Description

The mast on my friend's boat is 42' high. More ropes than I would know what to do with. There are 14 sails for the boat, though of course not all are used at the same time, nor are they even on the boat. It depends on where he's going which sails he uses.

That rigging is nicely intense and it looks as if it has a hint of St. Elmo's Fire on it, which of course makes me wonder if there are any great white whales in the area being hunted by good ol' Capt'n Ahab. Okay, maybe I'm going a bit far with that, but oh well! Blame Arizona Brand "Sweet Tea" for that one. I really like this shot though, your POV gives such a cool sense of scale and presence and the colors are awesome. Nicely rich! I like this a lot! It's a zoomer too. Oh, did I just say awesome? Oh well...I guess I have an awesome quota to fill. But at any rate, I love this shot.

Up, up, and away, in this cool POV of the mast climbing to the heavens, Marilyn! These are the kind of shots that give me a crick in the neck and back, and the impression of falling over backwards.

Yeah ... if I were going very far I'd need a few classes! I'm good at the helm, but useless with the sheets.

It has been said that a boat is a hole in the ocean you throw money into. This mast looks appropriately expensive. Is that a satellite dish I see on the top? Very well captured. Great color and exposure.
