Every now and then we have a very calm sea.

I took this pic in the outer archipelago, outside of the city of Hanko in Finland. That's open sea, about 100 km worth of it, right beyond the couple islands you can see on the horizon.

You can see a flyspeck at the front and center of that photo. Here's a zoom of that:

Looks lonely, doesn't it?
