Navy ship. Yes, that USS Cole. I am ENORMOUSLY PROUD to say my brother is it's captain. On Friday they had a "Friends and Family" cruise and Emma and I got to go along with Andrew's wife Cynthia on a day's cruise in and around Norfolk. Emma, not one to be effusive, said on the ride home, "Today was a really great day." You said it sister! Take a look at all the other macro goodness here.
Wow your brother is captain of the Cole? How awesome is that! Perfect weather for a cruise too!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely a lot to be proud of! We tried for 2 years to go on a friends and family cruise out of Norfolk with my nephew aboard his ship the USS Truman and it always happened when we couldn't leave work. The rest of the family got to go and loved it too! Great shot of the rope and fencing!
ReplyDeleteAwesome pictures of the rope! Sounds like you had a great time on the cruise.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool that you were able to take a ride on the USS Cole and your brother is the Capt! Awesome photos and glad you all had a great time!
ReplyDeleteWow! What an amazing trip you had. Don't you love how macro can make something look so completely different!!
ReplyDeleteThat first shot of the rope is superb! How awesome to have been enjoying yourself while you collected these shots! Yay!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! THE Cole. And WOW you're brother is the captain...I'm sure you're very proud indeed. Sounds like a fantastic day.
