    It was so nice to get away from home and point my camera at some ships for the first time in 20 months. The light was pretty grim most of the time and my upper body is still aching from holding up the canon 28 - 300 L lens, but I didn't care a jot! :D

    Some nice boats there John. They make the 'Ben My Chree' look a bit sad!

    IMHO the current Ben is a travesty of her predecessor

    Oooops, sorry, :oops: should have used the word 'vessel' :rolleyes:. Is it the cane or 100 lines? ;).
    My shot was taken from Rossall Point in January 2010.

    And yet, trains run in connection with ships are commonly known as BOAT trains. Indeed when I worked in DMO Wimbledon, one of my duties was arranging the Boat Trains to/from Soton.

    Nice shots John.

    I know the feeling - I went to Duxford on Saturday for the flying day there, which was basically an airshow in all but name. First time in a couple of years I've had to stand around with a 150-600mm lens for 5 hours, and I certainly knew about it when I got home! Last few events I've been to I've either been with the wife, so we've taken chairs, or fly ins where it's a lot more relaxed and you're not constantly taking photos.

    Yes, but not as nice as her Cammell Laird built predecessor which ran from 1927 until 1965.

    You beat me to the comment. Working in Southampton Docks in 1974/75 they were always "boat trains".

    Cheers, Neil

    Sadly I am too young to have experienced her, although I do remember sailing on The Bristol Queen even though I could have been no more than 3

    It looks like a 1960s tower block that's fallen over.
