Every year a 'Maritime Festival' is held in Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands. I've collected some images for this series. This is #2. It shows the Russian frigate 'Shtandart' (homeport St. Petersburg) while moored in a dry-dock in Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands. The 'Shtandart' was invited by the organization committee for a port call to 'decorate' the 2015 event.

The 'Shtandart' is a replica of the, in 1703 built, original 'Shtandart'. The replica made her maiden trip in 2000.
