Else, good exposure. Tricky one with all the whites and the brightness. I would have been tempted to flip the cam and do some shots in portrait mode to show the mast/sail etc... If you have already then great! this image would add to a series of images of this glorious looking craft

Hi Tedz and Tco ..
Thank you both for your visit and comments .. Fred is not good at standing around .. I have the patience of Job .. lol .. and I will chat up anyone .. so that kept me busy .. lol .. I don't think that I had time to flip the camera .. on this particular boat but I did take some in portrait format. . I wish that I could have got close-ups with the spinner blowing in the wind .. love the look of that .. but .. the wind would not oblige .. dang it .. lol ..
Cheers
Else
