RE: #piratesunday: The 2012 Canada 10 Dollars HMS Shannon Commemorative - War of 1812

"Ships represent Commerce, exploration, communication and freedom... until someone decided to put guns on them." ~ The Bloody Raven
I believe Artist Boonie Ross used this picture as the Model for her painting of the 1806 which was actually the 1855 Steam powered version of the HMS Shannon. And when this generation of the ship retired, the English Built the 1905 Armored Cruiser HMS Shannon. etc etc Then there is the USS Shannon from Star Trek, so I got a little carried away in my research. A pirates work is never finished. ☠️
