Description
my ghost ship..."At 4 a.m. the Flying Dutchman crossed our bows. A strange red light as of a phantom ship all aglow, in the midst of which light the masts, spars, and sails of a brig 200 yards distant stood out in strong relief as she came up on the port bow, where also the officer of the watch from the bridge clearly saw her, as did the quarterdeck midshipman, who was sent forward at once to the forecastle; but on arriving there was no vestige nor any sign whatever of any material ship was to be seen either near or right away to the horizon, the night being clear and the sea calm. Thirteen persons altogether saw her...At 10.45 a.m. the ordinary seaman who had this morning reported the Flying Dutchman fell from the foretopmast crosstrees on to the topgallant forecastle and was smashed to atoms."

It does look somewhat like the ghost ship, if you put your imagination to it. The red glow of the ship sailing the high sees in the sky.
Truly a remarkable sight. I've fallen in love with your pictures.

"Cantiga Vermelha" _ for Werol.
"Onde o mundo guarda o meu suspiro...
encontro um coração perdido...
e minha sombra vai sumindo quando começo a sonhar...
no lindo horizonte em arte em que nos seus olhos guardam...
Cantando e levando como o mar...
na areia os meus passos começam devagar..
sentindo o vento me contornar...
como uma simples sereia do mar...
Amor tão bonito do céu e o mar...
estrelas brilhando para me encontrar...
eu vivo de cor eu vivo de amor...
na arte um mapa de ouro como um suspirar..."
by Mai Soto
WOnderful art!

Pretty great. I think the placement of your copyright text actually spoils it a little though.

hmm i don't know from which book is the quote is from but the author is Brain Jacques
there are to books about the flying Dutchman i think its from "the castaway of the flying Dutchman"
and the other one is "the angels command"
the castaway of the flying Dutchman is about how the curse got on him
and the angels command is about a boy and a dog whom escaped of the flying Dutchman ;]
there both by the same author BTW hope this help

Yeah, they're pretty good, the only thing is that they are long, so it helps to take a break in between books, that's what I did.

A sort of a wooden breakwater. To brak the waves and prevent land erosion.
