STS Young Endeavour photographed the other day near Shoalwater Bay, Central Queensland. I can't remember if it was the kit lens or the 50mm 1.4F.

And along with my ship, HMAS Manoora.

Steve,

Both are great shots, and I love the contrast between the old and the new.

A beautiful ship... and a couple of great shots...
I imagine it would have looked even better with the mainsails unfurled... Great comparison of old & new...

Are those islands in the background on the first one?

Hey Steve, top shots mate as usual, i have seen this oldgirl around a lot and is fantastic with all her sails up and even with your ship behind looks good but i would thought you would have some pics of the Yanky ship that sailed into Sydney today that was on the news tonite. i guess they are coming?
Cheers
John
