Solway Harvester

Went for a walk around Douglas Harbour at lunch time. The battery on my camera was almost dead, so didn't have much time to experiment. I took this shot of the Solway Harvester, a scallop dredger from Scotland that sank 11 years ago off the coast of the Isle of Man, taking all seven crew with her. There was a force 9 gale, and the holding tanks for the catch filled with water, and it sank.
