Queen Victoria sails from Lyttelton, Canterbury, New Zealand

Until a few minutes before the event it looked like I would have been the pilot on board her for the departure. Luckily a last minute change meant I was able to do the container ship instead and get a snap as we passed. This was the only one of several squences that was willing to co-operate. 'Port to port' for passing as we say.

When all lights you see ahead
Starboard wheel and show your red.

Beautiful shot. That is job that must present quite a few great photo opportunities. Well done.

That's a brilliant shot and with a fabulous cloud formation.
QV visits Liverpool UK 26th July 2010 apparently and i'm praying for a sky like that heh heh.
