USS Oregon (BB-3) in dry dock
Voting period ends on 27 Sep 2010 at 11:08:08 (UTC)
 * Reason:Because the ship is in the dry dock, the parts normally submerged are visible and the angle is fortunate enough to show the propeller on the opposite board, the gun coverings are also there. Probably the best photo of the ship available. Except insignificant blur, the quality is very good for the 19th century photography.

 * Support I think it makes sense to have this. Very detailed, and sharp, too. The fact that the top 5 metres are cut off is tolerable given how difficult this would presumably be to replace. Papa Lima Whiskey  (talk) 13:51, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Especially given that the ship was ultimately dismantled and sold for scrap. Twilight chill  t   20:26, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
