Endeavour at dusk

In my main album I have posted a photo of the HMB Endeavour taken this afternoon and I thought that as my theme this month is evening and night I would post a late afternoon photo of the Endeavour when it was anchored in Nelson Bay for the night after sailing here from Newcastle.

As an afterthought I am adding a link to the history of the Endeavour if you are interested.

@derekvickers Thanks Derek, the sunset got even better as the evening went on.

[Babs]

@jackie8 Thanks so much for the fav Jackie. Hope the hip is better now.

[Babs]

@tomtom Thanks Andrew, it really is a beautiful ship and I would love to have seen it with its sails up.

[Babs]

@pcoulson @pcoulson Thanks so much Peter. The sunset was beautiful and that low light time of the day is my favourite time.

[Babs]

@happypat thanks so much for the fav Pat. It was a beautiful evening and I got lots of shots.

[Babs]

@scarybird I agree Steve, but I did want to get a daytime shot of the ship as it sailed into the bay.

[Babs]

@ethelperry Thank you so much for the fav Ethel and thank you Michael too.

[Babs]

@888rachel Thanks for the fav Rachel. I am going to be a bit busy next week, so may not be able to catch up too often. Daughter and grandchildren arrive tomorrow.

[Babs]

@golftragic I wouldn't have liked to travel in those days either. I have been on the ship and I would have been fine if I'd have been 3 ft tall and I was the only passenger. Not enough room to swing a cat I can tell you.

[Jane Morley]

Beautiful. Another fav.

[Kat]

Beautiful lighting. :)

[Laur]

Soooo beautiful and stately.

[Kathie]

Love the light on the bow...not sure if I've named the right end of the ship.

[Gena Pegg]

Lovely light on this beautiful tall ship.
