[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is "Seamaster". the boat of the late Sir Peter Blake, world-reknowned yachtsman. He and his crew were filming an underwater documentary in Antarctica and welcomed us onboard one afternoon. Sadly, he was killed by bandits months later while docked outside of Manaus, Brazil.

Hello Michael.
What were you doing in Antartica? Not a usual destination for most, which makes this very interesting.
Well composed, with a nice balance of elements. It looks good as you've presented it, but was it actually so blue?
Yours, Andrew.

Michael, Excellent composition and POV. Your Antarctica photos are wonderful. I think Sir Peter was from New Zealand if not mistaken. Thanks for making the mmemorium comments.

Hello Michael,

Now, this schooner is called Tara and sails in Antarctica / Patagonia. The skipper projects to drift in Arctic during 2 years. See the website, the link "Tara Arctic".

I saw twice the film of this expedition of Seamaster in Antarctica.

Your picture is very wellcone and composed.
