Nice shot Frank - I love mighty vessels, especially when close up to them (same as airplanes) never ceases to amaze me how they stay afloat Im no good at reading nautical flags Is this a UK ship or from farther afield?

Irish company.

Hmm, it seems you missed the bit in the rules and George's reminder about only posting two images per day Frank. This is an interesting composition with the mooring ropes leading the eye up to the bow of the ship, across the side and then down the jib of the unloading machine. The focus seems to fall off a bit from left to right and I'm wondering if one of the camera focus points picked up the nearside rope instead of the anchor hawsepipe which would have been the best place to get maximum depth of field. She's got a lovely clean bottom! A bight and colourful shot to start off with Frank.

Nice POV the ropes look almost 3d as they disappear into the corner, Keith mentions the focus it looks pretty good on my monitor but perhaps a larger file size ( up to 250K ) may also help.

thanks for comments - at 4500px everything seesm to be sharp. I just reduced the file size to less than 250k approx. maybe I will try to find closer to the maximum.

The best pov for a dramatic shot of a big boat is this, from the mooring bollard, up the rope and away along the hull, the eye taking everything in as it goes. Bright with lovely colours and a lot to enjoy.
If I expand it to full screen then there is just a tad oof on the Liebherr 944, but not enough to spoil this 'action' shot. Well done Frank a good one to come in with.
Some useless info.

Hello Frank. Some good advice from Keith and George. I like the way the bow fills a lot of of the frame.
