[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This one was taken some time ago with my compact digital camera somewhere on the Ijsselmeer.
I was on board of an old traditional sailing ship that was around 100 years old. I was lying on my back on the deck, relaxing and enjoying the silence [I was there with one of my classes and I can tell you, moments of silence are rare enough on classtrips ;-)].
There was no wind, we drifted for several hours before using the ships engine to get to the next harbour for the night. By then I had a pretty good sunburn...
Coming back to this shot: as I said above I was lying flat on my back when taking this. The sun was behind the main sail. I was impressed by the tall mast and tried to capture this impression in this shot.
PP: cloned out the top of another mast on the left; added borders and sharpened once.
Have a nice week. Regards, Britta

Hallo Britta,
tolle Perspektive. Leider werd ich leicht seekrank und irgendwie beginnt der Mast auf dem Bild zu schauckeln, wenn ich länger draufschaue. Der Rahmen ist klasse. Er unterstützt die vielen Bereiche von Licht und Schatten mit der durch Segel scheinenenden Sonne. DI ebrechenden Strahlen unten links dürften sogar etwas weiter in sBild gehen - sind die 'echt'?
Gruss aus dem grauen Süden,
Thomas

hi Britta
