Hi Lars,

That's definately the best angle to capture the King.
Nice photo Lars. :-D

Regards
Kevin :-D

person

--- she isn't looking that 'boxy' from this angle....

but she is also desperately in need of paint - i think her stern ramp doors are in this maintenance-lacking blue and white checkerboard-style since december 2007...she wasn't in a perfect state as i travelled with her in 2005, but it was a good deal worse in 2006 and 2008

what'S wrong with you, dfds seaways? - you've done so much better...

person

Thanks for your reply you 2.
I thought it was indeed a good angle, but the hits are not very high haha :-D
She need indeed a paintjob, the Princess is in better paint.

AHA, you're from Basel! How were the dutch supporters? One big orange party!
Only the match self was very, very, very bad :-(

Kind regards from the Netherlands

person

Both of the ijmuiden - newcastle ships are quite boring to look at, so perhaps thats the reason for the low hit - counter..

basel with 165000 inhabitants was indeed full of dutch supporters, (around 150000 + 30000 russians) and was rather orange - overcrowded...
