The Old Man and the Sea
 

me and family went out on our sailboat for thursday, friday, and the better part of saturday. it was fun, but with overcast skies for the majority of the time, and a rocking sailboat, i didnt get as many quality pictures as i had hoped. here are some of the better ones, not really in order:

1) Birds on a marker, dime a dozen in the bay

Tampa? Nice set of pictures... ;)

Wow.. a lot of good photos in there. Ones I really like:
The night shot of the bow w/ the red and green (port/starboard) lights reflecting off the railing.
The action shots with the splash off the bow.
The shot looking up between the sails.

Very neat.

Ocean loves the ocean. :)

Some great shots. I like the action shot of the Sailboat.
