Drove down to the beach this morning to take pictures of the start of Cowes week from across the solent. Love how close the Isle of Wight seems for things like this.
there were lots of boats. ships. yachts. oh heavens, I'm going to have to learn some nautical terms arent i? obviously cant live this close to the docks and sea and get by with using 'floating things' on a regular basis. anyone care to impart any {easy to remember} nautical terms? the only one I can think of right now is avast. or shiver me timbers. and I'm not sure they count.
theres a lot of this tipping to steer stuff. scares the heck outa me!
and there were so many types of boats. yachts. you know, those things.
can you see that Pirate ship at the back? how cool!
you think they ever get my ships bigger than your ship bragging going on?
in which case.... this guys gonna win that one...
Its okay I dont think he's racing.
Its just the solent is a really busy shipping lane, and he has work to do. He's probably cursing these rich people in their yachts... "drat those pesky yachts' {in a dick dastardly voice}
makes for a unusual shot tho...
as they try hard to miss each other!
Everybody duck!!!
speaking of birds, oh look heres a seagull
and another one
wait a minute, theres so many seagulls about suddenly and they keep getting in my shot, like this....
whats the big attraction Mr seagull?
oh
I see.
Biscuits. and Mollie....

This wasnt the only thing we did today, but I'm thinking thats enough pictures for now, typepad says so!
