About Holland America Line Ships

This group is to collect photos of any of the Holland America Line ships, either current, planned or historic. All photos should still be in HAL livery. They can be "On Board" "At Sea" or "In Port".

Photos should include part of the ship, or a very nautical/maritime view from or of a HAL ship. Preference for photos not to have people or groups of people unless showing a ship related feature.

There is NO LIMIT on the number of photos you can post to this group. We want to see every 'nook and cranny' of all the HAL ships.

I'm presently searching Flickr for each of the Holland America ships. This will take some time to complete. Feel free to invite anyone with relevant photos you might find in your Flickr travels. Have marked the ships I've done so far.
