Good shot! Nice timing in it, too.

Great shot. The sailboats add drama to what would have been a straight up, but nevertheless well done, doc shot. Were the sailboats jockeying for the starting line at this point? The question in my mind is raised by the notion that the lifeboat looks like it was going to overtake those sailboats quickly. What happened next? I trust that you also were on a vessel. Nice job in getting a sharp shot with a 500mm lens in what are clearly choppy seas and a stiff breeze.

I love this image, it tells me a story, which may not be close to the truth, but it tells a story nonetheless which fascinates me.
