Thanks TVTech. I never use a tripod, just a steady hand and an image-stabililised lens ;-)
Ademkaptan: No, not the last SD14 in service. Take a look in the forum. There's a thread mentioning the dozen or so that are believed to still exist.


Cheers
Phil

I'd certainly like to come back Rick. However, the 'boss' has plenty of other locations pencilled in for future holidays and cruises!

Thanks again, Rick
P.S. am I to assume you might come to visit LP in the future then? ;-)

Thank Jens. I also went to Tenerife on this trip - a cruise to the Canary Islands - but Las Palmas stood out as the prime shipspotting location. This SD14 was the unexpected highlight.

Wish I had seen something like this on my trip to Tenerife in September. What a beautiful ship displayed on four wonderful photos. You're a lucky man, Phil!:-)
