Southern Ocean storm
Copied from an old slide (and now brought forward in my photo stream). Heading south on the Nella Dan, a few days out from Australia we encountered a major storm system in the Southern Ocean. This was taken from the deck above the bridge. It was a matter of getting the shot, then diving behind the barrier as the spray passed overhead.
At the worst of the storm, we finished up hove-to, pointing due west into the hurricane force winds for several days.
