In fact, I've never seen one out of water before. Thanks for that experience...

Looks to me like it must have been travelling at a hell of a speed to end up there mate. PAUL

Very cool! I love submarines. We have the submarine museum in New London, CT & some of the earliest nuclear subs are located there "on land"! Awesome things.

Hi there,
thanks for showing this image, I love submarines as they are so rarely captured on camera. This is a really nice image and I was wondering if this is an "Oberon" Class submarine that we used to have here in the UK for the Royal Navy? Anyway I have included a small image of another submarine out of water, this one is quite famous. Maybe she was one of the first in battle? I hope you like it.
