The Buoyant Fleet Of Portree
Cheerfully coloured boats greeted me at the bay at Portree, Isle of Skye, Scotland during my visit. These boats were berthed in the harbour in the evening. What was interesting was the way the boats swayed sideways along with the gentle waves in oscillation, showing for a moment their broadsides, and a moment later, their portsides in different alignment relative to one another. The colours of the boats provided a good contrast to the otherwise drab and simple grey of the surrounding waters.
