A seagull posing in the Bay of Silence

Un gabbiano in posa in Baia del Silenzio

A seagull posing in the Bay of Silence.
Last summer (actually, even the one before) I took several photos in the Bay of Silence with the Gopro and the Dome (that device that looks like a bubble that allows photos half in and half out of the water) and, while I was swimming to go a little towards the Ex Annunziata I photographed this beautiful seagull that was blissfully sitting on one of the boats moored in the bay.

When the sea is rough while sailing

Quando il mare è agitato in navigazione

When the sea is rough while sailing.
Those who decide to take a cruise must always take into account that the ship is on the sea and the weather is always unpredictable.
It doesn't matter if you are in the immense Ocean or in the more reassuring Adriatic Sea: when nature decides to raise the wind and the waves start to increase, the ship begins to rock.
No problem though: modern ships are so large (and have stabilization systems) that the wave motion makes them move very little compared to the past! but they do move a little!
What to do? Don't think about it too much and let yourself be lulled by the movement!

I took these photos last year from my ex Costa Firenze.
