I agree with Bob, great shot

Not been close to any of these yet myself, and doubt I will this year.

best regards
Derek

Thanks, I was on the end of a very long jetty in winds gusting to 40 knots.. didn't feel like August Bank Holiday! Well spotted on the Marco Polo :-)

Great photo John. I'm still yet to get a decent photo of any of these :-( . I take it that you were out amongst the shipping that day.
