Pto, Vallarta.

  

on the Menai Strait.

Numerous sail boats patrol the Pacific Ocean from just off the shore of Santa Barbara, California. This one had a particular weird vibe for me even when I was snapping the shutter. The light and horizon felt a little mystical.

 

I hope you are all doing well out there. It's been a bumpy ride for me lately as life keeps throwing me curve balls. Here's to keeping on swinging hoping to put one into play.

The sea was very choppy then suddenly the wind dropped. Two of the crew on this boat decided to take a nap.

Wer meinen Stream schon länger kennt, hat auch dieses Kunstwerk schon öfters gesehen. Normalerweise stehen die "Mondsegel" mit den Booten unten dran,senkrecht.Gestern herrschte kalter eisiger Wind.

Heute haben wir reichlich Schnee dazu, Fotos werden folgen.

 

Anyone who has known my stream for a longer time has also seen this work of art several times. Normally the "moon sails" with the boats at the bottom are vertical. There was a cold icy wind yesterday .

Today we have plenty of snow, photos will follow.

SAIL-In parade Sail Amsterdam 2015

 

The green tall ship at the front is the Alexander von Humboldt II (too ‘Alex-2’) from Germany.

Behind with the huge flag is the ARC Gloria from Columbia.

 

Since its first edition in 1975, SAIL Amsterdam has grown to become the largest public event in the Netherlands and the largest free nautical event in the world.

Every five years, in excess of 600 ships navigate along the North Sea Canal (the Sail-In or Parade of Sail) before mooring in and around the IJhaven in Amsterdam. The ninth edition of SAIL Amsterdam took place from 19 to 23 August 2015.

Hello all my Flickr friends. It's time for another little break before the summer is all gone. So I'll be off line for a couple of weeks. Thank you all for your kind comments, awards, invites and support. It is always most appreciated. In the meantime, keep on clicking that shutter, and I hope to see you all very soon. Take care, my friends :)

 

"I've been talking drunken gibberish

Falling in and out of bars

Trying to find some explanation here

For the way some people are

How did it ever come so far

 

"Sail away with me honey

I put my heart in your hands

Sail away with me honey now, now, now

Sail away with me

What will be will be

I wanna hold you now"

The video for this is a series of pictures. And I love the song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5GWEGnBk_o

  

This is one of my fav sunset shots from Tenerife. Not sure why, just something about it.

Hier läuft die OKTAN den Hafen von Swinoujscie mit Hilfe eines Lotsenbootes an. Die OKTAN (IMO: 9251755) ist ein Öl-/Chemikalientanker und fährt unter der Flagge der Färöer-Inseln. Die gesamte Länge (LOA) beträgt 99,94 Meter und ihre Breite 16 Meter.

 

Here the OKTAN calls at the port of Swinoujscie with the help of a pilot boat. The OKTAN (IMO: 9251755) is an oil/chemical tanker and sails under the flag of the Faroe Islands. The total length (LOA) is 99.94 meters and the width is 16 meters.

As I am waiting for something completely different(*), this ship comes into the view.

Its pitch-black perfect silhouette against the setting sun in the west and the sea water shining in sunlight, makes a perfect scene!

 

(*) That something is aeroplanes. This is Jounanjima Seaside park very close to the Haneda airport, and I am actually waiting for aeroplanes to show up!

 

他の何か(*)を待っている間、この船は現れた。夕日とそれで輝いている海の背景の上このシルエット理想的なシーンを作ってる!

 

(*)何かを待ってたかというと、飛行機だ。場所は城南島海浜公園で、羽田空港に近いだから、飛行機を撮ろうとしていた。

 

Il tempo che ci è concesso di vivere è troppo breve per essere sprecato come una cosa da poco, i valori in cui crediamo devono trovare il loro giusto cammino. Occorre il coraggio di prendere una decisione e puntare la barca verso il destino.

Una barca si allontana al tramonto verso l'orizzonte, mentre il sole disegna echi di luce fra le onde.

The first dawn is in the San Juan Islands of western Washington. The tanbark ketch is a member of the Sea Witch class of sailboats. Some feel that this class of boat has never been equaled, much less surpassed, for romantic appearance and living space and comfort in a small cruising design.

 

Another shot in the recent Balluminaria event.
