The photos were excellent - were these taken on the Maiden W/bound Transatlantic Trip to New York and did you enjoy your trip onboard the QM2?

 

I was also wondering what 'settings' you used to take such excellent photos especially vis-a-vis the lighting / exposure? I have a Canon Powershot A20 Digital Camera and whilst I can take excellent daytime shots - those at night & or onboard a ship tend to be rather 'hit & miss' type photos - some are good & some are terrible (I sometimes use the slow sync option but then the photos are sometimes blurred!!!). Any advice or comments re the above would be much appreciated - I was wondering if perhaps the fact that the camera has 2.1 megapixels - I know some of the more modern cameras have 3 + mega pixels + has something to do with this?

 

Thanks once again for sharing your photos.

Liner Guy - Yes, I wish I was still on board. Looks like you already have plans to return. Lucky you! I loved that ship. We spent the whole time exploring, needed to time just enjoy our favorite spots.

 

RJMS - Hi there. I have a Sony, only 3.1 megapixels. I experiment with the flash on and flash off. Sometimes the flash off works better when it isn't bright but it isn't real dark either. I also use Adobe Photoshop Elements to correct the images and lighten them up. It really helps!
