USS Stephen W. Groves (FFG-29) at Key West

Original
Reason
Self-nomination. I've never tried for a featured picture before, and I thought this one might be worthy. If not, I'd appreciate feedback so I can improve my efforts. Thanks. JKBrooks85 23:48, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Proposed caption
The Stephen W. Groves (FFG-29) as seen at sunset in Key West on July 22, 2007. This ship is typical of the frigates, destroyers, and smaller military vessels that call at the port. Larger ships, such as aircraft carriers, are prohibited due to their deep draft and the shallowness of the harbor.
