From flying cranes to flying ships, I have ventured outside my comfort zone and chased images of the Tall Ships in Duluth this summer. My father was a sailor and I think somewhere in my childhood I must have contracted the sailing bug. I could be perfectly happy in a lawnchair, with Lake Superior waves lapping over my bare feet, watching the ships enter the harbor with the wind in my hair. The beauty of billowing sails and fresh breezes ignites my soul and sends me dreaming into another world. We were very fortunate to be able to take a daysail on The Pride of Baltimore after the Tall Ship Festival was over. This image was taken on the morning of the Parade of Sails during the Festival, see my shutterbug website for other images of these beautiful ships or just tune in and i will enter them on this website as well. Bye for now, Marge
