A port side view, taken from ahead of the beam, of the Orient Line cruise ship Orion (1935) at anchor in a Norwegian fjord. Her port anchor is deployed, an accommodation ladder is rigged to her main deck aft with one of the ship's boats alongside it. Lifeboat 16 has been launched and lifeboat number 2 has been swung out and is suspended at boat deck level. The Blue Peter flag is flying at the port yardarm and the norwegian flag is at the starboard yardarm on the foremast. The mountains in the background are partially obscured by low cloud.
