Sailing off the coast of Funchal, Madeira

Gorgeous light here Peter.

Hi Jaap

Your visit and kind words are much appreciated. I took this from the deck of another boat rolling around on the sea, so all difficulties considered, I am very happy you like the result!

In the silver sea and bronze light the silhouette of the boat is like a dream! I'm looking forward to your whale and dolphin photos!

My dear Füsun,

I am so happy that you enjoyed this one, thank you so much!!
It was on the way back from seeing the whales. The afternoon was turning into evening. Soon it would be dark, but sadly no moon..

Love Peter

We have a sky like that here now. It's the middle of the day and caused by dust being blown from much dryer areas to our West. This has also raised the temp to 37C and there is 10% humidity.

Hi Graham,

Thank you so much for your visit here! This situation is a little different, It is looking west in the evening. The sun is in the middle of a thick bank of cloud as it sets. Not sure of the temperature, but it was unusually cool... (Maybe usual for the sea!)

Hi Peter,

What a superb shot! I love the colours and the strong silhouette! The colourtones are beautiful.

Best wishes,
Rosa.

Hi Rosa

Thank you so much for your nice comment and visit. It was about dusk, and the sun was in the cloud somewhere.. When we got back into the harbour it was just about on the horizon, and very hazy. I am so pleased that you like it.

Best Wishes
Peter

Love this silhouette in liquid gold... hope you are having a nice time!

Hi Isabel

Thank you so much!

I am very happy that you like it

I was only there a few days, but came back with a lot of photos, so a lot more of Madeira to come!!

Best Wishes
Peter

Wonderful backlight!

Hi Erhard,

Thank you for your very kind visit.

The evening sun, and the ocean mist, on our way back to the harbour after whale watching.

Hi Peter !
Thank you for sharing this magnificent moment: an evening dream where the silhouette of the boat seems to suspended between the bronze backlight and the delicately rippling silvery sea.

Best wishes
Bea

Hi Bea,

Thank you for such exciting words! I was happy because I had seen the whales, and this view of another sailing boat was the icing on the cake!!

Best Wishes
Peter
