Catching the rosette at one of the early minor stations, the sea was still relatively calm.

Many of the more incredible sights from this trip weren't possible to capture in a photograph. The motion of the boat, looking up and seeing the moon and stars swinging overhead, the color of the ocean-especially the swirling mixture of blues at night when the lights were shining down on the cable when the rosette was in the water. Maybe I'll come up with better ways to take pictures during my future cruises.
