Monochrome. A Ship with A Mission


The floating bookstore (MV Doulos ) was here for the whole month of March 2009.


I bought some books and a brief tour ..


Taken on a starless night before she sailed away.


See what's below the wall of the ship?

Lovely series. There's something so romantic about travel by ship that you just don't get with an airplane.

A lovely ship from the time the ships looked like ships - not horizontal hotels.

A really pleasing sequence, Regina.

There's something really special and mysterious about these photos - a mystery ship - never quite fully revealed - a starless night and a string of people! Wonderfully told story.

Lovely shots.
I like the tones in the first 3 and the slightly dark/spooky atmosphere in the last one!
Well done!

Seeing this ship, evokes the thought, "Watch out for pirates."

The black and white adds such charm to the shots.

Cool! I've "boarded" this ship in Manila back in year 2000 and bought a Dickens... I love the minimalist topmost photo. Very creative!
