The Tall Ships have sailed & Sail Boston 2009 has wrapped up, but they provided some spectacular photo ops for Boston's photographers. Here are some of our favorites:

We don’t need to tell you that the tall ships are here. Bostonist readers have been tagging lots of great photos of the ships on Flickr, and we’re planning on heading to the waterfront later on today to check them out for ourselves. There are lots of reasons to go see the tall ships. Maybe you’re a history nut. Maybe you’re looking for an excuse to talk like an old-time sailor. Maybe you just like all things wind-powered. Maybe you’re looking for a new backdrop for your Facebook profile picture. Or maybe you’re just looking for something free to do this weekend. Whatever your reason, go. The tall ships are just plain cool.
