This is the USS Consitution, affectionately known as Old Ironsides. It was built in 1797 as part of the original six frigates ordered by the fledgling U.S. Navy. It is still a part of our country’s Navy and the world’s oldest commisioned warship that is still afloat. It continues to be manned by a Navy crew and our National Park Service brings visitors through to tour the ship. These images were made on separate shoots; one in the morning and the other in the evening.
Amazing history and great shots of Old Ironside
It is an amazing history. Thank you so much. Cheers!
Great colors on the second image! Very nice.
Thank you, Teri. Did you visit the Constitution when you came to Boston? It was likey still in dry dock. They just did a restoration and it looks great.
We drove past it but never got around to going to see it. Right now I’d like to visit Legal’s for some seafood 🙂
Come and get it! Legal’s is realy good. It’s been a while since I’ve been there.
Fantastic photos! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Mickey. It was my pleasure. Cheers!
