    This “old world treatment” works well James – it hides all the modern clutter that often get in the way of these beautiful ships – well done!♥

    she looks great and they way youve treated the shot is superb reflector. MS

  • reflector replied

    Thank you ! The lighting was problematic and looking at the back of the camera was discouraging – most exposures looked dull and flat. I went home early, only to discover that they were much better than they looked outdoors. Thanks for the fave – I’ll visit your Gallery soon.

    James I saw the NBN news capture of the James Craig coming through the heads and there was a huge swell, she rocked from side to side and would have been brilliant to get an image of it listing to the side and riding the swell … next time!♥

  • reflector replied

    I didn’t know the scheduled arrival time and didn’t want to spend lots of time waiting. It sounds like quite a sight. :)
