About Two ships passing at sunset. Ships passing at night There were three but I chose the two closest to the setting sun. Other sunset images I've put up recently will show all three. The peals of the gulls . . . the roar of the surf . . . the sounds of peace and tranquility for me.

There truly is no greater feeling of peace and tranquility then hearing, watching and smelling the salt water as the waves coming rolling in.

Beautiful image and excellent lighting.

wow - this is really cool!! i love the huge waves, and the squish of sun. those clouds on the right are sort of whack, eh? what a great great shot, doyle! i hear you - anytime i am by water, my soul is happy.


Shirley D. Cross   {K:143105} 9/12/2006
Me too...I never tire of listening too and watching the surf. Another beauty, Doyle!

Way to go, Doyle. Did you see a green flash? I like the foreground waves adding interesting balance to the image.

Beautiful sunset scene, really nice perspective, I love the nice golden sunset with the waves in the foreground, the ships are very appealing and add much to the scene, excellent..


Mary Slade   {K:40918} 9/12/2006
You are getting very poetic here Doyle! And I hear music too! Beautifully peaceful image, but strong and so full.

Thanks dearest Lisa . . . I appreciate your support!

Thanks Jessie! To the right . . . in point of fact . . . is land . . . not clouds! :)

Thanks Shirley. JROTC training in High School included Beach survival training. I could live forever on a beach . . . and would if I became homeless!

Wow Dave . . . didn't know people were aware of the reputed green flash!!!!! It DOES exist . . . but is very fast. Might make a great capture to a lucky photog!!

Thanks Marcus! And STILL I couldn't even get a good seagull shot. How on Earth do you do it!! I'm off to SF this Friday . . . and VERY excited!

Thanks Mary . . . very high praise coming from a true poet . . . I like to think my soul is very poetic. The truth is, like Salieri . . . God has granted me the ability to recognize a skill He didn't bother to give to me. You are a poet . . . I'm a lucky man who, from time to time . . . can seem poetic. But I have no complaints . . . I have been given Sooooo much in life! :)

Doyle I <~~~~~

Juan Gonzalo Marcano Prieto   {K:14224} 9/12/2006
bella muy bella toma, veo que hay muchos barco me imagino a hay un puerto, otra para mis favoritas, excelente


Doyle D. Chastain   {K:99842} 9/12/2006
Spent three days testing at the time . . . but wouldn't care to live like that so I'd have to agree . . . I wouldn't want to test that!! I mean - where oh where would I recharge my camera battery? And sand in the lenses? Forget where the computer gets plugged in! It's not really like Gilligan's Island . . . there'd be no bicycle to peddle while my images download. Eeeew. Ok . . . I hope I DON'T have to test it too! ;)

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~


Doyle D. Chastain   {K:99842} 9/12/2006
Well seen Juan . . . it's not far from the largest port in the United States . . . where 40% of all ship imports come in! Thanks for the comments!

Doyle I <~~~~~
