The Queen Mary II was in Wellington a couples of weeks back, largest ship 
ever in the harbour. It usually goes to Christchurch but was obvioulsy 
unable to at the moment.

Not a very special picture, but gives an idea of the size - that round thing 
is the Westpac Stadium (aka the cake tin) which seats 36,000 people.......

Shot with 35mm (what I had with me), but might put a cropped image up this 
evening
