TiG (water) - sailing by moonlight

TiG (water) - sailing by moonlight
An unknown tall ship silhouetted against a full moon.
[possibly aided by photoshop]
She has her bows and stern directly in line, but I think, from counting the yards, that she is square-rigged on at least two masts, the fore and main, If she has a mizzen, it may have a spanker.

not my image : fair use & educational purposes.

What an absolutely stunning picture. Does the mizzen mean it's spanked regularly? LOL

A lovely silhouette, I admit I'm undecided about the moon

Hi Sara,

A very nice image, but as you have said, very clearly photoshopped moon. (If you look carefully you can see a border on the bottom half, and some parts through the rigging which are not a red colour).
But, if the person who made it wants to print it and put it on his living room wall for all to admire, then why not!!

Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Yes, possibly. But nevertheless very interesting.
