Hi Ovidiu
The pattern of the pavement is absolutely unique and beautifully designed as strong foregound element and superbly leads into the grand structures with good human presence. Great shot and full of dynamism with superb quality. Very well done.

Hi Marina
Good light in the wonderous sky makes this one works, your vision of this fine palm grove is always interesting and thoughtful. The converging lines of all those trees and the path making a simple but effective image. Much as I admire your work, the layout really work compositionally, attention is equally well distributed within the frame as they rightly deserve. The plantation is a place for serene outing for sure and how wonderful it must be to wander through those beautiful tropical trees.Excellent control of exposure, rich colors and stunning contrast. A very well taken shot, I enjoy the view very much :))
Congrats, TFS
Warm regards

Hi Will
A unique rustic old dwelling, the pov extends the depth into the far end and beyond with the path leads and you are blessed by such a brilliant light. The child and the laundry provide the extra visual interest off setting nicely by the beautiful greenery and deep blue sky. Enjoy your useful notes, thks. Great shot indeed, TFS
Best regards

Hello John,
I would have enjoyed this photo in any case but might have wondered about the strange way you cropped it on the right side...
Now, I have seen the workshop and fully understand why you get annoyed, because that line of trees and that extra part of the fence mean a lot to the balance of the composition and the feeling of depth. As for the rest of the picture it shows a beautiful rural view with a very well handled light and a carefully processed sky .
Since I have been away for a few weeks i may have missed some information, but where has it been announced that the allowed size of photos has been increased? Everyone seems to know about it but I can't find it.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Miguel,
What a catch! A 10 metres long trout. That looks like an unusual and quite interesting monument, judging from your description. It has been well located by the water and you managed to include a lot of other interesting views in this composition, including the tall building that just exactly fits inside the frame.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Lisa,
He may be trying hard not to look cute, but he fails totally! With those eyes, the white paint and the red bandana he is a real charmer. A great portrait.
Kind regards,

Hello Jean Claude.
A nice photo with lots of life and colour and an interesting looking bridge. The strong diagonal makes the composition very attractive and the light is great.

Hello Wolfgang,
Despite the hustle and bustle there was still time to lean on the railings and chat with a friend. This is a nice and relaxed photo of daily life among the small scale fishermen before the EU trawlers had depleted the stocks of fish. I like this kind of photos very much.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Aleksander,
A lovely and very neat forest and a nicely curving road. The light seeping through the trees is pleasantly mild and the colours are equally mild and attractive. I like the small puddles of water and the glimpses of reflections.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Craig,
The extreme wide angle makes this yellow vehicle look quite extreme too. Whatever it may look like in a "normal" photo this splash of yellow and black makes this photo a real stunner. Maybe I am even more imprssed by the clouds. How did you manage to arrange them so nicely?
Regards,
Gert

Hello John,
This is a beautiful old bridge and you have captured it from a good angle. There is some nicely coloured moss on the stone parapet in the lower right corner.
I notice that this photo has a width of 1000 pixels, which should not be possible to upload. How did you manage that? Is there any new rule that I have missed?
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Urs,
This is a nice photo with an interesting story behind it. The light and colours are good and there are many attractive details. Maybe the composition could have been more concentrated by cropping the two persons to the right that are not really part of what is going on.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi Paul
I love this! It has an old master painting feel about it and the subject matter just seems to fit this motive so aptly. Glorious light and immaculate detail give the view a beautiful and magical atmosphere. Stunning work!


Have a good week - Brian.

Hi Aleksander
like this, it has a real sense of mystery and intrigue about it. Superb light with the vertical lines of the trees just enticing us in, and what does lie around the bend? Wonderful work!


Have a good week - Brian.
