Hi Nelson. A lovely composition with stunning colours. The human figures are dwarfed by the cliffs and the expanse of sand. Imposing place rendered even more impressive by a well chosen PoV. Reagards. Klaudio.

Hi Nelson,
A well composed image with good lighting and colours. The inclusion of the people is such an important part to its effective result. They provide definition to the size of the cliffs and the vast expanse of beach. Coming from Africa myself, and knowing the problomatic past of Angola, I'm really taken back by the beauty and tranquility that you've captured. Well done.
Cheers Grant

Hi Nelson,
Knowing the history of this land in your photograph I think makes this meditative, peaceful, beautiful joy even more meaningful. Beautiful water. I love the reflection of the cliffs on the surf. I wish I could see the end of the cliff on the left edge of the image. Beautiful .. thanks for sharing it.
take care,
John

Hello Nelson,
Beautiful, peaceful beach and photo. And yes, the picture indeed speaks for itself, even for those who have the slightest knowledge of the history of the place you live.
Best regards

Como dizia Agostinho Neto, às nossas praias havemos de voltar! É sinceramente, o que eu espero um dia poder fazer.
Passei horas e noite intermináveis em Cabo Ledo à pesca. Tenho slides lindíssimos dessas praias. Ainda me lembro das lagostas e dos linguados de Cabo Ledo. Como é que podia esquecer essas coisas. Obrigado por me fazeres lembrar de tudo isso.
António
PS. Só uma pequena observação Cabo Ledo não fica no Bengo mas sim no Cuanza Norte, já que está localizado ao sul do Rio Cuanza.

Hi Nelson,
A great capture from this shore!
I like so much the beauty of the scene displayed here, with the walking people enjoying the moment.
Very impressed by the greens seen on the top of the hills, it makes a great contrast against the intense blue sky.
I like so much this well balanced composition.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

Olá Nélson! mais uma foto linda... Aquela família lá ao fundo, tornam esta foto realmente especial. Acho apenas que devias tê-los deixado aproximarem-se mais... mas depois também já não podias mostrar tanto a praia.
Quando vi a foto até pensei que seria de uma praia de Portugal, mas não, é em Angola. Não sei porquê mas imaginava as praias de África diferentes, sem falésias, com palmeiras e areia de cor diferente... estou a ver que estava enganada.
Parabéns e obrigada por partilhares.
