Description:  Photograph copyrighted by Nautical Research Group that shows the fallen mast as it lies across the bow of RMS Titanic. In this photo you can clearly see the outlet from the mast where the crow's nest resides and Frederick Fleet said the infamous word "Iceberg right ahead". Mr Fleet proceeded to ring the bell three times (you can see the bell stanchion in top right of photo) and then telephoned the bridge. The large void to the left of the mast is a cargo hold.

Rusticles on Bow
Description:  Photograph copyrighted by Nautical Research Group that shows a close-up shot of the bow sprit of RMS Titanic. In this photo, you can see the growth of rusticles on the ship. These rusticles are highly developed communities that are by-products of bacterial microbes that are consuming the steel of Titanic. You can not see the individual microbes but you can see the plankton in the water that we feel might play a pivitol role in the microbial decay of Titanic.
