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?
Excellent shot of this "Old Timer" moving so smoothly Cornelius. The replica has been constructed so well and beautifully.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Not only a beautiful capture, but a beautiful ship. These always make me think of Pirates and movies like "Mutiny on the Bounty' and things like that. I have never been on one, but I would love to, one day. Thanks for the link, too. I enjoyed it.

I had difficulty pronouncing her name. But then again, I was never able to pronounce the seaside city of Scheveningen when I visited on holiday! I initially thought this vessel was a restoration. She is a beautiful replica; wonderfully photographed with her colorful flags, Cornelius.

Presentation done with love ...
The lines of this lady are perfect, superb.
Editing shows your emotional approach to the subject - no mindgames here - you have salt water in your veins and it shows plainly.:)
The only, minor objection are the people aboard. I would have shouted at them something like: "Lie down, sea gulls full of s...t are coming" to make them disappear for a moment...LOL

"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
She's a beauty Cornelius - they did superb work in the reproduction of the sailboat - I would like to be on deck and see the inside of the ship and assist in hoisting the mainsail. Excellent Capture!!!

Ah, according to your link, this ship was a past time of the affluent and the ships had many amenities. I'm trying to make out what the red figurehead is. Beautiful detailed image!

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Light foot 1967
This image shows how much you like the seas and all vessels
sailing or steaming on them.

----What is the huge triangular piece of wood on the side?---
Pat aka Momma: it's a leeboard hanging next to the ship, one to starboard and one to port. It's a retractable part of a sailboat without keel, used against the drift (the sideways movement of the boat).
