[Leica] RAINY DAY/HAZY DAY ON THE WATER

[imagist3 at mac.com (Lottermoser George)]

Never ceases to amaze me how sail boats and row boats appear to be in  
synch with their natural environment.
Power boats don't.

I have similar feelings about gliders, kites and balloons in contrast  
with powered planes, helicopters, etc.

Fond regards,
George
