Formerly the armored turret barbette for USS Arizona's #3 triple 14-inch gun mount, today the barbette remains one of the only pieces of USS Arizona which lie above the surface of Pearl Harbor.
A barbette is a protective circular armor feature around a cannon or heavy artillery gun. The name comes from the French phrase en barbette referring to the practice of firing a field gun over a parapet (defensive wall) rather than through an opening (embrasure).
Following the loss of Arizona, the gun turrets from both her #3 and #4 mounts were removed and repurposed as coastal defense batteries on Oahu, named Battery Pennsylvania and Battery Arizona. The Number 3 Gun Turret was emplaced at Battery Pennsylvania on Oahu's East Coast after an extensive construction period, and was test fired once on V-J Day.
Photography is all about using light to capture the emotion and beauty of a fleeting moment. For me, this adventure began with a single spring image using a small Kodak film camera of a freshly watered central Kansas ditch and has come full circle using modern digital techniques. My first camera was acquired by trading an ancient Royal typewriter to a fellow college student who was desperate to finish a term paper. It was a long time ago and that camera was my passport to an art that has fascinated me ever since. I owned and operated a professional studio in central Kansas for 20 years and moved to Colorado in 1994. Part of the studio's early success came from creating outdoor portraiture using controlled lighting...
