What incredible colors! do you have any idea what the phrase on the ribbon is? I couldn't find a translation for "Rerum" anywhere!

It is a work of Art. I would be hesitant to even get this one wet! :)

How delightful, Anne! :)

Thanks for your nice comments on this boat, Paul and Mary Alice! I've been looking for a translation for the word "Rerum", but I didn't find any. Maybe the spelling is wrong, but I don't know about that. I'll try to find out! Greetings to both of you, Anne

Rerum is Latin for things. Hope that helps guys. Oh! & nice shot Anne! :)

Bonjour Anne Très joli bateau et foto. Je pense comme Mary Alice, c est presque dommage de le mettre à l'eau! Un bon dimanche pour toi! Amitiés Sylvie

Thank you very much for your comment and the translation, Billy! Now I think I understand the meaning of the writing on the boat! (Must be something like: "God loves the one who loves nature"). Cheers, Anne

Vielen Dank für deinen Kommentar, Bea! Ich fand dieses Boot besonders schön und freue mich, dass es dir auch gefällt! Liebe Grüße, Anne

Merci beaucoup de ton commentaire, Sylvie! Tu as raison, ce bateau est trop joli pour le mettre à l'eau! ;) Je te souhaite aussi un bon dimanche et une bonne semaine! Amitiés, Anne

Hallo, Anne, eine hübsche Serie hast Du da gepostet, so bunt und es strahlt so viel südländisches Urlaubsflair aus. Deiner Übersetzung stimme ich überwiegend zu, ich würde aber glauben, das es heißen muss "der liebt Gott", andernfalls müsste es "Deus amat" heißen und der Satz wäre wohl auch anders herum aufgebaut, d.h das "deus amat" stünde vorne. Vielleicht liest das ja mal ein Lateinlehrer und klärt es vollends auf... ;-))

Liebe Grüße, Peter

Vielen Dank, Peter! Mit der Übersetzung hast du sicher Recht! Ich hatte kein Latein in der Schule, meine Übersetzung war nur eine Vermutung. Aber vielleicht liest es ja ein richtiger "Lateiner"! Liebe Grüße, Anne

Hi Anne, allow me to join in with well deserved praise, great shot, beautiful colors! (I wonder though what was there in the left corner, that you so neatly trimmed off) Cheers, Gabor

Thank you very much, Gabor! I'm glad you like the boat.You are right, I trimmed this photo a little bit, but it's just a piece of the sidewalk I cut off, because it didn't look good. Cheers, Anne

gabortoth, on May 7, said:

As for the sign on the boat, i believe it says: "One who loves the dominion of nature, loves God"

Coal Miner's Boy, on May 7, said:

Anne, permit me to thank Gabor for the translation. It is a beautiful saying, don't you think?

Greetings to all from northern California,

Paul

©junebug, on May 8, said:

Thanks a lot for your translation, Gabor! It really makes sense! Paul, isn't it great getting answers to many questions in the Panoramio community?! Greetings to both of you, Anne:)

Coal Miner's Boy, on May 9, said:

It's wonderful to have a community like Panoramio. It doesn't take long for someone to come up with an answer for you.

What a terrific bunch we are!

Greetings,

Paul

Very nice picture - As far as I can tell, the inscription means: who loves the nature of things, loves God.

Impressive collection you have.
