Right click on the photo and select "Search Google for Image". It'll give you all kinds of info on the submarine.

Zoom out a bit and see how far from the channel it is now. It was quite a project, cutting the 4-lane divided road and dragging it up there. It was fun to watch, although admitting that shows my age.

Thanks OutOfControl, My computer doesn't do that as you suggest, but I'll try to get that image into a Google search somehow.


Good tip.

Are those the proverbial screen doors on that Sub? Actually I was on board the Albacore at the Portsmouth Naval yard in 1958 at an open house. The climb down that hatch was pretty scary for a 6 year old.

Good tip.

It's not "your computer", it's your browser that doesn't do that.
Chrome offers "Search image with Google lens"

Edge offers: "Search the web for image"



For Firefox: right click on the image, select "Copy Link" and go to
https://tineye.com/ and paste the link.


Actually that last option is available in all browsers and in my experience works best.

Thanks StuM! It worked well.

Meanwhile...

I did the search, and it was attributed to a well known photoshop artist.

You can't unsee it and you likely will never imagine mermaids [merman] in the same manner as before seeing it.
