In this page you are posting a photo of my wife as we awaited rescue in the show lounge of the Empress of the North on May 14, 2007. You indicated that you may click upon the photo for a more detailed description of the photo however the next page is marked private is there no way for me to download this photo as I have put together a collage. If this is your personal photo then I can understand you not desiring to share it. If you in fact took the photo then obviously you were sitting just behind us. The top right photo is the one that I desire.

Thank you,

Roger,
I apologize for the confusion. The photos were not taken by me, I was just reporting the story. They were taken by a passenger of the ship and uploaded to a public photo sharing website. At the time they were labeled "public" but I guess the photographer changed their mind. If you have a yahoo account then you can go to the following page, click "send flickrmail" and ask the photographer for a copy:

I hope this helps,
John
