This is the liner QE II entering The River Mersey for the very last time. She is just passing Fort Perch Rock, New Brighton and you can see the smoke from the cannon giving a ceremonial salute to welcome this Grand Lady of The Sea for the last time.

This image was taken on the morning of 3rd October 2008 from the New Brighton Promenade about half a mile from the ship. Nikon D60 F5.6 1/1250 ISO 200 200mm.
