Beautiful photographs. I love the witty flotilla of geese. The afternoon's weather made things quite atmospheric but I could see it also being a bit dicey for photographers.

One tall ship absent from the City's backgrounder was the Peacemaker, which moored at the easternmost end of Pier 8. Turns out the vessel is owned by The Twelve Tribes.

Could the Twelve Tribes be joining Peter Rigo?
