The Belgian Pilot Vessel 'Ravelingen' takes a 'shower for free' while approaching a seagoing vessel on the North Sea (off the coast of the peninsula Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands).

My weekly entry for the B&W challenge.

Wow, I hope they got the hatches battened down. That is a big wake. Excellent capture here and the B&W really makes it.

I'd like to be sailing in its wake, Mr. C. It does kick up some pretty waves, almost hides the boat.

That's some wake she's kicking up! I also bet she has a lot of horsepower as well.

I'd say they are really speeding along. Great capture and a fine one for the black and white challenge.

The North Sea must be one bad body of water. It's always rough looking which makes for good photos however.

Smile, without a reason why. Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way. (From the film "Life Is Beautiful")

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

It's fine if you're in the cabin but if your on deck, you better hang on. Interesting hull design. Is that for ice or to deflect the waves? Good action shot and expertly captured. A good entry for the B&W Challenge.
