Almost sunken? Happily not. It's just an optical illusion due to the fact that both an image is two dimensional instead of three dimensional and to the waves caused by by the pretty high (choppy) sea state. Think it was the reason too that the skipper hasn't hoisted the sails of his 'Roodbaard' ('Red beard') Dutch sailing boat, but has chosen for the motorized propulsion mode now in order to reach safely his destination.

The image was taken at the North Sea off the Belgian coast.

That looks like a rough ride! I love how you captured this and the title is perfect, it has a good dimensional look, and think it's very good.

AH, what a beautiful day for sailing. A bit choppy, maybe, more sun would be nice, is the beer cold?

I hope he stays true to naval traditions and goes down with the ship..However I think It's the Ocean swell that gives that impression..R.

It all looks good, Cornelius! I don't think I care for that type of adventure myself. It looks rough.

Wonderful scene that you have captured perfectly. The angle is perfect and actually, I would not mind at all being there!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

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
