Because I love boats, I have taken tons of nautical photos. This was an easy theme for me. I decided on the first photo because it also ties in perfectly with Valentine's Day. The first two photos were both taken in Camogli, Italy last summer.

My other nautical photo, which I took a couple of weeks ago at Kewalo Basin, deserves its own page...so click continue to check it out.
Happy Valentine's Day!

Very nice shots. This theme was hard for me to come up with, but you're on the other end of the spectrum. I loved your shots!
Have a great week!

These are great shots. I love the valentine one and the one with teeth. Actually I love them all but those two are fun. I haven't been sailing in a long time either. I did a lot more of it in the 1980s and 1990s but haven't in years. Happy Valentine's Day, Carver

Great shots for the nautical theme and for valentine's day. The last one would work for Halloween too as it looks like a scary costume boat.

How appropriate for Valentine's Day :)

I love the hearts and Camogli - you should have that one framed, it is so unique!
Good job!

Hi Girasoli, awesome theme photos! I love the ones with the hearts and the one with the shark is just too cool! I wonder if it's menacing grin makes all the other boats get out of the way! He, he!
Have a great Sunday!

Thank you everyone. I really appreciate all of your comments. I never imagined when I took the first photo that there would be a nautical theme on Valentine's Day. The last photo is of some sort of tour boat.
