Rainy day. Vessel on the front has just got out of the rain. The two behind are still in it.

A lantern is a ship’s navigational light. Lantern shows red light to the left side of the vessel, green light to the right side and white light with the masthead light.

Lovely composition of all the tall ships. I guess one needs to be the leader, shining forth. Nice job, but the border seems a little off to me. (not that I have figured out yet how to get them right).
WOW. What an opportunity..and two ships either side of this beaut as well. Processing a bit over the top for my taste but remains a very strong picture and very special. I owuld be in 7th heaven to have seen this 7
That is one beautiful looking ship and there are two more sailing at it's sides! Invokes imagery of the last battle scene in Pirates of the Carribean: At Worlds End. The title has me trying to figure out what you want the audience to see. I think I see where you maybe going with this. The full frontal view of the main ship takes the shape of a lantern. Or perhaps it is also a poetic nod that this ship was the light of the seas; as in protector/defender against the darkness that was pirates and other unsavory characters....Technicals on this shot lighting/focus/details are great. Composition is interesting but I still have to wonder how this would look if you presented us with a grand sweeping scale - by that I mean a horizontal seascape that may show us a larger armada.
