I took these on the 18th of November last year while transiting through the Suez Canal - please bear in mind the surface to air shots were taken with no planning and with the "benefit" of a few lunchtime beers!
First of all - the perfect "passing"shot -just a little slower than usual
I even managed to get some prop-blur.

You're not even close. Shouldn't one of the boats be inverted for the perfect crossover shot?

Neat catch, Iain! A sight rare as hell, that. Hope you're well and enjoyed the trip, mate.
