Pirates invade Portland
Rose Festival has begun. Translation: summer weather is on hold until after the final parade on June 10. My office was within earshot of the cannon fire of the pirate ships, VJ and I scurried down to the waterfront to snag some pictures. Here is one of mine. I call it: Impression of a Pirate Invasion. My medium of choice was Photoshop's Curves Adjustment Layer.
Apparently the Rose Festival peeps don't really consider this a Pirate Invasion but prefer the more politically correct Tall Ships Coming to the Waterfront Village!
To each her own, I suppose.

Love the pirate pictures - heard about the ships this morning on the news. JT's birthday is on the opening day of Pirates of the Carribean 2 - so we're having a pirate birthday this year! Argghh matey!
