sea trials

a friend called me down to the seaside to witness the first sea trials of his latest toy...an unusual fiberglass sailboat he had bought for a bargain price...the trials were a success, although in truth there was little wind, and all he really did was float around the bay on a warm evening

The lack of wind gives this a much more relaxed mood and pose. Very nice lighting and background. "V"

Love the vibrant colours in the sail and I like how it echoes the skyscrapers in the distance.

To float in this superb bay has to be a real pleasure and this image suggests it perfectly. V.
