Wonderful colours. The sky just complements the mood set by the boat, best wishes, Fai

Fai, thank you very much! A pity, we can't see the very strong wind, which nearly tore me off. It looked as if the boat looked for safety in the harbour. My best regards, May

Pascal, merci pour visiter cet'image. C'était à la côte Nord d'Aberdeenshire, le vent soufflait tellement que je pouvait presque pas ouvrir la porte de la voiture. Ce bâteau a sûrement vue beaucoup des orages. Amitiés, May

Hello, May! The clouds look ominous and the colors on the boat are beautiful. The wind might not be in the photo, but the feeling of cold is, and that alone makes me want to stay in the harbor! :)

Thanks Ryan! Did you notice that "Audacious" is its new name. Its old name "Endurance" has nearly washed off. I found this fact funny, regarding its battered and rusty body. I guess its used for fishing and surely it has seen many storms out on the sea.

Greetings, May

I didn't see "Endurance" at first, thanks for pointing it out. It seems the name did not endure as long as the boat. :)

Ryan, the changement of the name Endurance to Audacious might mean anything! :) It sure looks risky to travel on it in stormy weather, but maybe I am mistaken and seamen are audacious enough to work on it. I admire those people in any case, me having seen strong winds on the sea from the safe land, but never yet experienced any storm on water. May

I am out of Barcelona, in a small village of Lleida, where my mother was born. A few days ago I took this photo for you.

Thank you very much for your words. I am considering very seriously to register in Architecture. The Mathematics and the Mathematical Logic are still I liking it. They are entertained, so much as an logic puzzle. You are not the only person who says it to me. All my family and my "girlfriend" have insisted on it.

By the way, this picture is wonderful. Colors annd stormy atmosphere are in perfect harmony according to weathear. Great capture.

Thank you so much, Blai!

I am glad that you consider studying architecture. It's true, mathematics and geometry are fascinating subjects. Of course history and archaeology are more than interesting as well and I think all three have something in common, they all have to do with people, their life and circumstances. I am sure you will choose the subject which suits you and anyway, (we) are learning all through life, so whatever you start with, your talent will enable you to do additional studies and you will improve your knowledge and connect the different subjects.

Best wishes, May
