At Station Pier - 5 March 2015

This rather splendid view of Station Pier, Melbourne shows the contrasting styles of the ferry 'Spirit of Tasmania II' which would sail at 1930 for Devonport and the cruise ship Crystal Serenity which had arrived from Sydney and would overnight before departing for Adelaide as she continued her round the world cruise from and to Miami. I get both amusement and pleasure from the symmetries and intersections created by my travels. I had seen Crystal Serenity earlier in my own vacation in Auckland. We had gone our separate ways with Serenity leaving the New Zealand port three days before Oosterdam and been reunited in Victoria. In this shot, Oosterdam is obscured by the two ships shown.
