An intriguing view across the bay Catherine.I like the little figures,almost in silhouette,bringing the beach to life.
The sky is a bit strange but it really does not detract from the impact of the scene.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hi Dear Cath!
If every farewell was to be so beautiful, we would always want to leave...
One consolation is waiting for your new marvels along the Atlantic coast.
Take care, and enjoy your trip...
Hugs,
Deniz

Bonsoir, mon amie Catherine,
De retour de la campagne, je reprends les manettes (enfin le clavier) !
Quelle belle photographie (l'argentique possède un je ne sais quoi de subtilité que l'on ne semble pas retrouver dans le numérique - peut-être est-ce une idée).
Une note très bien rédigée. Une photographie très bien composée (même si le ciel n'a pas retrouvé toute sa splendeur) ; mais c'est déjà extraordinaire de redonner ce superbe éclat à cette diapositive.
P.S. : Lors de ta dernière critique, tu m'as proposé (très amicalement)deux châteaux, je n'ai point vu de châteaux en atelier ?
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hi Cath. Like you, me too feel jittery while leaving the site and sight of the seas, the hills, the sunrise and the sunset. This shot had a lot of depth more to feel than to see. Your note too is laced with emotional touch. I can visualise the woman you mentioned. I could feel that she sang songs of sorrow , songs of longing. I remembered Shelly's line from "To a skylark' -- Our sweetest songs are those that tell our saddest thoughts. TFS & Regards.

Salut Catherine,
Tu nous fais faire des bonds d'un pays a l'autre! ;D Belle vue de cette immense plage, avec la moitie du village qui remonte un filet... les couleurs et contrastes sont bien rendus, surtout que c'est un scan.
Intéressant
Bon voyage au Maroc, alors!

Amazing shot, Catherine, and its impact is much stronger when one also considers the note that goes with it, a perfect TE contribution! A shot to explore, to feel... to dream... Great work, really.
Cheers

Bonjour Catherine,
To tell you the truth, this is one of the best beach photos I have seen. The way it is composed, the sharpness and the amopunt of sharp details are impressive. The thinning out of the wave's foams, the tones and colors are just superb.
Amities. Salvator.

Hello Catherine,
A superb picture with a very special atmosphere, due to the very saturated colours. A lot of interesting activities going on at the beach.
Regards,
Gert

Ciao Catherine!
che immagine commovente, penso a quando l'oceano si presentava davanti a quei poveretti trascinati via come schiavi, verso chissà quali dolori.
Sono cose che fanno rabbrividire.
Qui nella tua foto il cielo è scuro, severo, triste.
Ma il lavoro dei pescatori continua sempre
Ciao!
Livia

Salut Catherine,
Une vue superbe, très bien composée et avec des couleurs et contraste très attirantes. La différence de la lumière ensoleillée du FG fais un beau contraste. La qualité de la digitalisation et PP me parais très bonne; les seules choses qui sont moins bien sont ces zones plus foncées et le ciel, mais ça ne nuit pas beaucoup le grand impact visuel de la photo.
Je te souhaite une bonne voyage pour le Maroc, un pays que j'aime beaucoup pour tous les raisons.
Amicalement, José.

A bright foreground set against a dark sky--a sure ingredient for photographic success, if you use it well. And indeed you used it beautifully, Catherine, showing us ordinary daily activity in a wondrous setting. The colors fit together perfectly. It's true that the problems with the sky detract a bit, but I have no helpful suggestions. Certain kinds of slides just don't scan well. Fortunately, that's not the part of the image where the eye is led. Regards, Ken.

Salut,
Sur ces plages africaines, on voit des choses extraordinaires mais c'est difficile de les capter aussi bien que dans cette photo!
Merci.

Hey Catherine! That's not bad what you are going to do, or actually are doing right now! When I see this coastline, I would LOVE to follow you.
This is a wonderful photo of a very rugged coastline that dwarfes the people who are on the beach.
I hope you'll have a wonderful time!

Bonjour Catherine,
The appearance of the ocean is like a painting, rather than a photo. I liked the contrasting colours of white waves against the golden yellow beach. The people by the sea and the palm trees at the further side form a good composition.
Kind regards,
Tolga

Hi Catherine,
apart the sky, the scan is of very good quality, considering that the white of the foam dominates the picture and is not burnt. Gret and effective pov for a fantastic perspective for the coast and its daily life. Well done and have a good time in Marocco!

Hello Catherine,
This is a haunting image with a complementary powerful note. I once emailed Adam Silverman, the founder/operator of Trekearth, whether it would be possible to put some music as accompaniment for images. I would love to hear our "...lone African Ameican woman...singing in the dark all alone in front of ocean."
When I posted an image of Light Through the Trees, I had recommended Bach Tocata and Fugue as an accompaniment. Since then I've reconsidered, it should be Beethoven's Symphony #6 "Pastoral" but the slow movement.
Very very good photo.

Bonjour Catherine
I like the repetition of the scalloped waves on the beach. Nice colour contrasts of blue & green. Good sharpness & pov overlooking the beach. Amicalement!

Hello Cath
Good to see you back, with a fabulous image. the light FG and the dark BG is the ideal recipe for a beauty. the high POV, the waves leaving foam on the rocks, the boats, the ant like people..everything works wonderfully for the eyes. This is good work indeed!
Best Regards
Angshu

Hello Catherine,
A fascinating beach scenery!
The strong surf rolling in from the Atlantic adds life, and I notice the activity going on probably pulling the nets...
Amazing light results in fine colours, and the composition is well balanced and with fine details!
Greetings,

Hi Catherine
A very old and interesting, exotic photo. Well captured and lovely colours. The little silhouettes of men looks very nice and let to show enormity of the sea.
Regards
