Photographer’s Note

The Tyrrhenian Sea (Italian: Mar Tirreno) is part of the Mediterranean Sea off the western coast of Italy. The maximum depth of the sea is 3785 m.

The name for this sea derives from the Greek name for the Etruscans, who were said to be emigrants from Lydia and led by the prince Tyrrhenus.

In Greek mythology, it is believed that the cliffs above the Tyrrhenian Sea housed the four winds kept by Aeolus.

I hope you like
the various shaped boats and vessels,
the blue of the sea and
the composition also.
