We're still in Newport, planning to depart for Bermuda the middle of next week.
To our surprise we've had a pretty busy social schedule. Friends came to visit from California last weekend. Friends we met in Thomaston came down to Newport and introduced us to people here and as a result we've had a lot of evenings out.
Friday we got out for a sail to check on a few changes we made and for Billy Black to shoot some additional pictures. He also gave me the green light to post a few of the pictures he took in Maine. The sailing picture was obviously take in light air which was why we did another set of pictures last week in good sailing breeze.
But it does give you an idea of what she looks like under sail. The other two are just great examples of his photography. The shot to the right is from the swim platform looking forward through the cockpit. And to the left is a shot of the interior from the companionway. He takes long exposures and only shoots in the first and last hour of light in the day; the deep blue gives the pictures a lot of depth. We're expecting to see his pictures in 2-3 magazine articles to be published later this year.
