Michigan Exposures: USCG Mackinaw

Monday, May 17, 2010

This is the Coast Guard Ship USCG Mackinaw, which replaces the ship that is now a museum in Mackinaw City. It is an icebreaker but has other duties.

A shot of the front.

The side. It can also be used to pick up oil spills.

A shot of the back.

Mikoyan: I was born in Bay City, Michigan and for the most part I was raised there. My dad was in the Navy, so I spent my first 5 years in Hawaii, Texas and California. For college, I went to Eastern Michigan where I studied Engineering Physics. I caught the photography bug when my mom had me take a photojournalism class in High School. I dabbled a little after college but it never really took off until a couple years ago. If you would like to get a hold of me...e-mail is kozzie_13 at yahoo dot com. Obviously use the @ and . in that.
