Taken while cruising the high seas in the middle of nowhere. well, actually the gulf of Mexico . / Took my first cruise. August 2007 with the family.. 11 of us, for my moms 80th birthday… Fascination Ship of the Royal Caribbean
This was my husband’s favorite part of the ship!! I guess I can’t complain…......he won $700 on the slots!
This is Ocean Village 2 (formerly Crown Princess) taken at the Port of Southampton just before it’s official naming ceremony in 2007 (berth 46 has since been converted to form the new Ocean Cruise Terminal). And yes, we did sail on her maiden voyage as well . . . Taken with Olympus Evolt E500 + Zuiko 40-150mm. It’s 2 images stitched together.
When the ocean liner Queen Mary 2 made her initial call at Halifax,Nova Scotia, in 2004, Theodore Too was standing by to help out if needed! If fact, TT is usually on hand to help anyone and anything that may need it. Some years ago, a TV writer decided to produce a local TV children’s show about a tugboat on a harbour, who talked to other tugboats and ships. The show, (Theodore Tugboat)) gained a great deal of popularity,at one time being aired in 80 countries, including PBS in the USA. So much so, that it was decided to create a real Theodore and add the “Too”. Since then, the tug has been a major attraction on Halifax Harbour. There is a wonderful and very complete story behind this, so take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Tugboat, and spend a few minutes to appreciate the work that went into a / charming children’s show and why it was so popular. By the way, The Queen Mary 2 docked by herself! September 25, 2004

I took this with a Canon film camera off and island looking back at the late great SS Norway. She is now cut up in India. This was one great ship even though she was as old as the hills. Use to be the SS France. I had to scan this so the quality is not that good.
FEATURED HISTORIC PLACES SEPT 2009 / FEATURED WORLD CRUISE SHIPS OCT 2009 / September Song (words by Maxwell Anderson/ music Kurt Weil) / When you meet with the young men in early Spring / You court them in song and rhyme / They answer with words and a clover ring / But if you examine the goods they bring / They have little to offer but the songs they sing / And the plentiful waste of time. Oh, it’s a long, long while from May to December / But the days grow short when you reach September / When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame / One hasn’t got time for the waiting game. Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few / September, November / And these few precious days I’ll spend with you / These precious days I’ll spend with you. Many many wonderful versions exist of this wistful old standard that to me seemed appropriate for this shot. My particular favorites are by Art Pepper(instrumental), and Patricia Kaas. / Pictured is Dubrovnik Old Town which has been listed by UNESCO since 1979 as a World Heritage site.
I took this around 6am approaching the Dames Point Bridge in Jacksonville Florida from the deck of the Carnival Fascination. / Approaching from the east handheld using the railing with a D300 and 18 to 105mm Nikkor.
This photo was taken from one of the beautiful Islands we visited on a cruise that we did a few years ago. I loved the contrast of the thatched shelter, with the beautiful blue sea and sand. And the cruise ship (The Pacific Sun) in the distance adds some interest to the photo. I am pretty sure the Island was Ouvea (Vanuatu Islands).
This yacht is “parked” at a side dock in Key West ready for a new adventure. / Photo taken from our ship also docked in Key West / (Jewel of the Seas-Royal Caribbean)
Had to cancel the first upload of this image as it was too brand oriented, so I made a few minor changes. Image was taken at Cosumel, Mexico with my Nikon Coolpix P80 camera. @300 mm lens
