"Pelican In The Ocean City" - a photo on Flickriver

            The Barbican, Plymouth, Devon
.

The Pelican Of London stopped over in Plymouth during its latest voyage, this time around the ports of the UK. I new that I wanted to try to get a few images of her docked in the harbour. My time was limited as I only had a brief time before I was due for a shift at work. So I headed down early in the morning. I wasn't early enough to capture any sunrise colour, but the light as this time was still beautiful. I took images using a number of different compositions. But I think this was one of my favourites. I rather liked the reflections of the Barbican buildings in the still waters.

The Pelican Of London is a sail training ship based in the United Kingdom. Built in 1948 as Pelican she served as an Arctic trawler, and then coastal trading vessel until 1995. In 2007 an extended conversion to a sail trading ship was completed. Its next voyage is to complete a voyage around the UK in preparation of retracting the route of Charles Darwin on his journey onboard the HMS Beagle.
