A lounge outside "Angelo's" and "Dragon Lady" restaurants. P&O Australia have done an excellent job in refurbishing the ship. The food eaten in these two restaurants is included in one's fare, so one can imagine how popular they were. The main restaurant, Waterfront, offers dining that's included in one's fare. I must mention the staff. They are so professional, kind and friendly. Very well trained, lovely people.
A ship crosses the glowing sea, its silhouette etched against a burning southern sunset — a quiet farewell to the day.
Snowboard photography is hard work sometimes. When we were shooting this massive 50-50 last January here in Oulu, Finland, it was about -20 degrees celsius and the wind was blowing at least 10 m/s. After two hours on the completely exposed sea ice, there's little you can do to keep warm. But sometimes it pays off, this ended up on the cover of Onboard magazine.
Hasselblad w/ 150mm, Kodak 400NC, 1/250 at f/5.6. Lit with one Sunpak 120J and one Nikon SB-28, all my other flashes had died at this point. Triggered with PW's, they needed a battery swap as well.
I've posted these for a friend who is thinking of going on a cruise. The best way to convince a person that a cruise is the only way to travel is have them sit in Houston traffic for an hour. Cruising means a city on the water without a car to drive.
The air-hostess is onboard and the train is rushing on to Copenhagen airport. Actual departure was 1 minute behind schedule, as you can see on the clock in the background. For those wishing to brush up their Swedish, there's a great text about train delays on the board below 2b.
