| An exceedingly successfull "night-time" photograph is you ask me. Though in actual fact the time was 15:40... which gives you an impression of how early it gets dark here in the North. |
MV Ocean Life. hi Kalle. I live in Goa. if you are interested, the local press is quite amusing about this decrepit ferry boat. google Navhind Times, oheraldo and Times of India/city/goa. My personal take on the matter will appear soon in our blog
ReplyDeleteThank you for the info Martin, I found the Navhind Times articles on the ship especially interesting. The ship is of special interest to me as she's the sister ship of the Finnish cruise ship Kristina Katarina.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to reading your views on the incident. :)
