Hi!
This was taken on the same day as my previous PAW, as we were heading at
breakneck speed towards Picton before the rain hit us. This was the
last photo on the roll.
It was quite an experience, trying to take photos one-handed while
holding on for dear life as the water was getting choppy and the boat
was going pretty fast. Trying to time the shots between the showers of
spray. Using a K2 which has no power-winder. I'm amazed that I
actually got the horizon straight...

As a side-note, I have just finished scanning/processing/uploading the
first slide books of both 35mm and 6x7 (200 and 40 slides
respectively). I don't want to know how long this has taken me so far,
but there's only another three books of each to go :)
Dave, I remember my first impression when I was faced with Norwegian
Landscapes. No matter how wide a lens I took, the view in the viewfinder
looked not-damn-wide-enough.
I think this is the case here. It is extremely wide, I reckon, yet it
looks very tranquil and hence the dramatic width is rather lost.
As a side note, I would have probably taken few more images with
slightly different positions of the horizon.
