Another angled view looking up at the tall ship Mircea, this one including all three of its masts as well as a lifeboat hanging off its side. The ship is backlit by vague sunlight in an overcast sky. Small banners attached to one of the rope lines flutter in the breeze.
Closeup of several coils of rope lined up along the wooden railing of the tall ship Mircea. Beyond are some blue-and-yellow banners. Blurred in the distance are soccer players on a green field, which is adjacent to the pier where the ship is docked.
An angled view looking up at one of the masts of the tall ship Mircea. Three horizontal spars cross the vertical pole, though they’re angled slightly diagonally because of the orientation of the camera. Rope lines crisscross and connect with the spars at various points, and a mesh of rigging descends from the mast’s midpoint to the deck. One line of rope carries a series of small banners. The sky is overcast with gray clouds.
View looking up at a lifeboat hanging off the side of the tall ship Mircea. We see the underside of the boat, its hull painted white with “MIRCEA” in blue letters near its prow. Below is the larger ship’s hull with a broad yellow stripe running across its portholes and a series of blue-and-white banners along its top. Behind the lifeboat, one of the ship’s masts rises into a cloudy sky.

The Romanian tall ship Mircea, docked at the Brooklyn waterfront earlier this month after participating in New York’s Parade of Sail. I’ll post more photos in the comments.

A large three-masted barque with its sails furled floats next to a pier with people milling about outside and on the deck. Its hull is white with a broad horizontal yellow stripe. In the image it’s off-center to the right, and behind it is the East River with the skyline of lower Manhattan. The sky is overcast with gray clouds.
A vertical wide-angle view onboard the deck of the tall ship Mircea, looking up towards the rear mast. The vertical pole and horizontal spars — as well as the diagonal ropes of the rigging radiating out from the central mast that’s just above and behind camera — create an image of striking geometric lines and angles. On the deck is a jumble of coiled ropes, furled sails, and covered lifeboats.
A view of New York Harbor through some of the ropes and rigging onboard the tall ship Mircea. The ropes run diagonally from upper left to lower right as well as horizontally, creating a wide mesh, with a wooden pulley in the foreground. Beyond is a wide expanse of water, with Governors Island and a very tiny Statue of Liberty on the horizon. The sky is overcast with low clouds.
A view of lower Manhattan from the deck of the tall ship Mircea. The deck has a yellow top railing with white and green sections below. A jumble of slack ropes lies on deck while other ropes extend upwards past the frame. Three long metal cylinders lean diagonally rightward and appear to connect some rope lines to the deck. Past them we can see the East River with Manhattan’s buildings on the far side, some of their tops disappearing into fog in an overcast sky.
