2024 Monochrome Madness #10: People

Throwback to 1974/5

Aboard the Queen Mary

I have been reminiscing about the good old days as I go thru processing my dad’s old slides into a digital format. These are from 1974 and 1975 when we toured the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California.

Here I am looking out over the ships railing into the parking lot waiting for everyone to climb aboard.

Other people are milling about conversing with one another as they wait for the tour to proceed.

Let’s take a gander over yonder at the Pacific Ocean . Isn’t it amazing how vast and beautiful the views are watching the ripples in the ocean waters.

Hey look, there’s a father and son looking out over towards Long Beach.

What do you know? Seems somebody took a photo of my mom and dad.

Are you ready? The tour is over and people are waiting for us to disembark.

Thank you for joining us on our tour of the Queen Mary.

2024 Sunday Stills: Pastels in California’s Beautiful Outdoors

California has some beautiful coastline. These were taken way back in 1974 in Long Beach, California.

This first one was taken looking over the Pacific Ocean and Pier J, Port of Long Beach. The view was taken from aboard the Queen Mary.

The next two photos are of the Shoreline of the Long Beach Harbor with skylines.

Just look at the pastels in the skyline and shoreline. It’s an amazing view looking out over the Pacific Ocean from the Queen Mary.
