The SS Earnslaw on Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown, New Zealand. The paraglider got a bit caught up in the smoke !! A closer view of Earnslaw and a short description of her can be viewed at my Lady Of The Lake

Very nice shot, Eve. I think you have friends in High places. Even got the smoke to co-operate in the composition.

Very nice shot. I saw the title and thought "a pile" (think steaming) no she wouldn't do that. Boy am I relieved.

Well, you won't see this very often...a real live steamer. Did you get to ride on it? Love that billowing smoke. The glider may look like he's in the smoke but he is well off the outside of it from what I can see. Very interesting and eye catching shot.

Very nice picture.
In former days I smoke like a chimney, I nevertheless get down a lot of smoke, uche, uche, uche.

Nice shot of some gorgeous water scenery! This looks like a place I would really like to visit. The steam boat provides some extra interesting subject.

If you admire nature for its creations why don't you visit the gallery of its reporter...
