A bit of a rare sight, this one... Portland Harbour in Dorset, South of England - on a clear and flat calm evening! (It's usually been blowing a right old "hooly" whenever I have been there!) Poto taken from on board c.s. Wave Sentinel in June, 2005 Unfortunately, I never thought to keep the original high resolution image file of this photo, when I reduced it for uploading to one of the previous versions of ArtFreaks.com, so this particular image is not available in the Print Program on my portfolio at ArtWanted.com
