Another amazing photo by OneEighteen on Flickr.
A beautiful and almost haunting photo.
As was said:
“The museum ship, USS Texas, built in 1915 is in the foreground. She is the last of the dreadnought class of ships built during that period.

Across the field is the San Jacinto Monument marking the site of the battle where the residents of Texas won their independence from the government of Mexico in 1836.

In the far background, to the right of the monument, one can see the towers of the Fred Hartmann Bridge over 5 miles away.”
