Noticed this tiny one tied up at Manly Boat Harbour last Sunday.
Notice the grey clouds...pretend clouds...they are all we get here in Oz.
Our country is in crisis, we need rain...lots of it !!

Nice boat. Hope the situation will change for you, and you´ll get the rain you need.

Hope you will get a relief soon. In the meantime, I will keep on riding my bike, instead of the car - in case we are all responsible for that.

Beautiful shot.

This is such a sharp photo and so well composed. Perhaps the dry air is good for the light for photography. Hope you get rain soon--do you know the Rain Dance?

A beautiful scene, I too would send you our rain if it was possible...we've had far too much.

Great colors in this Laine. Sorry you don't have any rain, you can definitely have some of ours I was thinking of buying some Gopher wood and building an ark. LOL V
Cindi Smith03-Nov-2006 00:26
I thought maybe it was your's! I feel your pain. We have had very little rain in almost a year! I pray you get some soon!!!!!!! I hear your drought has been going on for longer than our's has....

Lovely crisp shot.
Poor Australia. Poor Queensland. I heard on the news yesterday that Brisbane may actually run out of water soon. As well as drought, our farmers are expecting a locust plague.
Craig Persel02-Nov-2006 23:58
Looks like it is heading straight toward the yellow "x" target. :-) Great shot.
Jay Levin02-Nov-2006 23:51
Actually, Laine, I think it's really your boat, and you're just showing it off to us! Even so, I very much enjoyed looking at the photo. Fascinating subject.
virginiacoastline02-Nov-2006 23:46
a boat on skis . . how . . . umm . . . ski-like
Shall I send you some of our cloudbursts?
petesie02-Nov-2006 23:29
I do hope you have relief soon. I understand, I really do. Lovely image.
John Beck02-Nov-2006 22:50
Looks like it may be aspiring to be a skyscraper. 3 decks!
Bob Foisel02-Nov-2006 22:39
It's the dingy for his real BOAT. Very nice capture Laine.
royalld02-Nov-2006 22:36
It looks fast just sitting at the dock.
Al Chesworth02-Nov-2006 22:04
TINY, I will settle for a boat that tiny. OOOPS second thaughts can't afford to fuel it.
That's a bird pulling cat ermaran.
Eric Carrère02-Nov-2006 21:55
