THE FIRST LAND — (after weeks, a coast:1.2) a merchant captain gone privateer — in rolled sleeves and a leather belt of tools, at the rail — splicing a line with a marlinspike as a Spanish Main anchorage comes into view. a following wind and long swell clearing; a sky full of torn cloud after a blow wide; salt-bitten and free wistful for a shore never seen. (Bow-on composition, deck in the foreground, land a blue band ahead). a 35mm at f/2.8 in salt spray, spray breaking into the near frame. BREAK rigging cutting the frame diagonally the rail and foresail; boards silvered by salt, scuppers running pink with water the wet deck; barnacles furring the hull, flying fish skipping the swell, gulls wheeling and screaming land birds arriving first. another sail closing on the horizon the coast and its hills. a tally of days scratched in a beam, a name carved under the rail, a lucky coin sewn into a hem, a knife handle re-wrapped in twine, a dog-eared Bible with the pages cut BREAK light on a wet cutlass, the shimmer of a school of fish, firelight on a ship's bell the whole bright sea. (ship landfall, hope, maritime painting:1.2) tall-ship concept art, spray and detail.
