Hi all The Pasha Bulker is a 76,000 tonne bulk carrier that became grounded during a severe storm about 3 weeks ago. Since then it has become a tourist attraction as it sits on Nobby's Beach, Newcastle waiting to be refloated (which is being attempted as I write).
Anyway, on the spur of the moment I decided I'd like some photos. Unfortunately, a public exclusion area meant that the only possible view of the ship was from the south putting the side being photographed into shadow. Here's a couple - clicking on the "Vieew Album" link will produce a few more. http://tinyurl.com/2uf5mx http://picasaweb.google.com/supera1000/PashaBulker/photo?authkey=ncDWM5W7Hgg#5081078681021740178 http://tinyurl.com/3yz3wh http://picasaweb.google.com/supera1000/PashaBulker/photo?authkey=ncDWM5W7Hgg#5081078681021740226 http://tinyurl.com/38rroh http://picasaweb.google.com/supera1000/PashaBulker/photo?authkey=ncDWM5W7Hgg#5081078887180170498 Cheers Brian ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://members.westnet.com.au/brianwal/SL/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Free pop3 email with a spam filter. http://www.bluebottle.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
