[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
We are still at Flensburg Fjord, the place is Brunsnaes where I spotted this lonely sailor on his way to Flensburg on a day with extremely poor weather. Before the next rainfall the sun was coming through the clouds for some minutes.
The Danish-German border region is a coastal region with very good wind conditions and the singular location on a peninsula between the North and the Baltic Sea causes an exceptional climate, varied weather, and makes the weather forecast a difficult task at times. Normally the winters and the summers are relatively wet, but in August 2008 the number of rainy days had been high above average.
As you can see, Flensburg Fjord is not only a fantastic area for yachtsmen. There are also numerous sandy beaches, exciting diving spots and ideal surfing beaches. And there are many places with good cod and sea trout fishing and the gently rolling countryside with shady woods is ideal for cycling or walking.

Are you sure it is f91!? So it's not only the UK that has had a wetter than average August! You have captured the choppy water particularly well and the hazy background tells its own story of the rain. I think I might have preferred the yacht was not so central. Further left might have been better so he has more of the frame in front of him. Nevertheless a good maritime image.

Hello Harriet,
I like the colours and the mood of the photo which goes very well with the title :)
As far as the composition is concerned... well, I think it's a matter of taste, maybe. I like it this way, though maybe the variant suggested by Kath ("feather") would be nice, too!
best regards,
Elena

Hej Harriet,
I like the different tones of blue! ...and I noticed the little windsurfer in front of the large yatch. Imagin to be out there in a heavy rain fall :).
Take care!

Hi Harriet. Sailboats always catch my eye, well captured. The light on the water adds a nice sparkle. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

Bonjour Harriet,
il a l'air de faire venteux là-bas.
Une photo qui nous transcrit l'ambiance marine.
Les lumières ne osnt peut-être pas des meilleures.
Bien à toi.
Daniel.

Hello Harriet,

The dull tones of blue and the nicely captured choppy water illustrate your meaning perfectly. The composition is good but I would have preferred to see the focal point just a little less central; maybe a little left.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

In spite of the bad weather, you took a very nice picture of this lovely place, and the note is very good too. Thank you for sharing.

Best regards,
JR

Hi Harriet,

Hi Harriet.
Well chosen title to this moody picture. I like the sort of "darkness" that lingers over this photography.
Beautiful...we're waiting for the first drop... :)
Regards, Jan

I can still vividly remember being up in Oregon, U.S recently and it was raining and windy by the coast, this takes me back there with the rain and choppy water. I can hear the sound of the wind and wave and the smell of the ocean. Good image considering the low light, good composition and detail. Thanks

Hi Harriet!

Beautiful and meaningful photo, like a sign that summer's almost gone! Simple but excellent, "central" composition and marvellous light managment! Congratulations!

Hercules

This rainy sky give a more dramatic atmosphere to your picture. Well done.
Best wishes,
Achim

Nice shot, I wish the subject wasn't so centred also I would perhaps add more contrast and brightness.

I'm not participating often on TE because of server problems.

hi Harriet

The faded look of the atmosphere gives a very interesting appeal to this sailboat capture making it appear like early morning fog. Nicely captured composition although I wish the boat is off center, a few seconds to wait before shutter click.

tfs, bill

Hi Harriet,
The long sleak sailboat cuts quite a figure as it moves swiftly across the silver blue sea below the misty blue sky.
Regards, Tom
