Blue Moon, blowing in the wind.

A little yacht, making its way down river: I know not from whence it did come nor where it did hope to go, it was zig-zagging against a firm wind and the turning tide (rising) as it headed past. Nothing large on the river in the immediate vicinity but a number of ships coming in on the tide. Good luck to them.

 

It's possible that zig zagging is the best way to sail into a wind and against the tide: I remember years back being told to zig zag when walking up steep hills rather than try to go straight up, which, for me, did actually help !

 

The camera was on its Defocus Background setting.
