The first photo was included simply because I like it.  The sunset cast a golden hue over the entire ship and the smooth water reflected an almost mirror image of Texas.  The other photos are distorted wide angle shots that take in the entire ship from totally opposite viewing positions.

The first two photos fully display not only the now unique reverse sweep bow, but also show that its entry into the water was extremely fine.  The torpedo blisters added in the twenties significantly altered the ship's hull characteristics.  The right photo shows not only the ship's stern, but also the patch that hides the 5" gun mount abandoned before WWI.

The middle photo shows the ledge on the hull formed by the top of the torpedo blister.  You can also see the patched over insets in the hull for two 5" mounts that were abandoned during the 1925-27 modernization.  The right photo provides a detailed view of the foremast that includes (starting from the top) main battery control, forward lookouts and secondary battery control in the "fighting top".  Midway up the supports and projecting ahead with a rounded front was where a director for the 3" guns once sat.  It rested directly on top of the admiral's bridge, and immediately below that was the navigation bridge.  The small structure below the bridge and behind turret #2 is the armored conning tower.

These last photos are obviously taken from different positions on board the ship.  The second from the left, that includes the San Jacinto Monument, shows the excellent view from the navigation bridge.
