Another picture from onboard the vessel. The local people are so friendly and constantly smiling trying to sell their goods.

Hi Lynette,

I love the composition here with the colored goods and the diagonal position of the boat.
The smile on the guy's face made me smile too.

It is quite strange that we can see two legs in the right side of the pic without seeing the person. Is it something he sells too? :-)

Thanks,
Yonathan.

Hi Lynette!!! Very nice picture!!! These guys are giants but they are so friendly that you think that nobody could hurt a fly!!! Otherwise you see the war and conflicts which are in these countries and so I think that a lot of these people have two faces!!! I know that a lot of these peple are peaceful and want nothing more than peace btu the poitical situation is quite difficult and so unfortunately the friendly people are often touched by war!!! I hope that it will change soon because there is alot of potential in these countries to come back to nature and become reasonable!!!

Regards Oli

Hi Lynette,
Very original shot, great POV. I like the patterns on the water, great effect.
Nice job!
Quentin.

A good composition although you've committed the sin of cutting off a subject at the legs!

Nice colours in the water and the fruit in the back of the vessel. Your subject is obviously very engaging too.

It is a touch unsharp but it must have been a tricky shot to take - from a helicopter, or an overhead bridge?

Well done and thanks for sharing it!

Lynette, thanks a lot for your kind words to my image.
I saw this composition of yours, it´s amazing, very beautiful!
There are some flaws though, like lack of sharpness and levels, I tried an alternative in the ws. hope you don´t mind!

Die Komposition ist sehr gut ,die Frage ist
ob Sie mit einer Bildbearbeitung nageholfen haben oder?
sonst das Bild ist sehr schön Very nice

Danke

Hi Lynette,
The color and pattern of the water makes the subject prominent. Great foto!

Hi Lynette, nicely composed, however there is a lack of contrast and sharpness I think, you could try a S shape in the curves(it increases contrast)...
Cheers

Fantastic POV and the water looks surreal here as well.. Excellent! Regards, Doug

Wow Lynette! I LOVE this photo! The silver water contrasts the bright colours of the fruit nicely...it looks like he's floating on mercury! Excellent POV and interesting framing! :) Shannon

Hi Lynette.. long time no TEK (talk) :)?
Well this photo reminds me the years I lived in Mozambique.
I presume the water has a more vivid blue petrol tonality..
I like this honest smile..
:)
