Second, sorry, "the_d", but not all crude oils are "very thick fluids" - something like a Kern crude oil (from California) is as black as asphalt, but some crudes look much like a dirty diesel oil, and many crudes have easily enough light ends in them to spread out and form a rainbow on the sea surface. I agree though, that this picture is just Newtons rings from the photo itself. Richard (Master Mariner, Tankers) Um…..First, that’s not a container ship, it’s a tanker.

Oil does leave a lighter shad sheen, it could be diesel or gas but more than likely it is the picture. Get your facts straight. This is NOT a containership, rather a crude or chemical tanker.

That's an overlay problem. Why? #1. The boat's shadow is on the water, not on the seabed. #2. They'd never leave a submerged vessel of that size in the center of that shipping lane. It would cause too much danger to the vessels coming in and out of the ports. #3. It's actually the boat you see clearly in the photo just a little while after it moved. See this edited picture to compare the tail ends. http://www.cycleiwakuni.com/img2.jpg Definitely NOT a submerged ship to the east. That’s an overlay problem.

If you see blue water, don't be fooled. That's just a trick of the lens. I have been to Galveston, and if it’s not oil/pollution from THIS ship, then it’s from another ship.
