Challenge 874: All at sea
I spent last weekend in my favourite French town of La Rochelle, visiting the Maritime Museum while I was there. High up in one of the galleries I found this small sailboat suspended, mimicking its behaviour in rough sea. The sailor here has, curiously, a head and hands made from chicken wire. Can you put this small craft in a more appropriate location? High res is here.  |

I find myself completely at a loss as to what to do with this except follow the brief ..... which feels somehow too easy.  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Brian thought he should get some practice on the Circumnavigation simulator before tackling the real thing.  _________________  |

Re: Challenge 874: All at sea
I'm right out of ideas on this one. Here's some steam punky stuff using hull and sail. I'll leave Gordon to decide whether it gets a certificate of airworthiness.

David, I would be more than happy to recommend someone else to test fly it   _________________ If at first you don't succeed then skydiving is not for you. |

Oh Gordon! So little faith ......... 
BTW I love the idea of rehearsing circumnavigation. That's right off the wall. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Some tricky sailing here. My own photo from Venice and of the man. _________________ Perfect confidence is granted to the less talented as a consolation prize. |

Re: Challenge 874: All at sea
Wow! Coming fast and furious this week. And all of them good. Interesting to see the different positioning of boat and navigator. I think we can guess who knows the basics of sailing and who doesn't. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Thanks vibeke, I live very close to this lake and it frequently provides some great sunsets.
