One more submarine photograph. I'll tell you one thing: this sub was aching and breaking my back! I am too tall for this line of work and there is really no place I can stand upright in this tube. The word claustrophobic suddenly had a new meaning to me.

Just chill.
Paul many years ago when i was in the navy i tested well for sub service. I was six foot and 190 lbs. Went aboard to see what it would be like and requested a distroyer. NO WAY it was to tight for me as well. Nice to make picture of but to compact to live on.

Hello Paul.... Did you use a long shutter-speed and a narrow aperture?.... Superb wide depth of field in this picture which is sharp and in focus....Excellent low light photography....Well done....All the very best to you Paul...............................Mick.

I was claustrophobic before you took me on this tour! I guess it takes short men with certain mind sets to do this kind of thing. I can't even begin to imagine what kind of psychology an astronaut must have to 'keep grounded', (pun intended)

That's why a lot of submariners in the past were on the short side, and why many of the normal Naval rules and regulations were relaxed on a sub. It made living in close quarters like this bearable.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Outstanding photo Paul!! The only submarine I have ever been in was the one at Disneyland in 1962! I was not so tall then:):) Nice capture buddy.

It is certainly a cramped place. Good job of showing us.

It looks so chaotic! Too many things packed tightly in a small place, you better be careful, I see too many switches and livers. Good shot, very well captured. You have a feeling of standing right in this place seeing this one. Well done

If "Ignorance is bliss", why should we seek knowledge?
Wide angle lens, Canon 17-40 mm at 17 on a ff camera.
Aperature f5.6 at ISO2000, you don't need more on a wide angle lens to reach good sharpness in the corners.
