With only one sleep to go until the Rainbow Warrior gets here, I was planning to tell you about her adventures over the past year, when she's been on a mission to get the planet to quit coal - trailing the odd campaign victory in her wake But then I noticed Captain Mike Finken has done it for me, on the Making Waves blog. Here's a snippet:

Photographer Pierre Gleizes managed to get back to the Rainbow Warrior after his arrest and put together this set of pictures capturing the high tension moment of the activists arrests after painting a cargo ship carrying coal to the Ashkelon power plant in Israel. Great to have the master back on board and still going strong after over 25 years of making superb images for Greenpeace.

Israeli police boarded the Rainbow Warrior today to arrest captain Daniel Rizzotti after the peaceful action of activists from the ship who painted "Quit Coal" on the hull of a ship unloading coal at the Ashkelon power plant.
