What a great looking ship... hard work getting all those sails up I should think...!

Such a graceful looking craft, but I prefer to watch it with a steady stomach from dry land!

Beautiful capture of this tall ship. I can tell the wind is blowing from the flag. Nice exposure and detail.

Wonderful shot Sheila! Amazing how many people must be on it, and amazing
how people crossed the globe on such a small ship without all the
navigational assistance available in today's world.

What a delightful vessel.

It must take quite awhile to learn all the rigging on this magnificent ship.
