Hi Antonio,

Well seen and well shot. As you say, no words required. Nice colours and the way they come out of the horizon has been superbly shot. Nice use of the branches to "frame" the picture.

Overall, great atmosphere! Congrats!

Cheers,
Guru

Very beautiful, Antonio, apart from the good light management I also like your composition with the tree occupying almost half of the frame and a diagonal as a border between the two parts. A romantic feel well conveyed, compliments.

Cheers
Alexander

Olá, Antônio.
Concordo com sua introdução: sem palavras. Não é necessário dizer nada para esta beleza que se mostra para nós. Linda tomada, as cores estão espetaculares. Um abraço, Consuelo

Antonio,
What a great sunset! The colors are fantastic with nice lighting and detail. Your composition is fine placing the trees in the foreground and showing the sunset through them. The creek leads the eye through the shot and provides a nice reflection of the colored sky.
TFS,
Asa

Olá António,
Gosto da gradação da cor do azul até ao laranja, com os ramos das árvores espraiando-se pelo céu.
O canto superior direito tem umas manchinhas meio esquisitas; nuvens ou efeito do processamento?
Um abraço,
F

Magnífica fotografia aqui. Os tons, com linda variação, emoldurado pela bela árvore, enfim, uma excelente fotografia em todos os aspectos.

Hello Antonio!

I very like this way of thinkin' about a composition. Excellent light, interesting foreground in the corner and amazing landscape in the background. Nice reflections in the water, beautiful place, I can almost feel stings of mosquitos he he.

Regards
Jacek

Hello Antonio,
Very screne landscape as the late day sun gently sets on the lush green delta. The late day blue compliments the gold of the sunset as the calm stream moves slowly toward the distant sea.
Regards, Tom

Awesome, I like the workshop too, you're looking very comfortable there. The colour in this is fantastic with great silhouetting from the trees up front. The thin sliver of water really stands out with the reflection of that sun. It's very warm looking, and beautiful.

Thanks, John

Olá Antonio,

e nem precisa de palavras, não é? O efeito degradê do céu está muito bonito. As silhuetas da árvore foi uma adição valiosa e a luminosidade sobre o mato também está na dosagem certa. Enfim, apenas precisamos apreciá-la. Parabéns!
Abraço,
Carlos

Olá António,
bella imagen, muy bien captada en un buen encuadre, con el árbol en primer plano y un magnífico paisaje africano bajo la luz del atardecer y unos colores simplemente preciosos.
Me gusta esa luz y esos colores, dan una gran belleza a la composición.
Es una escena relajante y mágica, un momento inolvidable.
Un abrazo,
Josep

hi antonio,

You have avoided falling into the "cliché", hiding the sun behind the branchs, Excellent composition and perfect moment to capture such place and such scene.

regards

dvlazar (6488) 2007-12-01 23:17

A lovely sunset - what i like most is the gradual shift through the colours from orange, yellow and blues.
Not too long to go until I get to experience something like this perhaps!

Hi Antonio

A marvellous sunset, with attractive, warm colours, & good graphism & silhouettes. TFS!

Hi Antonio,
Ah, seeing the ws i see you are a very romantic person ;-)
But glad you posted this one, the light here is wonderful, with superb detail in the foreground which is not easy to expose. that gradient in the sky is to good to be true. From deep blue to warm yellow...amazing.
Really good work here...
Regards, Henk

Antonio,

I love the color .. the greens that you have not quite let go to shadow ... combined with the oranges really communicate a feeling of heat .. I love the thick use of the foreground branches .. it really grounds that vast empty place and adds depth .. vast and empty infinity .. my kind of thing. Very nice.

take care,

John

Hi Antonio,

I've never been to Africa but I would travel a long way to see a sunset like this one. The colours are soft and warm, the light is perfect and the pov is spot on. It's a very fine, romantic capture and well seen.

Regards

Stephen
