Remembering Stories of Adventure

Sometimes it's a great distraction, looking back through our photos,

remembering that day, and imagining just what twists we could put

on them, with a bit of imagination. (many thanks for taking a look,

Gail)

Your text with photo jogged some boat memories for me.  In fact, they are flooding in, so pretty effective posting!  Every memory of a boat I've been on -- canoes, kayaks, glass bottom boats (in the Red Sea), ferries, motor boats (going out to water ski), row boats on lazy afternoons in Indiana -- there's something about being on the water.  You might consider writing an illustrated book with text and photos.  

Photos for us photographers are our memories. Thanks for sharing and Good Easter. Best regards from Italy, Antonio

You have such good ideas Donna. Had really thought of it. But boats sure make the 'heart and soul want to waunder'.  glad you liked the image. Kind regards, GAil

You sure nailed it Antonio....they sure are our memories..and often the most memorable.  Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  Most sincerely, Gail

Hi Gail,

Photograph is the pages of our memories. You just turn them and the colorful moments in front of you. Nice title and the presentation. Like it.
All the best to you. Warm Regards.

Thankyou for those kind remarks, and words re our love of Photography.  talke soon,Gail

Ah those lazy days days of summer!

There seems to be some very subtle treatment of this image Gail. Good effect that suits the image.

All my best,   Bill

Many elements so fitting to each other! Sometimes I say that the most valuable photos are the so called souvenir photos!

Warm regards Gail!

So much so far been said here and this fine capture do deserve it all, the lighting is superb and so the clarity and details, indeed the image print the feelings of adventure and so well connecting with its title.

Thank you my friend for sharing it and wishing you all of the best.

A beautfiul shot with very nice lighting and details, Gail!

Very nicely done image and a beautiful boat.  Perhaps this image elicits memories of adventures past for you but I see adventures to be experienced too.  Sail on!

Wonderful rememberence, Gail...very nice image too...beautifully composed with the verticle lines created by the ropes and diagonal placement of the boat... the boat created an illusion of speed to justify your adventure...my best

Agree Pierre opinion,I like also crop you did here,best regards.

Due to pressing Family matters I am unable to respond to your kind remarks at this time. Please be assured that as soon as I can, I will catch up with my replies....most grateful, Gail

Gail,

  This a beautiful image with wonderful details & I am sure some wonderful days of enjoyment.  Take care, Patsy

Unfortunately it is not MY BOAT...this is an image from my Wooden Boat Folder that I reworked because I love it and have always wanted to.  Perhaps one day I shall be so fortunate. thanks so much for your kind critique Patsy, best regards, GAil

Good eye Bill....thanks so much for those very kind words of critique, talk soon, Gail

I can see why this photograph would evoke some very meaningful memories.  The character of this lovely vessel is clearly evident.  Who wouldn't want to sail on her?

My best,

michael

No critique needed, except 7+. Excellent and well presented work. I like those kind floating framing, especially with this presentation...

Ineed maybe in serach of the fountain of youth I could use a drink from that one.  I see you have kept your spirit up as the adventure begins anew... Keep the faith keep posting and sharing and most of all thanks for being my mate... Arrrrrr... MJ

A great artful composition and framing , with amazing handle of dynamic range and , at the same time, a nice contrast. Colors are well treated and masterful. I think it is an HDR work, isnt it? Bravo for this wonderful shot.

Hamid.

many thanks for that enthusiastic critique, truly appreciated, with my kindest regards, Gail

Ehhh Matey and an equally 'ARRHHHHH' to you also. Amidst doing a Family Presentaton Board (for Service), at least attempting, I've been trying to work on the odd photo...this one is from my Wooden Boat Show Folder.  I've always loved this shot of this boat, reminds me of  song 'Sail Away'....guess we'd all like to do that when on land we feel in the middle of a bit of a 'storm'...more so a swirling one of Activity of things that must be done, when the body is 'saying----just drop !'.

Will certainly have to concentrate on my photos and the coming Spring shots to keep my mind busy, actually will probably be more in tune with my Mom while I work on my 'flowers and such'. thanks for dropping by and for your words of encouragement. talk again soon, Gail
