Suez Canal Scene.
Although I sailed through the Suez Canal many times during my time at sea, the first time in 1963 was the most memorable and this image was taken on that occasion as the SS Mahseer sailed South bound towards the Red Sea. I have no idea what part of the canal is shown in the photograph (possibly Port Said) as I kept no records. I was just full of wonder at the beauty and greenness of Egypt along the Northern banks of the canal.
