Amazing panoramic photo. Were you out on one of the sailboats? Wish I had 6 stars to give so consider this a cyber 6.
This is just gorgeous, the white sails, the blue waters and sky, the event itself sounds interesting.
I have a friend who sails and would simply love this. Fantastic work!

Fred,
A beautiful picture of the Regatta in Brest,the sails of the yachts glowing in the sunshine under a blue sky with low flying rain clouds overhead on a sapphire blue sea. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

A very nice capture of this spectacular event. The boats are shown in fine detail and the cloudy sky is beautiful. Great colors and a perfect subject for this panoramic presentation. Best of luck in the contest.

Looks great as a panorama. Really accentuates the line of boats and their artistic arrangement of sizes and placements. Beautiful color, clarity and detail throughout. Superb sky too. Very well done and immensely appealing.

Love the long panoramic of this shot. The composition works well with the largest sailboat soaring above the horizon. The sky in the photo adds interest. Good luck on the contest.

Looks like they and you were having a good time out there on the ocean waves! Your tight composition gives us a reasonable look at the action. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

Comment from El-mundo
An amazing shot captured well in this panoramic view of this array of many different boats, some of all shapes and sizes, joined here for the annual regatta - it must be an amazing sight seeing so many of these wonderful boats all together in one place, and on such a beautiful day - the lighting is superb as either it is a dark cloudy day or towards the evening as it is not too bright which could have been difficult considering all the white in view! The clarity and long DOF are excellent, showing good detail on a number of these boats very well, and the colours of the dark blue sea, the dark green hills beyond and the cloudy lighter blue sky all work together beautifully and contrast & accentuate the many boats on the water. Excellent shot, great work :)
