Amerigo Vespucci entering harbor, a photo from West-Vlaanderen, Flanders

Photographer's Note

The Italian sail strianing ship Amerego Vespucci entering Zeebruge harbor, at the end of the 1990 Cutty Sark Tall ships' Race. The small tug is used to facilitate the harbor manoeuvers. The fore part of the harbor is very large and make turning rather easy.

In workshop, another view at the same time, our own ship, Sedov, under tow in the harbor area.

Additional workshop suggested by Batalay, a squarer framing.

PS Elements 5.0 + Neatimage

Hello Emmanuel,
It is always a pleasure to see yet another of your great tall ships. I believe, a little more or a little less of the ship you are sailing on would help this image. Indeed, it may even be good to post this lovely site as a square 800x800 pixels, including perhaps a dramati frame. But this is just an alternative thought.
Warm regards,
Bulent

Salut Patrick, encore une merveille flottante, pour moi un des plus beau voilier ( après le Belem, bien sur ) Amitiés.

Salut Emmanuel,
On imagine la force de ces remorqueurs pour tirer ces lourds voiliers.
Les manœuvres doivent être parfois difficile également.
Bonne photo pour nous faire découvrir tout ça.. !
Bien à toi et bonne soirée.
Patrick

Hi,
very nice photo of one very nice ship! I like the colours and the sharpness, but i would prefer to see this photo without the other two boats and maybe with the classical ship closer.
I will do one workshop to show you my point of view. I hope you like it!!

Take care
Pedro Almeida

Bonjour Emmanuel
Once again an impressive shot of the majestic ship entering the harbour & the tugboat leading it. The colours are wonderful & the sharpness crystal clear. Once again a delight to watch
Regards
Angshu
