    Excellent POV to capture the sails and all the rigging against the blue sky and snow covered landscape.

    Great comp! That's a lot of ropes!
    Thanks for the suggestion about the wire in my photo today.

    Ditto what Judith said - the rigging looks very complicated. I've been on a few much smaller sail boats and even they seem a little bit of a mystery. I'd be baffled if I had to try to raise these massive sales. Excellent image Terry!

    The rigging looks pretty complicated--glad the sailors know what they are doing! Nice view of the sails and landscape both.

    Oh my, what a wonderful day for sailing & I can't imagine a more beautiful place to for it. Love your composition, Terry. (btw... you link doesn't seem to be working, takes me to 404, page not found. Could be the changes on Smug?)
