EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the magnificent Tenacious, the largest wooden ship currently in operation, gracefully sails into Sydney Harbour. The image captures the awe-inspiring moment when this majestic vessel completes its epic nine-month journey from Britain to Australia. With a staggering distance of 18,000 miles (29,000 kms) covered during its voyage, Tenacious stands as a testament to human determination and maritime excellence. As the sun sets on July 27th, 2016, Tenacious glides through the tranquil waters of Sydney Harbour with sheer elegance. Its towering masts and billowing sails create an enchanting silhouette against the backdrop of a vibrant sky. This photograph by Peter Parks perfectly encapsulates both the grandeur of this historic tall ship and the serenity that comes with sailing upon open seas. The sight of Tenacious evokes feelings of adventure and nostalgia for a time when such vessels ruled vast oceans. Aboard this remarkable ship are stories waiting to be told – tales of camaraderie among sailors who have braved treacherous waves together. Peter Parks skillfully captures this momentous occasion from his unique perspective as he immortalizes Tenacious' arrival in Australia's iconic harbour. His lens beautifully portrays not just a ship but also an embodiment of resilience and triumph over adversity. This print is more than just an image; it is a visual representation of human ambition conquering vast distances across boundless waters. It serves as a reminder that dreams can indeed become reality if we dare to
