Alun, Alun, Alun.....got it right this time. What a beautiful ship. Is it one of the "tall ships". Gorgeous capture, perfect framing and the sky is incredible.

grouser from Ludlow, United Kingdom
Aha Alun. Which one is this then? I thought they were all on their way to Funchal. If so the navigation skills of this crew are not to be desired. Unless they are taking the scenic route. Lovely picture.

@grouser: this was taken the day they left Liverpool. They came up the river and then sailed out of the river as they let there sails down, Cheers

So anachronistic - it seems like a ship floating in out of a time warp. I love the superb clarity, too!
