Voici a nouveau et pour conclure cette mini série une photo d'Anse source d'argent, qui se trouve sur l'ile de la digue. Au loin on peut apercevoir l'ile de praslin que je présenterai dans les jours a venir.
Les Seychelles sont des iles volcaniques granitiques et une des grandes caractéristiques sont ces plages pavées de blocs de granit qui a la lumière tombante prennent des couleurs légèrement rouges ... spectacle merveilleux ... Merci mère nature

__________________________________________________________

Here is once again and to last my mini serie a picture of anse source d'argent, on la digue island, seychelles. Far away in background you can spot Praslin island, that i will present in coming posts.
One of the trademark of Seychelles are those granits blocs that can be found all along beaches (those islands are volcanic). At sunset those blocs take a red color which is marvelous to see ... thanks mother nature for such a beauty

Hello Sebastien!
Wonderful place and another great picture!
Beautiful colours and very calm atmosphere!
Perfect done!
Best regards!
Lili

Hello Sebastian,

A magnifficent photo of one of the worlds most beautiful destinations. The gradient of colour change over the rocks is very well presented. The wedge of darker blue is a eye catching feature. The inclusion of the rock on the lower centre of the shot is a good way to break up the FG. Superb depth of field and impressive clarity.

Wow..
Hi Sebastien
it has real god sharpnes, colors and compositions

These stones are wonderful, and really seems to be soft! It's incredible what erosion can do! The perspective and the colors of your picture are great! I also posted a picture of "soft stones" some time ago.

Hi Sebastien,

I was always very fascinated by this beach, very good DOF, nice light and colors

Bonjour Sebastion,
j'aime bien le travail du grand angle.
Les couleurs rouges des roches qui s'opposent vraiment au x autres dont ces magnifiques bleus et turquoises.
Très bien cadré ce petit coin de paradis.
Bien à toi.
Daniel.

Wow, this is like a paradise on earth! Not only does it have warm weather and nice beaches, but there are also those huge rocks, which are very beautiful and interesting. The colours that they get when the sun sets is really beautiful too, very warm an pink, which contrasts nicely with the blue water and sky. Excellent!

Hi Sebastian,
once again a great picture. The image formation is very good chosen. Very clear structured. Great mix from the warm colors of the stones and the blue of the rest of your pic. Nice silent mood. Well done.

Regards Mario

Long time, no see!
This is all about soft colours and let me say how beautiful it is. I love it very much. The scenery is wonderful and makes me wish to spend some time there. Well done.

Les couleurs sont sublimes, grâce à la nature certes mais certainement aussi grâce aux choix du talentueux photographe (réglages et certainement travail de PP tout en douceur). La seule petite "réserve" (quel présomptueux je fais....) est cette zone bizarre un peu plus foncée au milieu du ciel dont je n'arrive plus à détacher mon regard.
Amicalement

Hi Seb,
What rock forms! They look like shapes taken out from female body!
Oh! Quite an imaginative place i guess, and a place impossible to take and share! Colors are magical, and impossible to believe they are original 350D colors...
Cheers,
Deniz

Good morning, Sebastien! I don't know if stone can be soft and I guess it always hurts if you fall :))) but you have added a soft appearance to this beautiful rock formation and I find this well chosen. I like how the water has something hazy and unreal, it helps to let us feel paradise. Un bon matin, Barbara.

Salut Sébastien
La limite entre les rocher et l'eau semble presque irréelle... tu as fait un PP ou alors c'est comme ça.
Ces couleurs des îles sont fantastique.
Bon week-end
Christophe

magnifique endroit... impressionnants rocs, une superbe couleur les habille, splendide photo encore une fois, tu nous fais craquer devant de tels paysages; merci

It looks to me you had a nice holiday in a wonderful place !
I like soft light of the sunset, instead of the usual polarized light with dark blue sky which we are used to see for this place.

Hello Sebastien,
A beautiful look at the stone features and colorization, and the soft texture of the beach and water. Great angle to see beyond the immediate subject matter and out to sea. The lighting is fantastic here!
Excellent Poteau!...
Steve

Amazing what light and exposure can do sometimes to nature!... Great title because softness is the word here!

Cheers
Alexander

Your Seychelles series is pure psycho terror, man! Such photos should be forbidden. I think I’ll write to the admin and ask him to block these photos for obstructing heavily our daily life routine.
Cheers
Andreas

Bonjour Seb

une tres bone utilisation de ton grand angle.
Tres bien vu

Excellent image, the long exposure has created a beautiful dynamic effect on the water and created a soft textures, interesting perspective and impressive colours, a great work, congratulations. TFS.

Salut Sébastien,
Très belle conclusion de ta série - Et comme tu dis merci à mère nature car ici elle a mis le paquet ! Il est vrai que les blocs doivent prendre toutes leurs valeurs à cette heure de la journée - merci à toi aussi pour cette belle image qui nous permet de nous évader de ce monde de bruts dans lequel nous vivons. amicalement

Hi Sebastien. This series is a pleasure to observe. The colours and shapes, along with the blue skies are as you say marvellous to see. TFS. Murray.

Superbe!
Les couleurs sont tout simplement magnifiques!
Est-ce leur apparence visuele où mériteraient-elle d'un petit peu plus de saturation?
