Barquentine ahead, Sir!

Seen in Auckland harbour from the ferry to Waiheke. It may be a Barquentine as that fits the 3 masts and the square sails on the foremast.
The sea was sparkling on this fine day and I was shooting into the sun!
Best seen large

Such gorgeous color tones here, Maggiemae. Reminds me of a beautiful watercolor. Amazing ship and love the misty look in the background.

@karenann Thanks for your comment! I had my zoom out but I was on a bouncing ferry so didn't know how it would turn out!

[Maggiemae]

@grannysue thanks for your first Observation ( why does auto correct put capitals where they are not wanted!) because this was so in the sun, I've discovered it might be better in B&W!

[Ann Stenson]

Wonderful dreamlike capture!......love the b&w! : )

[Maggiemae]

@annbo It is a bit dreamlike as you say... Like in the moonlight with B&w! When we dream... Nice thought!

[Dana Palermo]
