 Bear_music and I had a lovely early evening outing on a friend's sailboat as we helped him return it to its mooring after Tropical Storm Irene had passed. Robert (Bear) is at the helm here.

FWIW: That was my intention for this pic. I kinda hoped it would be evaluated without any face recognition factors coming into play, so I'm pleased.. However, from the comments I know at least one person, Garry, recognized Robert.

Great shot, I like how you composed this, and the star burst and flare is complimentary smack bang in the middle.

I like the composition, but I think this would have been stronger if the sun wasn't so centered. I think if the sun was a bit more to the top and right (not necessarily ROT), the image would be better balanced. JMHO.

Some spray served with your flare? Love it.
