Elsid, the last one is indeed really nice.  Love the color and the moment you captured.

Thanks Jakov.
I used a Panasonic LX-3 with an aquapac waterproof case. I spend a lot of time in the ocean with the camera (particularly at the end of the day) exploring the different perspectives enabled by the waterproof case.
I really like this image, my only regret is that i wasn't shooting raw so I only have a jpeg... You live and learn!!

Originally this was meant to be a test shot of my newly purchased AF-S 24/1.8.  But it turned to be appropriate for this thread (hopefully).

Great shot super!

Thanks, Mike, the ship is indeed Russian.

The location is the Grand Harbour of Valletta, which you presumably visited in your naval career.
