Ruby Tuesday / Tall Ship Parade at Dana Point Harbor, California

I have all ready posted a few of the tall ships this past weekend. Now I am posting the beautiful "reds." These gorgeous sails just made an emotional wreck out of me. It was such a beautiful sight out on the water with the most majestic sunset ever! The color of the sky got more and more intense as the sun dropped lower and lower. And, I have more tall ships to post in the next few days. Each ship deserves to be seen by as many as possible...they are just that beautiful.

The second photo shows some of the smoke from the simulated "cannon battle" that had taken place before us!

The last photos show the amazing sky and silhouettes of the crowd as the event was coming to an end.

Mellow Yellow Monday / Tall Ship Festival & Parade

This empty boat caught my eye as I was walking around the harbor at Dana Point, California. The poster for the Tall Ship Festival was adjacent to the boat on the walkway and the colorful flags were such a welcome to the event. We were so amazed with the tall ship parade...beautiful sunset, beautiful light for capturing the beauty of the magnificent ships on the ocean waters!

Color Carnival #19 / Paddle Surfers and Tall Ships

These paddle surfers were sharing the harbor with some mighty tall ships! Eventually, they had to move to allow the ships plenty of room to navigate out to the open ocean...These ships and many others participated in a Tall Ship parade at sunset...

A blurry tall ship leaves the harbor for the open ocean in preparation for the parade of tall ships at sunset. It raises its sails once it is outside the breakwaters.

Scenic Sunday # 61 / Tall Ship Parade/ Dana Point Harbor, California

A Tall Ship Festival is going on this weekend at Dana Point Harbor in southern California. My husband and I went down to the harbor last night, September 11, to see the arrival of the tall ships to the harbor. The sunset parade of the ships was spectacular!
You can see billowing smoke from the cannon battles!

An incredible sunset illuminated the sails of these boats in a splendid fashion...I am posting only a few tonight...more will follow on other memes.
