A slightly distant port quarter view of the Royal Navy type 12 frigate Leander (1961) at anchor in the Firth of Forth, clearly showing her VDS well in the transom. She is the British contribution to STANAVFORLANT (the NATO Standing Naval Force Atlantic) and a fleet tender is alongside. In the distance is the Dutch Navy frigate Isaac Sweers (1967) which is the flagship of the Squadron. The photographer is on board an unidentified Royal Navy Ton class minesweeper. A slightly unsharp image.
