What a wonderful shot...and she is definitely gracious, even regal. The diversity of those reflections is awesome. At the risk of sounding e-Bayish (blush), I must say that this one is a D10F. =)
Excellent night shot! You must have used a tripod or you have a very steady posture? The only thing that may have improved this would be a moon a clouds lit up in the background. Very well composed and the exposure is perfect...your shots are getting better by leaps and bounds as well Rob;-)
Fantastic image.. it just became my desktop.. I really like how the darkness is sort of enveloping the ship, and the light is fighting to keep her luminated. Also - the subtle waves in the water make for a wonderfully blurred reflection.. I really like this picture. 10 out of 10! In fact, the only blemish is some of the flags in the rigging appear to have moved while you took the shot, but hey - thats life on the water. The only think I would like to see is a light source to bring out some of the forward rigging, to sort of case-in the boat. But its still a 10 in my book! The rest would just be icing!
Video games don't cause violence, and I'll kill anyone who says otherwise!
