This week’s photo challenge, calls for an image that represents something unusual to me. So, I picked this photo, taken during this past holiday season. A replica of the Pinta and the Nina, (Columbus ships) sailed into town for an exhibit, and promptly anchored at Fisherman’s Village Marina in Punta Gorda, FL.
I just had to go see if I could take a picture; after all, this is not the usual type of vessel that is normally found at the marina. I am so glad I was able to take this shot! The ship looks so magnificently out-of-place in this environment; but hey, it served my purpose!
