Bulk Carrier with Two Tugboats (Hamburg, January 2015)

Bulk Carrier with Two Tugboats (Hamburg, January 2015)

This ship entering the port of Hamburg is the Santa Katerina sailing under the flag of Panama. The bulker has a capacity of around 58,100 dwt (deadweight tonnage) and is owned by Meiho Kaiun, a Japanese shipping company. The tug boats are usually used to, among others, help ships maneuvering inside the port.

  1. These are beautiful and strong images. I am intrigued by the almost silhouetting of the ships. A haloing of sorts? Could you share how this was achieved?

  3. Oshi Shikigami Thanks again for your kind remarks. Regarding your question: The day I took the picture (which was on Wednesday the7th of January) the weather in Hamburg was sunny but also a bit hazy. Therefore, while editing the pic I used the sharpening tool quite extensively. Which I guess caused the silhouettes...
