The waves haven’t hit the boat yet. The lines are nice in this shot.

I didn’t really think about the waves hitting the boat. My glass must have been have full when I described this image 🙂

Thank you Fergie. I’ve been to this spot many times but had never seen so many boats as I saw that day.

Thank you Sallyann. I’m pleased you like the twinkles – I did think about excluding them at first; so glad I didn’t 🙂

Hello Finn! Many thanks; I’m pleased you like it. Durlston Head is one of my favourite places to sit and look out to sea. I love it.

Me too! I’ve sat there many times up behind the lighthouse and watched peregrines chasing gulls and all the other wonderful sights.

I wondered if that was Durlston. Great header – I wish I’d thought of it first 😉

Creates an intriguing blend of abstract line and seascape. It would be interesting to see this one in B&W and how it effects the mood of the piece. Well done !

Thank you Elmediat. I did try it in B&W but it wasn’t quite the same. I was too attached to the silvery-blue sea!
