Photo Album Page One

 

Orion seen berthed in Auckland 

 

This album has a range of images of the ships interiors and decks. However, all except three photographs are the First Class facilities. Sadly, Tourist Class photographs of her interiors are hard to come by. If you, have photographs that are suitable to be added to this page, please email these to me. By doing this, you will give a great deal of pleasure to countless thousands who visit this site. Full credit will be given.

Photographs on ssmaritime and associate pages are by the author or from the author’s private collection. In addition there are some images that have been provided by Shipping Companies and private photographers or collectors. Credit is given to all contributors. However, there are some photographs provided to me without details regarding the photographer/owner concerned. I hereby invite if owners of these images would be so kind to make them-selves known to me (my email address may be found on www.ssmaritime.com only), in order that due credit may be given. I know what it is like, I have seen a multitude of my own photographs on other sites, yet these individuals either refuse to provide credit or remove them when asked, knowing full well that there is no legal comeback when it comes to the net. However, let us show these charlatans up and do the right thing at all times and give credit where credit is due!

This notice covers all pages, although, and I have done my best to ensure that all photographs are duly credited and that this notice is displayed on each page, that is, when a page is updated!
