Cornelius - Though still with sails furled, there is a majesty about a multi-masted sailboat such as this. Your trademark clarity and color are evident in this fine shot. Thad
Excellent clear details on The Astrid. I enjoy this perspective leaving the harbour. The surroundings seems to similar to what I see locally. Without such a grand vessel as this of course. Thank you for sharing it.

p.s. it's still in Flushing, infact I am looking at it now...hehe...It's last sail out of the harbor from Flushing will be July the 7th to go to Antwerpen.
Wat een mooie foto Cornelius. De stralende blauwe lucht en het wiite schip. Een tweemaster als ik me niet vergis.. Jij voelt je thuis bij het water en dat voel je als je naar deze mooie foto kijkt. Klasse! Groetjes, Mich.
The reason why the sunsets 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
Did you ever sail any of these Sea? This is a great photo and all the colors really combine to make it beautiful. It makes me want to go aboard. It also gave me the excuse to listen to this song.
Good health to you and yours.
Wonderful image Cornelius. I love it when the tall ships come to Liverpool. Last time they came in 2008 over a million people watched the Parade of Sail as they left the river. I wonder if The Astrid was among them?
Wonderful shot and a beauty of a boat. That is what I miss about being here instead of my home town in Nova Scotia, where I could see them sailing into the harbour. I keep this and make believe it's real.
Hello Cornelius....A lovely capture of this sailing ship departing the harbour....I like the way you have captured the light on the starboard side of the ship....Well done....All the best to you Cornelius.............................Mick.
Oh! the ships leaving!....sorry, my mistake pal...lol
I would just love to be on that ship!....Sail boats are my favourite!...
