Sun and Sea

Andrew invited me to go down to the port and photograph the container ship Keta arriving.  I have only seen the port from one side but when you go to the other side you can see there are several wharfs and a variety of ships that aren't visible from the  road.  I put the extra in because I like the wider context and the yellow pilot boat.  I think to show the size of the Keta I had to zoom in and show how much bigger than the tugs it is.  There is more to learn about this boat photography.    

Six Months In A Leaky Boat                          Split Enz

When I was a young boy
I wanted to sail around the world
That's the life for me
Living on the sea
Spirit of a sailor
Circumnavigates the globe
The lust of a pioneer
Will acknowledge no frontier

I remember you by, thunderclap in the sky
Lightning flash, tempers flare
'Round the horn if you dare
I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Lucky just to keep afloat

Aotearoa
Rugged individual
Glisten like a pearl
At the bottom of the world
The tyranny of distance
Didn't stop the cavalier
So why should it stop me
I'll conquer and stay free

Ah, c'mon all you lads
Let's forget and forgive
There's a world to explore
Tales to tell back on shore . . .
