Star Stratos

The acquisition of new material has finally begun! The weather isn't exactly favourable for photography (the calendar says 'May 17th' today but you could have fooled me, as it looks and feels more like November) and hasn't been for a while.
I was out at Seaview today and took this photo of the refrigerated cargo ship 'Star Stratos' as she approached Portsmouth. I used my 400mm lens for the shot, due to the distance, as the only other lenses I possess are a 70-200mm and an 18-135mm.

Ship facts - Built in 2007; IMO number: 9350991; gross tonnage: 14030; flag: Singapore
