I would be grateful if the gentlemen who sent the information could resend it. The Maritime Station at Cuxhaven is an ideal site to photograph vessels heading for Hamburg, the Elbe Ports or the Kiel Canal. Should a vessel be berthed at the west end of the pier it is possible not to see outgoing vessels until it is almost too late to photograph them.
Ships pass very close to the pier.
The sun should not present too much of a problem. On the River Schelde there are a couple of good vantage points. The first is at Walsoorden , north east of Terneuzen and just off the N60, for all shipping traffic heading for Antwerp. The second site is Terneuzen where it is possible to photograph vessels using the Ghent Canal as well as those heading for Antwerp. This is a north-facing site where the sun presents no problems.
