Amadeo

This one fits not in the current England-stream, it's the wreck of Amadeo, rotting on the shores of San Gregorio, Strait of Magellan. The 1st PiP shows an old image of the ship. Built in 1884 by Interocean, Jose Menendez bought the ship in 1892, the first steam boat in this region, which transported wool to Europe for decades. Tonnage 412 grt, beached since 1932. Now fast erosion destroys the remains, especially the seaside and the back. It was quite scary to climb into the belly from the seaside - see other PiPs.

... a wonderful little exposition ... the PiP's are great: informative and adventurous ... the ominous steely sky sets a mood ... the PiP with the view down the anchoring chain is a breathtaking shot, worthy of being posted by itself (framed and hung, even) ...

Kann ich gut nachvollziehen, dass bei der angespannten Ankerkette kein Wohlbefinden im Rumpf aufkommen kann. Aber sehr eindrucksvolle Serie geworden.

This is just fabulous Berny............a threatening sky, glorious light and colours and a wonderful old rusty wreck in a beautiful location. Just perfect..!!

The images in the PiPs of the interior of the ship are works of art on their own...........the detail you've captured is amazing.........even more impressive when you realise you must have had to take the photos fairly fast..!!

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! BENNY!!! OMG!!!! This series of pictures completely blows me away! All I could do was say out loud, "WOWWWW!!! WOWWWW!!! WOWWW!!!!!"

The main picture is just outstanding, so cool and rust-tastic! Then I read about the story of this ship and first I was amazed that you knew its name...but then I saw the name for myself--how nice that you had an identity. To see the first PiP really puts it into perspective. We get to see what it looked like when it was "alive"...and then, the 2nd PiP...that's when you could probably hear me outside the house when I yelled, "WOWWWWWW!!!!"...lol...that's my favorite of your presentation because the whole ship can be seen with its name. I love the perspective and view down the chain to the ship. The clouds behind really add mood to this picture. The details, rich color, texture and tone are outstanding. The RUST! OH THE LOVELY RUST!! Then the next insets, especially 3 and 5, are incredible! All three of the inside images fill out your presentation. What a spectacular show. Thank you for taking the time to share this series with us, it was wonderful. :)

Le bateau se désagrège lentement , une belle série et intéressante. Je préfère la deuxième, la vue de 3/4 car on découvre tout le bateau. La chaise au 1er plan qui mène jusqu'à l'épave est très bien vu.
Le ciel est beau et rend encore plus dramatique la série
