    What a beautiful ship! Your composition against that mountain view is excellent! I also like the light captured on the vessel!

  • Thank you Joanne. It was such a pleasure to have seen those ships during the festival days. They looked so majestic as they sailed against the Olympic Mountains as the backdrop.

    Breathtaking! I feel like I am riding along!

  • Thank you for the kind comment, Anna. She was a beautiful ship and the snow on the Olympic Mountains provided quite the backdrop for the event. Too bad we’re going to miss this year’s festival since we already moved to Ontario.
