I noticed it earlier, gorgeous, reminds me of my holidays :lol:
Nice schooner shot, highlander! Last year, we enjoyed a local cruise on one very similar to that. Would love to do it again! :)

Nice shot highlander, lot closer than i can get
Lovely pic Highlander - shame that ugly thing passed by in the background!
I have been informed there is a large crusie ship (spelling) on the Firth. Anyone have photos of it?
Would it be the post under this one?
Great photos Highlander & Tuggs.
I've merged Big G's thread here.

It wasn't the schooner that big g was on about, i looked on the ais site and there was a cruise ship called century something? already passed through the firth heading west.

I've finally managed to work out how Flickr works!
Here's a photo of the tall ship Atlantis that I took down at Thurso harbour in the evening.
The large cruise ship is in the background.

I did get some shots earlier similar to those already in the thread.
Well done, new driver! :) The schooner looks great silhouetted against the lovely evening sky, and the rocks in the foreground add further interest to the photo. :cool:
Well done on getting them both in the picture; doesn't the schooner look impressive......

Great photos from you all, took a couple myself, but had too short a focal length lens on the camera.
Particularly like your photo new driver, good timing.
