Livorno Daily Photo: Up There

Wednesday, October 3, 2012

Somebody had to lift the admiral's flag on top of the mainmast of the “Amerigo Vespucci”.

A moment of rest on a top...

The top part of the mainmast, just to put things in perspective.

Taken For Granted said...: Bad enough going up the rigging in calm weather in port, but think about going up there to reef a sail during a storm with the sea pitching. Sailors had both skill and courage. Wonderful images.; October 3, 2012 at 6:44 AM
