Gone to See Europe. Semester at Sea Spring 2013 Enrichment Voyage on the MV Explorer. Day 51: Southampton, England.

Early in the morning I saw a large cruise ship all lit up from the window in my cabin. The ship passed us relatively quickly. Once we arrived in Southampton we saw that the large ship that passed us was the Queen Elizabeth.

Love the composition. The photo is so much more poignant with the person in the frame.
She is a beauty and huge up close. I also love your composition, David.
QE is BIG, made the MV Explorer that I was on when I took this image seem like a small ship.
