Week 23 - FADED
I tried a few shots of items that the colour had faded on, but wasn't happy with any.
So I tried a different approach - Faded Glory.
This is the HMS Wellington - at one time performing protectorate duties for British Crown Colonies in the South Pacific.
She was recalled for the second World War, and entered into convoy duties in the North Atlantic. She took part in a total of 103 Atlantic Convoys and is the last surviving dedicated Battle of the Atlantic escort vessel in Britain.
Today, you can hire her for corporate events.
While I do scoff at that somewhat, far better that she survived and is still useful.

Black and white conversion because there's been nothing but flat grey skies any time I've been out with my camera.
