The oldest sea going paddle steamer in the world was sailing from where i work tonight so I stayed behind and took a few pictures, just got an 85mm f1.8 so was a chance to try it out aswell.

Any comments welcome.

nice set of shots, but the angled shots on water just doesn't work for me.

Yes, where is that? Takes me back a few too many years. Had a trip on it in Scotland many, many years ago and it also does trips from Penarth.

Wow...they have quite the load on board. Not sure the angle on the first 3 shots really adds anything to the quality of the images. The photos themselves are very good...lose the tilt and your viewers won't be so seasick.
