PhotoFeed Contest - Cityscape - Penzance Visitor.
Hi everyone!
Back with a post featuring a unique vessel.
This time Galeón Andalucía (sister ship of Nao Santa Maria) stopped of in Penzance due to high winds and rough seas en route to Liverpool as part of its tour of the UK.
She was present during Sail25 along with the BAP Union and hundreds of other vessels forming a flotilla through the city of Aberdeen.
Now she is back on the final stages of her tour. Walking along the prom to the harbour, the masts stuck out against the rooftops.
¡Hola a todos!
De vuelta con una publicación sobre un barco único.
En esta ocasión, el Galeón Andalucía hizo escala en Penzance debido a los fuertes vientos y el mar agitado durante su ruta a Liverpool, como parte de su gira por el Reino Unido.
Estuvo presente durante Sail25 junto con cientos de otras embarcaciones que formaban una flotilla por la ciudad de Aberdeen.
Ahora regresa a la recta final de su recorrido. Caminando por el paseo marítimo hacia el puerto, los mástiles sobresalían contra los tejados.
From the air, people walking around her and passing cars give a sense the scale.
From the ground, I got to see the details up close and personal. I never realised the true scale of this impressive replica before.
The amount of sailors required to operate such a vessel is surprising.
The weather was against me that day- gusts were high at over 30mph. Couple that with stormy clouds, it was quickly moving north east from Lands End so I ducked in and out of rain showers as they passed over!
To my delight, the sun even showed itself- albeit briefly so I quickly launched the drone again to take advantage of the better light. Forgive me for some of the views looking almost identical!
Desde el aire, la gente que caminaba a su alrededor y los coches que pasaban daban una idea de su escala.
Desde tierra, pude ver los detalles de cerca. Nunca antes me había dado cuenta de la verdadera escala de esta impresionante réplica.
La cantidad de marineros necesarios para operar una embarcación así es sorprendente.
El tiempo me jugó en contra ese día: ráfagas de viento de más de 48 km/h. A eso se suman las nubes tormentosas, y se movía rápidamente al noreste desde Lands End, así que tuve que esquivar los chaparrones a medida que pasaban.
Para mi deleite, incluso salió el sol, aunque brevemente, así que volví a poner en marcha el dron rápidamente para aprovechar la mejor luz. ¡Disculpen si algunas vistas parecen casi idénticas!
This last shot is a view of the town from the south. The foreground shows some ongoing ground work to improve a local park. Just behind it near the white fencing is a residential development.
Esta última toma muestra una vista del pueblo desde el sur. En primer plano se ven las obras de mejora de un parque local. Justo detrás, cerca de la cerca blanca, hay una urbanización.
Until the next time!
¡Hasta la próxima!
