hello Friends,

it was very hot Friday morning when i took this shot.. usually when they were Cruise Ships calling to the Port i won't even bother seeing one from close up view.. either i took shot from the office window or top floor of the office building.. this time i mean last friday i went inside.. it was difficult to take shot where most of the time i only see bright lights :)

about Dawn Princess

For the the ship that sailed as "Dawn Princess" 1988—1993, see RMS Sylvania.

Dawn Princess is a Sun class US-based cruise ship built in 1997 in Italy operated by Princess Cruises. The ship features eight restaurants, four swimming pools, five Jacuzzis, seven lounges and bars, and two children centres. Some restaurants offer “anytime dining” where passengers can dine with whom they want, when they want. She is the sister ship to Sun Princess, P&O's Oceana (former Ocean Princess)]] and Sea Princess.

Dawn Princess divided her time between Alaska and the Caribbean in 2006 and is splitting itineraries between Alaska and Mexican Riviera in 2007.

Dawn Princess was targeted to replace the Pacific Princess, sailing Australian waters between October 2006 and March 2007, to become the largest ship ever to be based in Australia, but these plans were eventually replaced by the Sun Princess as well as being served by the Pacific Dawn (previously christened Regal Princess). The Dawn Princess will be back in Australia starting September 24, 2008, beginning its run with a 28-day itinerary circumnavigating Australia, after a month serving Hawaii, Tahiti, and the South Pacific[2]. From this point on, Dawn Princess will remain in Australia permanently sailing from Sydney, Melbourne and Perth alongside Sun Princess.

Recently, Princess Cruises has announced that Dawn Princess will be fitted with the Movies Under the Stars feature in June 2009. - Source: Wikipedia

Hello Terry,

The light seems to have been perfect for this shot as the colours are so clear.

The reflected water on the prow is a very attractive detail.

Bev :-)

Hi Terry, so this is Dawns new toy????
Nice perspective and well saturated colour, I like the heavy shadow under the bow, a good contrast to the rest of the ship.
What a stunning sky, well seen.
