Masts

Masts seen over the wall of the Petit Port.

It looks like it was taken at sunset but in fact I took it at 9.30 in the morning on a dull day.

  2. Amy, I'm going to add a few words along with the photo - I agree it looks like it was taken at sunset but in fact it was 9.30 in the morning on a dull day. Go figure!

  4. Somehow this post inspires me to write a poem...I'm not good at writing poetry, but the unfurled sails, the (now I know it's morning) budding day, the bird in flight...

    Very nice shot.

  6. Thanks for the visit, Jilly. Those colors you saw are now long gone down the stream, like your morning masts have turned out and left the harbor.

    To the lonely ship and sky
    and all I ask is a tall ship
    and a star to steer her by"

  11. Sorry so few comments lately. I'm punching through to the end of this run of work mega-overload. I look at this picture and think: she live on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. I live on the banks of the Mississippi River. Who got the better deal?
