Tall Ship HMS Bounty by Weezilou

Tall Ship HMS Bounty


I'm having a love affair this summer with the gorgeous Tall Ships that have come to Lunenburg! We attended another party at "Billy's Boat Shed" in Indian Point this evening and I got a lot of nice "people pictures", but I was still on the hunt for something with a little more sizzle before the sun went down. We were told this square-rigged ship, built in Lunenburg 52 years ago, was back in port so we stopped by to see it as the sun sank below the horizon. This was the best shot I could get from the parking lot, but I was delighted when I put it up on the computer. The gates open for the boat tour tomorrow morning and we'll be there bright and early.

@abbydooby Thanks Abigail! The time stamp shows it was going on 9PM...I couldn't believe how gorgeous the sky was at that late hour!

@weezilou your welcome! We had a really pretty sky - and sun - tonight too :)

this looks a lot like a silk screen picture i used to have.

@chard I'll take that as a compliment, and I think it's an image that would always be a pleasure to see... Also, knowing those 2nd and 3rd albums get buried, here's one I left especially for you http://365project.org/Weezilou/album-excess/2012-07-22

A beautiful composition with lovely colours.

indeed the same colors as in 'my' sky, how strange! Or maybe not, it's just one great big sky that we're all living under, isn't it? :-) Beautiful ship, very 'piraty'.

Fabulous silhouette of those lines and all against a beautiful horizon. Great shot!
