Sailing on The Solent

The Solent is the stretch of water between mainland England and the Isle of Wight.*
This was taken through the window of the ferry on our way home on Saturday, looking back towards Wight.
Our holiday was wonderful but it's good to be home.

A good composition. I like the position of the large boat with the smaller ones in the background. The water looks very cold.

Superb composition. Eye follows from that first detailed boat to those leading right to back. Lovely light on the water.

I do like sailboats, and the freedom they seem to symbolize. When they are not battling the elements of the sea that is.
