Another great scene of these racing sail boats. The deep blue water so nicely contrasts with the white sails. The white sails are not washed out or overly bright. They have a nice rather softness to them. Not always easy to achieve on a sunny day. Very well done my friend ~ Steve

Well, it isn't too difficult to figure out who is behind this entry. LOL You have indeed pictured these sailboats well, and I also think it is a fine entry into this contest. Indeed lovely blue hues in this photo as well both in the sky and the sea.

Your photo is also pin sharp and it is possible to see clear and well defined details in all the boats. The exposure is just perfect.

The cropping you have done works really well and all the boats are given room to sail into. Indeed a beautiful and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

The sails steal the scene of this very sharp breezy image. Love the color, shadow, and highlights. Perfectly framed. Bravo:)

A lovely seascape shot presented here! Your full composition certainly does justice to those beautiful yachts. I can feel the wind and here it bustling through the sails! Perhaps the scene could be a tad brighter?

A gorgeous series and I think this is the best of the lot. Great cropping and exquisite detail. The colors are beautiful and you don't get to see boats like this very often. The four are nicely placed in the frame and the background is outstanding.

Comment from liseworks
sailboats are the most beautiful kind of boats to see across the water, and these ones with the pure white sails against the blue water and sky is most spectacular, love the background with the hazy land and beautiful summer day clouds
