Hi Ken, You helped me out.
ReplyDeleteI was searching for a ship I photographed, underway in fog, back in 2009. It took me a while but I finally confirmed (with the help of one of your photos) that it was the Heather Knutsen. My Picture can be found on Google Earth (if you have panoramio photos selected) out between Duncan's Cove and Ketch Harbour - It's titled "Ghost Ship - Halifax"
Cheers,
