Thanks Bob, I guess many slipped through the net in those days of the Western Master exposure meter, even with 35mm you were restricted to 36 on a film so always had to carry a spare one.

Classic shot Ken, before my shipspotting days but I had the same problem being selective. Many a local vessel I wished I had photographed :-(

Thanks for your comment Derek, I believe it has been said by others that more were not taken at the time but with only 12 on a roll we had to be selective, how times have changed now we have the cards.
Kind Regards
Ken
