That scenery reminds my of the immortal words by late president Mac Mahon. Quoted from Wikipedia :

During the night of 23–24 June 1875 the Garonne region suffered heavy flooding. While visiting the inundated cities and villages he declared "que d'eau… que d'eau !… " (nothing but water…only water!…).[11] The prefect of the department responded to him: "Et encore, Monsieur le Président, vous n'en voyez que le dessus!" (Then again, Mr. President, you are only seeing what's above the surface!").

On the first shot, I wonder how the boats in the background know their way...

Tongue in cheek i suspect ;)

These ships must be equipped with state of the art navigation.

Thank you Airy

Great moment
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

They are, but there are still physical navigation markers, one which is visible in the center of picture #1 (cone on pole).  ;)
