FRONT: The night was calm and the waves beckoned as I sailed away on my pirate ship
Digital photo taken during the Tall Ships event at Navy Pier, Chicago, IL.
After
many delays and hours of on-and-off rain storms, the tall ships were
finally able to sail around Navy Pier. It was 9:30pm - and their final
sail of the night.
The sky was a strange mixture of plums and golden hues. I had never
seen the night resemble pages shared from a story book so much before. I
felt as if I was a character upon a ship from long ago... and happy to
have preserved some of those feelings with my camera.
I
envisioned this card to be a fun greeting for a child... but due to all
of the successful pirate movies in the past decade, I am sure that it is
appropriate for children of all ages!
