Taken shortly after sunset at Baltimore's Inner Harbor. The ship on the left is the USS Constellation, originally built in 1854. The ship on the right is a training frigate from the Brazilian Navy, called, appropriately enough, the Brasil, built in 1983.
I was amazed when I looked at the EXIF data and discovered this was 1/4 second exposure. It was at 18mm, f3.5 and ISO 800, but it was also HANDHELD. Pretty sharp for a handheld quarter-second exposure, if I do say so myself.
