a great capture of this old and well restored sailboat; only the pirates are lacking; good framing, lighting and focus;

Love the bright hull. Very nice against the blue of the water. Would like a little more detail on the sails, but that probably has to do with distance. I'd just crop a little off the right, not much, just a little. Cheers, JR.

Wow, what a tall ship that show perspective with the small boats. Good frame and focus with a nice sunny day look. Like it.

Love these ships.
Excellent initial impact.
The lighting is perfect.
I like the little boat because it gives it scale.
Thanks for sharing.

what a cool shot. I love these old tall ships. I toured 'Old Ironsides" when I lived on the east coast and it was total cool. they had tourguides that put on a great show and info. I hope you stuck around and walked around on it. Thaks for sharing.

Comment from genten
I like your picture alot. The different boats and ships, the interesting shore line. It's really composed quite nicely. I really feel, you needed to check your settings, it seems to be a little dark, I love the boat, it the sails and masts kind of loose their detail. It is a great picture Thanks.

A rare sight which you show in minute details with excellent colors. I like the cropping and the inclusion of the two other boats which really give us a sense of scale.
