Pic of the week 25.4.05

[Geoff]

Well, this week the photo I liked most was one of Flipfrogs. I chose this image as it's taken from a somewhat different perspective. The lines that draw into this massive cruiser are impressive and I think the angles that Dee (flipfrog) have utilised are great. Congratulations Flipfrog on another fine photo for the Picture of the Week competition. Here is the photo:

Great choice Geoff and congrats to flipfrog.

Just as aside, are you not a little early as it is only Monday night

hmm...maybe a tad early but it was either now or tomorrow evening at about 9pm!? I thought now was better.

thanks again Geoff for choosing one of my images ~blush~

i took a bunch of images similiar to this one with different DOF and this one was the better of the bunch...

this was the Royal Caribbean "Vision of the Seas" which i called home for 7 days as we cruised the west coast of Mexico during spring break...
this ship had everything: casino, rock climbing wall, theatres, spas, bars lounges, pools, and accomodated around 3000 guests...midnight chocolate buffets, pool-side BBQ's, fine dining, and all you can eat dinner buffets were all part of this 7 day luxury cruise.....

we stayed in 3 ports: Mazatlan, Cabo San Lucas, and Peurto Vallarta during the vacation..

This is a breathtaking shot Dee. SO perfectly composed. I find your mostly but not quite fully desaturated choice an interesting one, or is it just a little boost of blue? Care to elaborate on why you decided to do that (don't get me wrong I think it works). Maybe it gives it that summery feel? Maybe you just liked it more?

[Oneputt]

Very good choice, I love the compostition

[Manta]

I missed your original post of this one Dee but I'm very pleased Geoff has seen fit to bring it to our attention once again. A very deserving POTW. Congratulations.

Good stuff Dee,

2 POTW's for you you must be stoked.

Great shot, you deserve it.

Mic.

[Mal]

Plain sailing for you Dee , very nice.

[KerryPierce]

Excellent shot and fine choice for POTW! Congrats Dee!

[Neeper]

Perfect choice. I totally agree with it as well. I think Dee will have many POTW on here. Good going Dee.

[MHD]

I for one vote we ban him from the forums so he can stop hogging the spotlight
(Inserting to make the point it is sarcasting and in good fun and to avoid being told off and inserting aimed at the admins for good humor and adding because I cant see where else I am going to use it)

[darb]

great shot, the sheer logistics and physics involved with those ships always astounds me ... i find this picture very interesting.

[stubbsy]

Congratulations Dee. Missed this first time around. This is a really well composed shot and I'd not have picked it as one of yours given the UNDER saturated look.

And you're our first two time winner (we can't count last week, can we )

[below-0]

excellent shot, especially like the perspective going up to the huge starboard from the ropes. Blue Saturation has worked well also.
