Whether you're a veteran cruiser, championship-level racer, or simply getting started in the sport, set your waypoint for the Salone Nautico del Salento In Brindisi(april 30 – may 4). Lately this boat show has become a must do event for all sailors.

It’s five-day show with international flavor which features the newest and best in Coastal cruisers, small dinghies, multihulls, racer/cruisers, and boats built to go the distance offshore from manufactures around the world, the latest accessories, sailing gear, charter information and the newest technologies from more than 200 exhibitors, with more than 300 boats in the water ranging in sizes, for sailors of every ability and budget.

Browsing the docks I’ve seen the world's most impressive fleet of powerboats-in the water: board sport fishing boats, cruisers, high-performance boats and yachts. Some were available for demo runs!
Visitors of all ages could experience the thrill of sailing under the supervision of an experienced sailor, to the pleasure and joys of the sport while remaining in a controlled environment.
For the more experienced sailor, there are more activities to improve their skills and become more confident at the helm.

World adventure cruisers, authors, experts in navigation software, and sailing equipment specialists will share their stories and knowledge at the show's extensive seminar program.

See ws' too.

Hello Stella.
The wonderful sky and the very strong light conditions
makes this image really special. An eye-catcher!
Well done.
Eddie

Hello Stella,

A lovely marina shot under a threatening sky. The strawberries in the one of the two ws-versions is especially appealing to me right now. (But there appears to be a problem in dates: it was posted a day before it was shot.)

Warm regards,

Bulent

Bonsoir, ma bonne amie Stella,
Vous avez un talent certain pour mettre en scène des moments de la vie quotidienne sous un angle magique. Le ciel donne toute la beauté de la composition, il fait ressortir à merveille le sujet principal.
Les marins inquiets regardent le ciel avec crainte !
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hello Stella! I like scene here! The sky and masts of sailboats they give a picture that impresses. Good prospect and beautiful the choices to the WS...
Regards
Georgios

Good morning Stella and I wish you to have nice May.
In few days we will have in Poros the same boat show. The only different is that here comes all the professional Yacht which are for renting from VIP. These boats are really very impressive. For example to rent one from the big one, costs about 70000-100000 Euros per day.
Your photo gives me the feeling that I am there. Squeeze boats one next to the other and people to look at them dreaming travels round the world.
The sky is very impressive even if does not suit so much with the people's dreams about traveling under a blue sky....
Warm regards
Kostas

happy mayday stella,

nice symmetric shot with beautiful prespective,the sky is also very good and strong,galantis

Hello Stella,
That moody sky 'makes' this composition for me. That and the perspective along the wooden walkway framed by the repeating motifs of the yacht masts. Very good clarity.

bonjour,
un tres beau contraste avec le blanc des bateaux et le ciel vraiment magnifique laissant présager l'ondée....
un tres bon cadrage de ces bateaux à quai, belles couleurs
excellente composition
juliette

Hello Stella,
A nice marina view under a wild sky. You presented the daily life in a marina with a nice frame.
Best regards,
Tulay

Stella, well I love boats and the sea so you got me... The sky in the bg looks threatening and I love how no one seems to bother about it, like sailors everwhere they know things are going to get anyway so why fight it. Fine color and detail as always.

Greg

Hi Stella .
A very dramatic photo with great colours and your composition with the vertical criss cross lines makes this photo interesting and very special !
Have a nice weekend !
Kindest regards¨
Dorte.

hello Stella,
bright white of the boats against the dark gray and blue sky create a powerful photo, I like it a lot. interesting how all the accents - woman's trousers, the rope, the detail in the flag are red, while everything else is white and different tones of blue :) I find that the combination of just these three colours make the shot very elegant. smart composition too, the pier nicely leads the eye into the photo. excellent work, my compliments.

with best regards,
Kristine

This is really great! I love the pov and the colors!!! Well done. TFS

Belle le nuvole così importanti che dominano la scena.

Ciao carissima
Una foto stupenda con un campo di profondita e un cielo proprio il tuo stile cosi a mood e cosi minaccioso per essere proprio magnifico. I pattern delle barche da vela e la gente in mezzo fanno questa foto uno stupendo immagine. Complimenti Stella. ihsan

Woawww Stella
What a beautiful and dramatic sky is this
Wonderful photo with nice atmosphere
Best regards
Nick

Ciao Stella,
veramente bella questa fila di barche all'ormeggio con tanta gente laboriosa intorno ad esse, nonostante lenuvole si addensino minacciose. Contrasto forte e dominante.

Ludo

Ciao Stella, bella sfilata di barche sotto un cielo impressionante, brava, ciao Silvio

Ciao Stella,

Ottimo scatto questo, spero solo che il gielo grigio non abbia disturbato la festa..

Andrea

Hi Stella,
The composition and your P.O.V. are great in this shot. By the looks of those clouds I bet not many boats went out that day. Great shot,

Hi Stella,

marvelous! Simply stunning contrast of darkish sky and bright white sailboats. Judging from flags and vivid sky formation the weather is quite windy. Excellent chosen angle to stress the perspective feeling and all lines from masts leading to sea scape. Beautiful.

Warm regards,
Jeri

Stella,
le tue foto emozionano. La tua sensibilità fotografica si riflette nei tuoi scatti. Sei veramente brava.

very nice photo here Stella,
I like the perspective and the marvelous light against the dark sky, good composition and well seen have a nice evening.
gr. jaap

Hi Stella,
Nice composition, although to my opinion a bit busy, with a lot of symmetry by the masts. What strikes me most is the so dominating threatening and impressive sky.
Well done,
Henri
