Red sky at night, Shepard's delight. Red sky in the morning... poems usually rhyme, but on this occasion they don't because shepherd is initially spelt wrong.
Awesome.

Great morning sky, we'd never get that at 7, it's almost full light already by that time, maybe at 5:30.
And wow was the sea pissed off in those other pictures!
Once we (me dad and uncle) made the mistake of leaving the harbor on a 6m sails only boat with a weather like that and 50 MPH wind that was blowing from the land.
First attempt at turning we were literally thrown in the air. And then in the water. :P
Boat was turned on the side and i had to swim for like an hour and then some to make something like 3/4 of a mile, trying to get help.
Lucky me i was spotted by some divers going out on a small motorboat, they picked me up and dragged the boat to the shore.
BTW i wish many bad things to the guys on the yacht that passed by the boat shortly after the incident and didn't stop.

Yes, a semi -storm, not as good as the March ones with the high tides though, and definitely a day for staying ashore although it was bitterly cold--first flakes of snow this year.

Having a wee problem with photobucket just now - can see the first page of thumbs but only text on the next page and also can only see text on my album page. It,s happening on the c2d and amd machines, cant figure out what it is atm . Thought it was the firewall but no differance after switching it off. Flikr thumbs appear to be ok.

Hope this is the right pic.


Nope : IMG won't paste in, well back to the drawing board .



not just working right yet but at least I can get pics pasted now, although still can,t see thums in PB.
