The Last photos of the Kalakala Ferry. I was fortunate to be invited aboard the Kalakala Ferry as she was towed to her final resting place. I felt honored to be the last photographer to document her voyage through the dark of night to the spot where cranes were waiting to quickly disassemble and reduce her to a pile of rusting metal on the dock. It was an exhilarating, wet and very long night. At the end you could feel and see, myself included, the emotion of seeing this grand dame reduced to ruble.
