Not from a Cunard ship…but sunset on Oct. 3, from Oceania Regatta in Santa Barbara, California.

Here's another chance to get double use from a port webcam. After posting a nighttime shot from this Port de Québec webcam last evening on the "QM2 location" thread, this morning has presented an opportunity to post a Québec sunrise image with QM2 from that same webcam on this thread.

Instead of a sunrise today I'll post sunset from yesterday, from the deck of Crystal Serenity:

Fantastic pix from both @rakkorand @rafinmd.  Thank you.
The only problem is that don’t know what time of day it is now!

Here's a capture of today's sunrise with QE at Naples, Italy. This is from Baltic Live Cam's "Molo Beverello" webcam.

That’s great that QE can tie up right at the dock in. In Naples, can most cruise ships go straight to the docks or do some need a tender?

I imagine it is deep enough for anything. I have been there in QE2, which had a deep drought, docked in exactly the same place as her successor, at the wonderful terminal. There seem to be four ships berthed in Naples today, not all at the Stazione Maritima.

Sorry draught. There was always plenty to drink!

Here's an afternoon capture from the same webcam showing a bit of the monster cruise ship Costa Toscana (6,000+ passenger capacity) at the far left also at the Stazione Marittima. Marella Voyager is also docked at Naples today along with several large ferries.

Yes, you are right. I thought the MSC ship was a cruise ship, but it is a ferry. Sorry.

When we were in Naples last September on QE one of Royal Caribbean's Monstrosity of the Seas was also in so I'm assuming most will fit

 

This was it in Rome the day before Naples, but you get the idea

I’m sure there are more flattering views, but even so. I don’t think they even go down that far.

These mega ships terrify me!  It seems that popular ports and cruising areas are restricting access yet mega ships are being cranked out left and right. 
I don’t get it.
