Lens Artists Photo Challenge #408 – Over the Top

Posted in PhotographyTagged , , , ,

Egidio asks us to show things we see as Over the Top. He defines Over the Top as “something too extreme, too dramatic, or more than what is expected and needed.” I’m featuring a few Over the Top ships I’ve seen during my travels.

Mega Yacht in Barbados

Enormous container ship traveling through the Panama Canal.

Cruise Ship docked side by side in St. Kitts.

Would you go down this over the top water slide on top of a cruise ship?

I enjoyed seeing all of your wonderful Celebrations in response to Patti’s challenge last week. Thank you to everyone who joined the challenge.

  3. You found some great examples Beth! You couldn’t pay me enough money to go down that side however LOL. Interestingly your cruise images are a good reminder of why I’m not one to want to experience them first-hand!

    1. Thanks Tina! I’m with you on the slide- no way! We resisted cruising for many years. Then we discovered Viking Ocean with only 920 guests. We love the smaller ship. Whenever we docked next to a huge ship ours looked tiny.

  12. Amazing, Beth.

    Those gigantic cruise ships are unreal.

    (All I can think of is the Titanic though. Imagine trying to evacuated one of those ships in an emergency).

  15. Beth, Lynn and I were on our first multi-day river cruise on a ship with 189 passengers, 53 crew. I much enjoyed the time making new friends. That’s not often an experience on the large ocean cruisers. I’m sure there will be more small-ship cruises in my future.

    1. John, I look forward to hearing more about your river cruise. We really enjoyed our cruises on the smaller ships. We always had fun meeting new people. The only river cruise we did was the Viking Mississippi River. We loved it.

  17. Good selection, Beth. The two docked cruise ships were particularly good. The yacht reminds me of a boat our sone worked on for a while. It included both a helicopter and a submarine for the passengers. He flew the helicopter when the boat was in Antartica.
