Aurora Australis, Antarctic Icebreaker Ship

Dramatically orange against the heavy rain clouds that were lifting just at sunset, Aurora Australis winters in Hobart, Tasmania. It's a research and support ship that summers in the Antarctic, and is soon to be replaced with a newer model.

Fabulous ship and shot!

Another clever composition, the way you have cropped gives a feeling of dominance which of course this icebreaker has.

[Brandi]

A very dramatic shot. Love this.

The red is a very dramatic colour. I like the heaviness of the sky!
