Another not-previously-featured ship gets an entry. That's two in a row! Not too much to say about the history of the Crystal Serenity. She is the newest ship of the Japanese-owned luxury line Crystal Cruises, built in 2003 by Chantiers de l'Atlantique. The exterior design of Crystal Cruises' ships hasn't been particularly attractive, but the Crystal Serenity is particularly bad in my opinion, with the unattractive angular forward superstructure.
Anyway, the photographs below show the Crystal Serenity departing Helsinki West Harbour on the afternoon of 3 August 2013. Photographed from Sisä-Hattu. click on the images to see them in larger size.

| FOREGROUND CRAP OVERLOAD! Still looks rather good though. |
 |
| Really don't like the design of the ship. Still, the composition is nice. |
 |
| The lichen on the rock really does look rather fancy. |
 |
| The aft part of the superstructure does actually look quite good. |
