The S.S. Minnow

Just kidding! I am not certain of the name of this schooner with white sails, but couldn’t help thinking of the old TV program “Gilligan’s Island” for those of you that can remember that far back….
It started with me imagining spending time on this vessel and that led to my thinking about the “3 hour tour” :-)

    Great dark tones and crisp whites in this, Joanne. Love the scene and the vertical format, and the way you kept just a bit more space for the boat to sail into that direction. Beautiful work. Wish I were there!

  • Joanne Bradley replied

    So glad you noticed that Jan! Thanks! I hesitated because I knew that space was needed in front of the sailboat and with a vertical shot it doesn’t allow for much, but it was going slow….
