super pespective on the boat
the placement and cropping are excellent as they indicate its speeding quite well and has just entered the frame and if we blink its about to leave too
youve caught a nice patch of highlight within the shadow of the sail and despite a turbulent sea (which if i was _forced_ to complain would be my ONLY complaint) we can still make out some of the keel structure
really dynamic colours
Mercy, how did you get that perspective? Quite a boat and beautiful water. I would have cloned out that orange blur over the water on the right side of the boat. Beautiful capture all in all.

Thanks for all your comments. Just to respond to one or two of them - the orange blur under the water is the canting keel.
I was shooting from a little two seater piston engined helicopter (a Robinson 22). It is quite exhilirating - we take the door off, so there is nothing but the seat belt between me and the water.
"What other reason could there be to get up in the morning except to set ourselves free."
If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.
Amazing! I love this shot! I really like that I can see the keel thru the water, and the speed the perspective is giving this shot. Really nicely done! Now a favorite.
