Ray66 Posted August 30, 2020 #276 Share Posted August 30, 2020 So Sogne's is Cadiz then. Are people attaching their photos in different ways I wonder? So which is the easiest and quickest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't give away the location of this last one to let it run its course if someone wants to guess without resulting to checking the file name. I spotted that when I opened your latest attachment in my browser and looked at the URL. But the attachment file names are visible within the posts in the Cruise Critic "Forums" and "Tapatalk" smartphone apps. Best to rename your files before attaching them in the future. I changed file name but have posted original said it was easy how about this another maiden call and not repeated I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So which is the easiest and quickest? The way I have been attaching files for this thread to avoid this issue is via Copy/Paste from my photo editing program directly into the reply within my browser on my PC. That way the attachment file name is auto-generated. The attachments I do that way all end up as "image.png" for the file name. If you use the "Drag files here to attach, or choose files..." function in a post, the name of the file you attach that way will be preserved in the attachment file name.

Ray66 Posted August 30, 2020 #279 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Thanks Bluemarble. That was a lot easier that way. Clue: another port from the Baltic cruise. (same port both photos) Edited August 30, 2020 by Ray66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted August 31, 2020 #280 Share Posted August 31, 2020 4 hours ago, bluemarble said: I think that bridge is the Köhlbrandbrücke. I had to look it up, but that's the name I came up with. Apparently the Köhlbrand is a branch of the Elbe in Hamburg. I think we could use @Germancruiser to check my work, though. Correct, it is said bridge. It connects the A7 ( Autobahn) with a little Island in the river Elbe. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemarble Posted August 31, 2020 #281 Share Posted August 31, 2020 @Ray66, your latest photos are from Copenhagen, Denmark. I didn't recognize the location at first because the one time we have cruised into Copenhagen we docked further out at one of the newer Ocean Quay Terminals. But your photos were taken at what I believe is called the Langelinie pier closer to the city center. I was able to come up with a very close match to your first photo (showing a different cruise ship, the Emerald Princess) using google street view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemarble Posted August 31, 2020 #284 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Here's my contribution for today. It may look like there's not a lot to go on in this photo, but it was taken from a popular scenic overlook. It is possible to find other photos online taken from this spot showing these points of land in the context of a wider view of this port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemarble Posted August 31, 2020 #287 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Oh yes, @DaisyDancer, I recognize that one. One again I've been answering too many of these, so I'll leave it for someone else to identify. I think it's a repeat of a port previously posted here, but that's OK. It's a different view of that port. I may have to resort to posting repeats soon myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To help with the angle and the comparison, I think the "big building" I've circled below in red in my previous shot and in @DaisyDancer's shot are the same building.

Oh yeah (hopefully not giving too much away) we discussed this here a while back, didn't we? Looking back, I see Host Hattie was in on that discussion, too.

bluemarble Posted September 1, 2020 #296 Share Posted September 1, 2020 5 hours ago, sogne said: correct 2011 QE this is a a rare port call I think that's Honningsvåg, Norway. Of course one of the ships is Queen Victoria. The other is Fred. Olsen's Black Prince. Since Black Prince was retired by Fred. Olsen in October 2009, that means this photo would have been taken on 15 June 2008, 12 July 2008 or 28 June 2009. Those are the three dates Queen Victoria was in Honningsvåg prior to October 2009. How did I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
