Mystery location + rainbow - a photo on Flickriver

Mystery location + rainbow

            Circa 1966. No information known on this one, but those contoured, green mountains look very distinctive. Maybe someone will recognise them?

Niels didn't record anything, so I will make a guess that this is in a seaway, somewhere in the tropics, possibly Central or South America.

The white ship is a reefer - a refrigerated cargo ship - and sports the well-known Swedish company 'Sven Salen' funnel colours. The vessel appears to be stationary, possibly at anchor. Her derricks are raised, in the 'working cargo' position, but doesn't appear to be alongside any kid of quay.

Whilst he served on the Danish cargo ship 'Kirsten Skou', from whence most of his collection seem to originate, he was known to have visited Ceylon (as it was), Colombia, Panama & Puerto Rico, to name but some countries.

Scanned from a slide, from the collection of the late Niels Anker Larsen, former Danish Merchant Navy Radio Officer.
