The dramatic sky makes it look like the ship is being brought in to safety from a violent storm. To me, the water between the ship and the bottom edge add a sense of loneliness. Anyhow, I really like the picture.
Lovely harbour shot. This brings to my mind the scene that we have seen very often of the tanker 'Ohio' arriving in Malta during WWII when Malta was on the brink of surrendering to Axis forces because of the lack food, fuel and ammunition to keep on fighting. It was part of the largest convoy which was sent to Malta to help it continue the struggle. The convoy was named Operation Pedestal if you care to read about it.
@sangwann thank you Dione, I’ll look up Op Pedestal, @maggiemae Maggie, the faraway ship is The Commodore Clipper waiting to come in. @wakelys@bkbinthecity Thank you everybody for your comments and thoughts. Really appreciated.
