My creation of a longboat aided by AI

I am thrilled by the Vikings’ remarkable ability to navigate without the aid of modern technology. They didn’t even have watches!

The Vikings relied solely on the sun, the moon, the stars, and the wind for navigation. They honed their skills by listening to sounds, observing the shapes of clouds, feeling the wind on their skin, and scanning the horizon during sea voyages.

In situations where land was obscured by fog or distance, they utilized other sensory cues such as scents or the presence of birds to guide them.

Their navigation techniques were truly unmatched! Moreover, they accomplished astonishing feats like sailing 5000 km across the North Atlantic in their open boats. It’s truly awe-inspiring!

Note

Lately, I have been fascinated by Vikings and their sailing. It inspired me to create an image of a longboat navigating through rough seas with the majestic mountains of Lofoten in the background. I’m not very good at painting, so I have teamed up with AI 🎁😊
