Description Sailing like this is the best way to get somewhere... It's so wonderful...!

This is from last week, when we were sailing in the archipelago. Our boat is a beautiful Vindö 40.

the angle on this one seems like your hanging off teh side of the boat. looks like a tough shot, but very well executed.

hey girl! this one's great. that wave in the right cornrr is simply great it gives that dynamic of sailing to the whole scene, one can really feel the wind and power of the sealife. i love the frame, because one can see the beauty of the ship too. it's made of wood so it gives that ancient beauty feeling.
i must say you have a beautifull ship. bah, now i am jealous

'What a ship is, what the Black Pearl really is... is freedom!' Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean)

That's what it's all about. Leave the house and bills and people and everthing behind and leave! Go wherever I want to. And sailing feel the wind push the boat forward. No sound from an diesel-eating motor... Still extremly powerful. There's nothing better in the world! The archipelago, too, it's so beautiful. :]

''No sound from an diesel-eating motor... Still extremly powerful''

this was the best description of that special something that one can feel when finding himself on a sailng boat. it makes my blood boil and my heart beat a little bit faster, when i think about the wind that carries you anywhere you want. you feel that power of the nature but also feel the power of the human mind which embodied that great thing called ship.
that's simply great...

This certainly is the picture that stood out most in my DevWatch's. Its fantastically pleasing to look at, puzzling and strangely overwhelming. I don't think you could have timed the shot any better. Nice work, the use soft and dark colours really makes this shot what it is, the gentle contrast between ship and sea, then ship and sail. Brilliant work

It is VERY beautiful! The only thing that kinda irks me about the photograph is the wet spot on the deck... not that you could do ANYTHING about that, but it's a little... distracting because it looks blurry, or whatever, but I realise it's the reflection. But I do do do DO Love it!!! :Heart: :Heart:

tuberosum In reply to SardonicViolet [2005-10-15 09:50:05 +0000 UTC]

It's hard to get the waves NOT to splash all over the deck, but I've been thinking about that too.

Thank you

RecensAetas [2005-10-14 18:07:52 +0000 UTC]

The angle is fantastic! I like how you can see almost all the way up to the prow (or so it appears to me [Note - I'm very non nautical *hangs head*]), and everything on deck is in focus. Very exciting photo! Excellent work!

I really had to work hard for that angle :]

Aah, prow! Yes, I wanted it to be visible ^^

Ooh. ^^
It's far from calm. ;} I was hanging outside the boat to get the angle I wanted and the waves were so close to my precious camera... But we survived, the both of us ^^
