Fort McHenry from a sailboat in the morning - 2000
From a cruise ship at sunset 2004
The place where Francis Scott Key was anchored (on a British ship) during the bombardment is out by Fort Carroll near what is now Key Bridge. In the summer there is a buoy there marking the spot. I wanted to see this and take a picture of it when I left to go to Bermuda on a cruise ship, but it was too cold to stay out on deck, and I wasn't able to stay outside, plus as you can see it was getting dark.
