Festival of Sail L.A. 2008 San Pedro

Photos are in random order.

A full day of seafarin' fun. Highlights of the day was the Bounty (from the original Mutiny on the Bounty film 1962) and the HMS Surprise (used in Master and Commander). There were 14 Tall Ships in all. I did not have time to board and shoot all of them. I did manage to board and shoot about 5 of them. Also there are some shots from the Maritime Museum and more shots from a short trip around the Palos Verdes Peninsula later in the day.
