Abandoned Ship, Australia
A Captain’s worst fear is having to abandon their ship whilst it sinks into the depths of the sea. Unfortunately, boats sink all the time, but in rare instances, they can be reclaimed by nature. This half-sunken boat has been turned into an island over the years, but it isn’t entirely a natural occurrence. The ship in this photo was the HNLMS Abraham Chrijnssen. It was a dutch ship ordered to retreat to Australia, and the crew covered it in tropical foliage and managed to evade capture. It has since become overgrown and reclaimed by nature.
