Terrific shot of a terrific model. Like the play of light on her sails, the way her dolphin striker is buried deep (that's the pointy thing hanging down of the bowsprit), and the illusion of rough water. At first glance, she appears to be clawing off a singularly well kept shore -- until you realize it's a lake and a model. Great action shot.
When I was a boy in 1949 I once watched a 3-masted brig sail out of Christianstead, VI, and this ship is far classier!
