716 Tall Ships - a photo on Flickriver

716 Tall Ships

The Hawaiian Chieftain was one of the other cannon ships.
There was very little wind so the ships moved in slow motion giving me plenty of time to wait for the sails to get in the right place masking the sun.
I was very lucky that at the right time their cannon was fired.
The resulting smoke has provided the ethereal shadows.
Lynx and Lady Washington were the other ships.
-Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most favorited.
