Looks like almost sailing to me too ;o) I used to like coiling the ropes, very satisfying ;o)
Picturit: Mike you are hired on my crew...I always make sure I have a neat and well kept boat...no mess...
Astrid.
Certainly appears to be signifying a capability to be sailing, Astrid.
Did you actually sail on this vessel, or just content yourself with grabbing excellent photo-opportunities?
Picturit: I wished I could sail with this one....I have been sailing for many years though, now I only look and have my dreams
Astrid.
Happy Birthday to Sander! He will ALWAYS be your bigger brother, dear Astrid. What a splendid tribute for his special day. I know he's proud of you, as he should be!
Just think: If it weren't for him, you would not be here on SC.
Picturit: Yes it is because of him that I saw all the pictures on SC and decided to join too, he is proud of me, he said so many times, you know we skype every saterday and we discuss all kind of things, photography is one of it, he is a very good photographer too.
Thanks Ginnie as always.... Astrid.
Excellent in many ways old salt. Enjoy Texel - so when will you be working on the project?
Picturit: On the 30st of Mai we will be working on the project again....I will get some more ideas from the island.
Astrid.
Great DOF and composition !!! I love this simplicity, the tones and the subject ... Boats ... hum ...
Picturit: Thank you so much for your kind words, I love boats, sea, water, sailing.....
Astrid.
een erg toepasselijk levens- beeld om te feliciteren! Ik wens Sander (wie is hij?) "Ahoi, Ahoi" voor een gelukkig en vervuld nieuw jaar!
Picturit: Thanks Philine, Sander is my brother, my only brother and he lives on Vancouver Island, he emigrated about 35 years ago...it is his birtday today...hij is jarig vandaag, schip ahoy voor hem ook....en we vermaken ons
prima hier op een heel zonnig Texel. Groetjes Astrid.
You old sea dog you, just carn't keep away
Shiver me timbers what a great shot and tribute to your brother Astrid. Happy birthday to Sander...
Picturit: Thanks a lot my dear friend, I know I am an old pirate...cannot help it, I guess I was ailing the big seas in my former life!!
Astrid.
Goedemorgening from the vast letter writer that is chad, Astrid. You must know your ropes with all these images you post. I must rush with lots to do and credit crunch and coughie to fit in first. lol at blackdog...give him a simple job and he's happy.
Picturit: Okay Chad we take the big sails than...Mike will make sure the ropes are not in one big knot...
Dank je wel vaste briefschijver..... tot morgen Astrid.

One of the pleasures of my life has been splicing the mainbrace Astrid. I hope you get a nice healthy suntan
Picturit: Thanks, I have a nice suntan already, just being outide and the wind will do the job
Astrid.
Terrific shot Astrid, great dof.
Picturit:
Astrid.
Love the simplicity of this shot Astrid. There is something about the combination of steely blue and rusty brown that really works well.
Ingrid
Picturit: Thank you Ingrid, your words mean a lot to me, this was a really nice boat and I love to sail myself so that is the reason I have some pictures of rope, water, sea.....
Astrid.
good DOF
Picturit: Thanks Chantal, it was a great boat.
Astrid.
Excellent shot in all ways Astrid. Have a great time in Texel!
Picturit: Thank you Richard, we are having a marvelous time here, sun, wind...it is just great.
Astrid
Lucky you to be by the water.
Sweet composition on this one, all that open space with water. The wood is beautiful, mostly what I find beautiful about boats.
Picturit: Ruth, when I see boats I have to look at them, I love to sail, I love the water, love the beach that is why we are always very pleased to be able to come to this island.
Astrid
What a nice simple composition Astrid, i love the blue colour of the water. Have a nice holiday. Brian.
Picturit: Thank you Brian, we are having a great time, the weather is very nice, sun, wind and a nice temperature.
Astrid.
Just enjoy your holiday Astrid ... dont worry about us involved with the hum drum daily life styles .. be selfish and for a short while forget about those SC rascles ... and come back refreshed energised and ready to battle with the likes of sheep and cat's eyes to name but two. richard
Picturit: LOL Richard....the daily humdrumlifestyles......and the SCrascals, this is a very good disciption....I will do just a little and I will look so once in a while...but on this island are thousands of sheep only cat-eyes I haven't seen yet.
Astrid.
Enjoy, have fun, and share the fun here okay?
Picturit: I will share some fun too....that is why I post so once in a while...
Astrid.
Living on an Island these ferries and boats are a familiar ssight. Well taken, Astrid.
Picturit: I know you know this life, for me it is always a very happy time..and I love to come here.
Astrid.

Picturit: Thanks Tim for your kind wishes, we do have a great time here

Picturit: Thanks Martin, we are having a great time, the weather is great, much wind though, but I know you remember that from your visit to the Netherlands.
Astrid.

Astrid.
Enjoy the trip. Like the way you framed and composed this shot. Nice details and DOF.
Picturit: Thanks John, I like everything about boats, vessels, sailing sea, beach...name it...
Astrid.
A really wonderful photo, I like the contrast between the warm brown/yellow color and the cold blue background.
Picturit: Thank you so much Jan Erik, this is what I like about the boats, the woodwork and the smell of tar and the salty smell of the sea..
Astrid.
enjoy!
Picturit: Thanks, I will
Astrid
I love these types of vessels. They are just full of small exciting details.
I like the brown/blue color play, it works really well
Picturit: Thanks Bo, I always have to walk by and lok at them, so much to see and I would love to go out and sail this vessel.
Astrid.
Very good composition used here!
This photo has a excellent mood. Wonderful composition!
