The above image of the USS Iwo Jima passing under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge was taken by David Tan during last year’s Fleet Week on May 25, 2011.

For this shot, David used a Konica Autoreflex T3 with Kodak Gold 200 film.

To see more of David’s awesome work, please visit his blog at dtan.blogspot.com.
