Sommario/riassunto

Sailing yachts under full sail, motorboats with huge bow waves, seemingly impossible angles - even before you factor in the spray-



filled atmosphere, blinding sunlight and fast-moving targets, photography at sea is a very tricky proposition. This full colour book from a leading yachting photographer covers all the elements and more.
