Description When I was in high school, I studied Homer, who recounted the voyage of Odysseus across the 'wine-dark sea.' Presumably he was referring to the Aegean Sea. In 2011, I finally took my own voyage across the Aegean Sea. I wouldn't describe the water as having the color of wine, but with a black and white photograph you can imagine any color you please. I took this photograph before dawn, before the ship's crew had cleaned up the wine glasses left from the night before. What romantic tale could they tell? Notice the tiny vessel on the horizon, just to the left of the ship's wake.
