19 mins
The world of competitive yacht racing is fast, exciting, and glamorous. From America's Cup to the Olympics to billionaires racing across exotic seas it is a world also dominated by men. Gracing covers of yachting magazines the world over images of these sailboats and their crews are captured by a small but elite group of yachting photographers - a profession also dominated by men. But in the early 80's all that changed when a young girl from Canada, Sharon Green, entered the fray. Ever since Green has established herself as one of the finest yacht photographers of her generation, perfecting helicopter aerial photography capturing incredible images of boats in her favorite condition - Fresh to Frightening.
