Your sketches are quite nice, I like quick gesture drawings -they're really hard to do well. These turned out great!

You have captured the movement of the boats and the breeze in a few simple lines - wonderful

// UPDATES //
So this is where I went to walk about -- it came out to be slow 10 km walk in 3,5 hours. How come I walk and talk that much instead of sketching
"... excuse me, could you please take a photo of me and my wife. I'd LOVE to be one holiday picture with here together!" -- "Yes, sure ..."
detailed
As I sat down in inch below the upper right corner of the route, I came to talk with a film-producer, who just set there and watched the German Champion Champions on sailing on the other shore of the Außenalster. He asked me if I would be into sailing, and if I'd know, that there would be the "crème de la crème" [European, World and Olympic Champions] competing ... no, but thank you ... and we kept talking ... I didn't know, why I was driven to WALK all the way downtown to just stop in THIS peculiar place first to start sketching --- the only wooden planks four meters wide to sit next to him at the curly waterside. Well I was about to get to know: "So do you earn your livings with this? You should do storyboarding ... " so that's why a magic hand tugged me here
.. details .. on request, as there have been so many obstacles, that stood in between this meeting and me
... more sailing boats ...
.. more than just sailing boats ...
.. crappy drawings from four different places along the road: University Library / Arts Department [I didn't know it would be in there, but I was could), fastfood restaurant, Japanese Garden at "Planten un Bloomen" (a huge and beautiful park) ... everything moved so fast this super-sunny day
Thank-you-post .. see here

jaz999 - thank you, I can agree on you saying "they're really hard to do well"
alissa -- thank you, too. Yes the breeze was wonderful. The "Binnenalster" is know for gusty or better say "fast changin winds" in direction and strength.
marcello --- such nice words from you again! It was a poetical moment, indeed
Marty ----
thank you Marty-San! [tin-toon ?? hm,....]
gustavo ----- you are getting there? Thank you. You are there

I really love the style. What size were you drawing these at, cause they look TINY. And what kind of pen did you use, because I love that line?

gustavo : it was kind of strange. I really felt in and out of the world.
--
Donal : they where tiny about one or one and a half inch "tall". I used a Pilot G-Tec-C4. It has a 0.4 mm nib. And is my favorite one, to sketch on very hard and white/silky sketchbookpages. Thanks for the compliment.
--
Olga / olkazavr : .. see, that's why I loved to draw them too: I -- MISS -- THE -- OCEAN !!!
--
Kai / klecks : thank you, waiting to see some new sketches on your newly "invented" blog
Overall, so good to so see so many Crawlers around
Germany this time!!
