About the shot :

Olympian, heading toward the first mark on the final day of racing at LVST 2026 on her way to win the Rolex Trophy. This image captivates the viewer's eye by showing not just the hull rising up through the sea, but the coordinated effort of all on deck to keep her moving. Originally built in 1913, it is a joy to watch a gaff rigged classic continue to ply the seas in such beautiful fashion.

Camera :

Canon EOS R5, 254mm, 320, 8.0 , 1/1000
