Lovely. You captured the schooner perfectly, and the light is quite appealing.

Tim, that backlit schooner is very nice indeed. One might brighten the background just a touch.

Re: PESO: Pretty boat
The picture of the sailboat has a wonderful mood. The wine, in moderate amounts, may help to hold the 400mm steady. :-) Jostein Tim Bray wrote: >Two masts, four sails, sun from behind: http://goo.gl/iDw5b > >There was another boat, and the an amusing visual narrative: >http://goo.gl/pBLFx > >These are both with the ancient eBayed Tokina 400mm.
