being on a boat like that must be like being on an island.
except you can pull up anchor and move around.
it's a beautiful picture.

Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, Spain
To live on a cloud... sometimes I would like to.
Beautiful compostition, nice colors .
And the line created by the mast and its reflections creates a good effect of gravitation around this axis :)

Are you longing for new horizons, Lorraine? Or.......simply dreaming? I think....the reflection is your dream, is it not? I appreciate ALL your visits, dear Lady, here and on Facebook,too. Thank you SO VERY SPECIALLY!

Nice, Lorraine, the line of the mast and its reflection is perfect.
17 Jul 2009 2:55pm
@MontereyJohn: you notice John, I like how the fairly straight line reflection goes all squigly lol
Claudia from Illinois, United States
I love the line that runs from the top of the frame, through the boat and all the way down into the water with the boat anchored in the middle. Such a great composition. Wish I were there right now. :)

@Claudia: Thanks so much Claudia isn't it fun how it squiggles at the end lol ;)

Au début, j'ai failli être frustré de voir le mat coupé, puis j'ai vu le reflet, et j'ai compris. J'aime beaucoup le résultat, Lorraine
