First time posting in this forum, but I’ve got some fabulous news. I’m going to have some uw photos published in a book! They are of the Wells Burt shipwreck in Lake Michigan, 3 miles off Evanston, IL. The Burt was a 3 masted wooden schooner, built in 1873 that went down with all 11 hands in a May 1883 storm. She is 201ft long and is 40ft deep.
I took the photos with an Intova Nova HD. $130 camera. Someone else touched up the color in Lightroom (?). Very green before.
The book should come out next summer.
First pic is of my favorite feature of this wreck - the deadeyes. They were used to manage the rigging. The Burt is sunk into the lake bottom almost up to her railing.
