I’m not really a Boat Person. But a quiet pleasure of Cottage Life is sitting on the deck with a long lens catching whatever comes by, and sometimes what comes by is beautiful boats.

This sailboat had two masts and two jibs which means four sails, and was dancing back and forth across Howe Sound, its crew clearly inhabiting the wind’s intention.

On the other hand, this one’s entirely industrial, purposeful; out there to catch your dinner, not for fun. Still, its geometries charm.

Eventually, they came together and crossed the sunset’s track.

And I think to myself.. what a wonderful world.
