I haven't forgot about my free ride if I ever get over there. I love sailboats so you know I like this one. Well done. Did you not get a new camera?

Yes, you had me fooled. . .Nice to see you in such a cheerful, jovial mood. Could it be the new 5D and friends? :)

Its what this type of back is called on boats because it looks like the sugar scoops you use in the kitchen. I was standing on mine at the time of taking.

Its the definately the friends on here that keep me cheerful:thumbsup: - Oh! you mean the 5D and lenses :D

This was taken with the 5D and its straight out of the camera with no levels, mods or anything, except the resize. Not used to that with the Pro 1 where the levels always needed tweaking.

Still getting used to all the bells and whistles, and switches all over the kit:confused:

Well its nearly the weekend and its going to be 23C here in the UK so its sailing again and more photos of boats:eek:

Congratulations on the new equipment Roger! I like your image and the title didn't make me leap too far to figure out what you meant. It's a lovely clean shot and I like your framing of the shapes. Nice job. :)
