Barcolana

(Edited)

This is my entry for #monomad challenge by @monochromes.

Barcolana has won, in 2019, the Guinness World Record of the greater regatta! It is an event placed in Trieste (Italy) every year, in October.

Here my pictures of this event, in 2012.

A sea of boats view from the top pf hill of Carso plateau.

Every people can partecipate: professional team and not professional.

A lot of joy and participation.
Many stands, many people and, one of the evening, a lot of rain, a sea in front of me and a sea from the sky.

There are huge lights to watch boats sailing in front of 'Molo Audace', creating a lot of special effect.

I hope @monomad forgive me if I post this pic in color! But it in this case, it has more sense with color ;-)

Pics taken with a completely wet Nikon D800.
October 2012.
