[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A regatta is a term used to describe either a boat race, or series of boat races. Although the term typically describes racing events of unpowered water craft, some powerboat race series are also called regattas. Most commonly, a regatta is either a series of rowing, sailing, gondola races or yacht racing. A regatta often includes social and promotional activities which surround the racing event, and except in the case of boat type (or "class") championships, is usually named for the town or venue where the event takes place.

Wow, great action shot! This captures the hard work and effort that goes into sailboat racing by the man straining against the crank handle and the lack of a cocktail in the bikini-clad girl's hand! The orientation of the deck shows the sort of movement through the water that one is subjected to during this activity. A lot to look at here!

Thanks,

Olá Ralf,
É uma ode ao esforço humano. Esforço pelo esforço, pela capacidade e desejo de superação.
Bela apresentação. O I quer dizer que vem mais?
Abraço
