Our images are courtesy of Leighton O'Connor, who has been a photographer for close to 30 years. For the last seven years Leighton has specialized in photographing large yachts and sailing regattas worldwide.

He enjoys anything that floats, helicopters, plane tickets, being a social network geek and spending time with his kids. His home, studio and boat are located in Beverly, USA which is across the harbor from the historic sailing port of Marblehead.
