Variety is the spice of life, therefore I like to provide you with a maritime image this time.
Depicted is the Dutch pilot tender 'Gemini' on her way to a 'customer' on Flushing Roads, Zeeland, The Netherlands. Hope the pilot will stay dry while entering the seagoing vessel (not because of the sea spray but because of the approaching rain showers, lol).

Excellent picture, Mr C. Maybe we could use a gallery for "heroes!"

"Hope the pilot will stay dry" - I once had an Elbe pilot who wanted a drink soon after taking over from me! He didn't want to stay dry. They don't do all that now-a-days of course. Lovely shot of the pilot boat rushing out to the incoming vessel. Clear details and nice colours.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
I can't imagine what it must be like on the sea in a storm. This is very good Mr. C. with you perfect style of composing. tigs=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
A beautiful shot Mr. C. I love the white water created by the Gemini.

Life is a Constant Audition
If there is anything certain in this world, this is that the pilot WILL get wet all over for both reasons! LOL
Do not pretend that you do not recall ! :)
This is a tough job that takes real tough men. BTW I never heard about any female pilot, have you ?!
Thanks for this eye-opener - I needed that badly, having finished working around 07:00 hrs ...

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
I like the depth between the two vessels, Cornelius. Your photo tells the story of a pilot's job. With what they get paid ($$$!), a little water shouldn't dampen their spirits.

Smile, without a reason why. Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way. (From the film "Life Is Beautiful")
That is a most wonderful action shot, Mr. C. I love the way the water and the sky look. Superb photography.

Awesome shot!
Love the bright colours of the pilot boat against the sea and threatening sky. Also like the way it draws you into the 'action'.
Excellent stuff!!!

Well captured sea scene - I too hope the rain did not get him but I'm guessing they must go out in any weather to bring the vessels in. Excellent post Mr. C. - the marine shots are always interesting.

"What a desolate place would be a world without a flower!
It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome." A.J. Balfour
I'm sure they're used to being out in such rough seas, but it still take nerves of steal! Great lighting on this one.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Light foot 1967
In looking at your fine image, I wouldn't have had any knowledge of what was going on, however, your narrative made this shot far more interesting. I can now comphrehend the urgency to try to get ahead of the impending storm. The Gemini looks to be under full throttle creating waves in her wake and those clouds look mighty ominous. Great Capture Cornelius!!!

VIEWED IN FULL *** HAPPY EASTER
Great action shot and the mood of scene with the pilot rushing out to the awaiting vessel with storm clouds looming overhead is really caught well!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Good capture of this...high drama indeed!
