[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The photograph shows the Rumanian ship Mircea docked at Middlehaven in Middlesbrough on its way to the Tall Ships Race at Newcastle. The ship in the background is a floating nightclub called Tuxedo Royale. These tall ships are magnificent and have attracted thousands of people to see them.
I would have preferred a photograph with these ships in full sail but this only happens when they are out at sea beyond the range of my camera.
The Mircea was built between 1938 and 1939 at Hamburg in Germany and is a class A barque (a three masted sailing boat).
I may upload some other photos of the tall ships shortly.

Hi Brian,fine image with great detail,colours and POV are great nice big sky too, Its a pity the other ship is in port ,takes a bit of the eye away from your wonderful tall ship.
very well done,ah, just looking at your notes that i see the other ship is probiably a permanent fixture.
regards Dave.

Good shot Brian. The light is good (evening?) I also like the colours in the sky.
There is a Tall Ships Race theme you might want to consider adding this to.

Great POV and lighting, pity you could not wait to the boat at the but had gone.

Nice one Brian! I have just posted a shot of the Mircea too a kind of morror image of yours. I much prefer the end of day lighting you have got though.

Well done : )

C'est un fameux bateau... Vraiment il a de l'allure. Dommage qu'un bâtiment moderne soit en fond. J'ai tenté un WS pour le supprimer.

Pour l'avoir visité à la Tall Ships à Cherbourg il y a quelques jours, je peux effectivement affirmer que ce grand trois mâts est superbe ! Très bien entretenu avec un équipage charmant :o) Une belle majesté sur l'eau...
Belle exposition ici qui met bien en valeur la couleur jaune de ses mâts et la bordure sur la coque. Tu as de plus bénéficié d'un magnifique ciel ! Quelle chance ! Bravo Brian !

Good shot Brian, pity about Tuxedo Royale in the background. Well done

Ged

great to see the whole height of the ship in the picture but like ged said on the previous comment the tuxedo royale spoils the background but great pic

Great depth in the photo!

Nice picture with a very good DOF and contrast. POV should be few degrees at left to avoid Tuxedo Royale

Hi Brian,
te encantan los barcos verdad? el cielo... el mar...

Sabes encontrar y plasmar a la perfección esa combinación.

No entiendo mucho de fotografía, pero si se que esta me gusta. Has sabido encuadrarla muy bien y los colores son sublimes! ;-)
greetings,
Eva

*thanks for your comment

Isn't it beautiful?Very nice photo and very well framed. The colors are just beautiful.
All the best
Isabela

You've done a good job to fill the frame with this wonderful ship. The colour and contrast balance are both good too.
Nice work, PHIL
