Jakov, your impression is spot on.  The ship was designed by Reiji Matsumoto, the creator of the animated TV series "Space Battleship Yamato".

Just experimenting with the new-to-me D810.  Zeiss 100mm f/2 Makro.

Great photo! You must have a really good camera.

Lovely - big big bridge vs tiny train. Well shot with the boy in the foreground, who seems very focussed.
