heres a couple of supersized photos, or of Ark Royal while moored (taken from Seacombe) and a second of the Grand Princess a it passed by Egremonnt Ferry on the way out of Liverpool. Hope these are in the correct section.
You can see the joins if you look, but the Grand Princess one was VERY difficult to stitch due to it moving, and affecting the light. But it looks OK...
The photos here are just smaller 'thumbnails', for the full sizes click the links..

The Captain is back on station again in front of the new Liverpool Life museum. He now looks across the river to Birkenhead where he can see his old enemy the German U-boat 534 at Woodside.

It looks like a WW2 Liberty ship.
The new Amsterdam at Liverpool?

Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
canals to view its modern museum describing
how it once was?

Good to see Captain Walker back where he belongs. Anybody read a book called Walker, R.N. by Terence Robertson? Printed in 1956 it's a right cracking read.

The Empire State was built in 1962. No wonder it looks like a WW2 Liberty Ship.
