   Starting a new thread as requested - here are some shots from a visit to Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard last Saturday.

HMS Victory - a tricky pano made from 4 shots at 18mm

Detail of rigging

Admiral's Cabin

Lower Deck

Mary Rose - Henry VIII's favourite ship. 

Sank in 1545, raised in 1979, now being conserved in a massive chamber full of polyethylene glycol spray.

Difficult to shoot through murky glass windows, in dim light - but by bracing the camera (and thanks to SSS) I managed to get some handheld shots that worked.

0.6s ISO400

1.0s ISO100

	Very informative site here about the Mary Rose. Edited by zk-cessnaguy - 03 September 2008 at 13:07
	There is nothing, absolutely nothing, half so much worth doing, as simply messing about in boats

	From Last night at Dana Point Harbor. It was pretty dark so I used my Sigm EF-530 DG Super to hit the boats using the test button. Then some PP....
	Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube.

	This is technically not a KM shot, yet it is in a way :-) It's a view taken from a helicopter of my sailboat, "Respite" underway in the 250 statute mile race from Port Huron to Mackinac Island (the length of Lake Huron) this past summer. It was quite a wild ride! I acquired a print of the shot on the island, and copied it while underway as my wife and I were cruising later. I'm the guy in the blue shirt in the middle of the cockpit. Here it is: And here was my first attempt to copy-shoot the print while underway, with the 7D and 24-105 lens. Hmmm... must have inadvertently turned the anti-shake off. Here is a link to the story of our wild ride on my "Respite" website for those interested... click on the link at top of the homepage for a "Mac" story: http://web.mac.com/davidbannister/Respite_Site/Respite.html Edited by DavidB - 31 October 2008 at 16:47
