Sunday (17-August-2014) — Poland

Gone to See Europe 2014. Day 78: Semester at Sea, Summer 2014 Semester Voyage. Gdansk, Poland.

To save energy, there were several days the MV Explorer remained in-port for Classroom Days. We were not allowed off the ship, even if we didn’t have any classes. John Rosenburg the Piano Man kept us entertained during the day. Image taken with a Leica X2 camera (ISO 800, 24 mm, f/2.8, 1/60 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro, Define, and Photoshop CC.
