twisting in the wind

a fierce wind made it difficult to hold the camera steady, and also caused problems for these sailors trying to deploy a sail..it was left twisting in the wind for several minutes

Certainly looks pretty windy and blustery out there - don't get blown away David! Nicely composed, I like echo of blue across the boats' sails

A spinnaker with a twist. The sailors must be cursing. Lovely shot on a blustery day with lots to explore in the background. V

Great perspective and nice choice of focal length in this well composed image. "V"

The spinnaker is blocked in 8!
it is not easy to drive in this condition near the ways of cargo
