This might make for a great black and white image.

I like the composition and the sky in this Pam. Though somehow I don't think Capt. Cook had an inflatable dingy with him back in 1770

Nice capture!
Isn't she the Bounty Replica that came through French Polynesia on the 200th anniversary of the Mutiny??? I sailed on her and spent 3 days aboard her while in Tahiti, they wanted to do some photo's of her inside the lagoon and sailing out the pass on Tahaa and on to Bora Bora. I was along to be the pilot and keep them in the channel and to show them where to anchor in Bora. I got to climb the mast and set the top gallants and to reef them. To do that had been a dream all my life. It was one of the few things that I had never done as a sailor and I will remember that until the day I die. I don't know any american who has ever done that and having spent 20 years in the Navy, I had been up the masts to work on the various antennas that we maintained, but it wasn't the same... As we used to say in the Nav, "Iron men and wooden ships".....

Hi Ken and Welcome to Shuttertalk, the ship is a replica of the 'Endeavour' the one in which James Cook came to Australia 1788, it sailed to Newcastle and was the big attraction at a Maritime event held a couple of weekends ago.
Glad you like the image.

Your picture would look beautiful in a promotional poster Pat...
I didn't see it before. It is a beautiful picture and I agree with Matt about a bw version. It would be very interesting to see.. I really don't know much about boats. Thanks a lot for the info...
