Portrait of a Queen
There are a couple of things I'd like to point out in this shot. First there is the artist of course painting a picture of the ship. What you don't see is about 50 people jostling for position to take pictures of the ship, and pictures of each other in front of the ship. We are on the Observation deck of the Overseas Passenger Terminal, so the guys down there on the dock are about 4 floors below us. The rooms to the left are staterooms on the ship. Many of these had people standing in them waving Australian flags when the ship first arrived. You can still see one posted on one of the rooms. This shot was taken at 18mm. I don't have anything wider (yet), and from this distance and angle, this was all I could fit in. I had some lens distortion that had to be corrected, then cropped, but otherwise this is just about full view. |
