Late one afternoon we heard booms and knew the tall ships were "battling" on Lake Washington. We put our dinner in containers and drove down to the lake in time to watch the battle. The ships then came past us on their way back to the dock at Carillon Point.
Water craft of all types joined the tall ships on the lake.
If you look closely, you can see people on the rigging on the left. They've taken up the sails. You can also make out passengers on the boat.

I tried to capture the sun in the middle of the sculpture
