Nice shot. I didn't know that such a ship existed.

Nice captures Alan, just nipped the back of the ship off in number two, good composition otherwise.

Thanks John.
I had to do some cropping of the original to get rid of a railing and part of the harbour wall. I had to shoot from this position to get the full name of the ship in. Here is the original.

Thanks Alan, I can now see and appreciate why you cropped the original.

Must have sucked to work on that boat. Think about it, in the middle of water in the cold night with a light above you? These pictures are great! They sure tell a story by just looking at them.

This is a really crappy photo, but it was on an old digital camera. It is a light ship that used to be active here in Australia. It is now at a maritime museum.
