Strange travellers

Many and varied are the sightings of ships that pass these shores. They traverse the sea route round the Cape of Good Hope in fair weather and foul, with seldom a time when a ship isn't visible along the horizon between Cape Town and Cape Point, and frequently up to six can be seen at varying distances. Foul weather is always exciting, as the bow dips deep into a trough and then lifts in a deluge of white water cleaning off the decks in more ways than one.
Sometimes I am able to get a fairly good photo through the tiny gap, and here is a small selection for your viewing pleasure.
