Best "unique" photo you've taken of a ship.

[marinearchit]

If you're camera sometimes captures wierd pictures, cool lighting effects, etc. and if that's happened when you took a picture of a ship, or the picture is just really unique, post it here.

 

These pictures both came out like this because of the angle of the sun. Both were taken on very sunny days.

I took these on the HAL Statendam on sail day at Canada Place, Vancouver, under very gloomy skies.

 

The bell on the Statendam's bow:

 

 

Sail Archtecture from the rail of the Statendam

 

 

Dolphin's Eye View of Canada Place:

 

Going through my shots, I am reminded how few shots I took of the ship... sigh... I probably took more shots of gulls that afternoon.

The Tahitian Princess had better give up some gold or the pirates will have their say....

What are those jet engines doing up there? Is the Coral Princess trying to set a cruise ship speed record????

 

 

At night they light up the jets and zoom from port to port...

 

:D

Love the Monarch fog picture...and everytime I see the Princess fire pic it still freaks me out...nothing to say the same thing couldnt happen on a transatlantic...

I really like the pictures posted. Nice work folks. Here are a couple from a recent cruise on the QM2. She looks imposing and lonely. Taken in Barbados.

Kinda unique. We had an at-sea rescue for a injured passenger and since we were not allow up front to watch the copter... they televised it on the CCTV. I happened to take a shot of the rescue on our cabin TV.
