Thanks Nuri and Giulio.
Yes Nelson's century but more appropriately Captain James Cook's Century (1700s)who started his Navy apprenticeship in Whitby as well as where the ships he sailed in during his voyages of discovery in the Pacific, HMS Bark Endeavour, HMS Resolution and HMS Adventure were built.
History lesson over
BTW: not that the ship is in the picture is supposed to be an exact replica of any of them as far as know

Hi Craig
Nicely done and looks like you are enjoying Whitby!
Just for info - the ship in your photo is actually a very detailed replica of the Endeavour - based on the original plans - at 14 mtrs in length and 4 mtrs wide - it is 40% the original size - and was built in Whitby in 2001

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more
