Excellent capture, clean and crisp.

The buildings with the cranes distract somewhat.

Ah, not crop but clone over the buildings, then you are still left with the space.

OMG!
Ottokes: do you know if this ship participated in the Australian bicentenary celebrations in 1988 in Sydney?
I'm quite sure I've been inside it!

Hola !!! it was surely the Fragata Libertad, the ship that replaces this great one....the Sarmiento Frigate saved so many explorers at the argentine antarctic territory more than 100 years ago...and so many kings, queens and tzars visited the Sarmiento...

Thank you !!!

Ah, OK! I knew it looked similar. They brought in most of the world's
tall ships back then. My 4wd club at the time took most of the crews
for a tour of the Blue Mountains in western Sydney and in turn the crews
invited us for dinner in the ships. Great time!
