The Wreck of the Galleon Monja AzulThe Royal Spanish Trade Galleon Monja Azul has served as a navigational marker, reverent shrine and occasional target practice for almost a hundred years. Perched on a craggy sandbar like a sentinel, the image of a Catholic Nun watches over the narrow passage that provides a precarious channel to the Spanish discovered Las VĂrgenes, now under the protectorate of the royal Navy. When most protestant crews encounter the petrified sister for the first time and inquire for her name in English, a round of guilty snickers arise from the name "Blue Nun".









Wow...those shots are very impressive
ReplyDeleteI agree - Wow these images are indeed fantastic. Any chance you could tell me where you got those palm trees from?

The info of the U.S. distributor is on the bag. I bought 17lbs of them. The packaged arrived as a rapidly disintegrating box with a Chinese shipping label.
