I like so much some of those pictures on the Sunset/Sunrise picture thread that I think it is a pity that I cannot see other great pictures that are not related with sunset or sunrise and I know you guys have them.
I want to see those beautiful pictures so I am open this thread for it.
Some rules : Utilize a site like photobucket, imageShack, Photoshelter or similar site to host the photos before post here, don't post bigger than 800/600, preferably that size (15" screen) and post only one photo each time. you can post more after others have posted.
Of course, these are only suggestions, do what you like if you do not agree, except in what regards Max size. Bigger will make difficult to see them on laptops.
Well, first one:
2006, Esteiro, Rias Galegas, Galiza, North of Spain.
Baiona, Galiza, North of Spain, near the Portuguese border. Very nice place, great food and Albarino wine. You can stay on anchor (very good shelter) or at the marina.
This is an incredible place (google earth for it) and a marvelous place to sail a small sailing boat (there was some sailing boats on the other side but the light was bad).
I have already posted some photos about Baiona (Galiza) one of my favorite places. The ones I have posted were taken on the marina. These ones will give a better oulook.
Not sailing related, but a photo from my trip at the weekend. Near Whitehorse, Yukon (Canada for those that are geographically challenged). We were wilderness camping and dog-sledding.
Not such a perfect moment but interesting none the less. Last night we peaked out at 74 knots - 147 Km/hr beside my boat at the Maritime Museum. On my boat I had a sustained 55 knot reading most of the night.
Yowza! It blew pretty hard here as well. Apparently the ferries were shut down for a time this morning - sure was a big backup in the lot at H.S. Bay.
I drove through Tiddley Cove this aft. Yesterday there was a nice Shark moored near the dock, a scruffy Soling moored behind it and a mastless Grampian 23 behind that (it had been washed ashore, dismasted and recovered from the head of the cove last year).
Today there was a mastless Soling, a mastless Shark that dragged past the Soling and dismasted both of them and no G23 - well, at low tide there WAS a bow pulpit showing a little.
Photo is in Phang Nga Bay area of Thailand, north of the Panyi Island fishing village. I was grounded in a tidal river and spent nearly nine hours waiting to float off this big sand bar. Almost ran out of beer.
