[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one for those who are in the middle of winter right now......

Wooden canoe, Zanzibar Island (off Tanzanian Coast. The sand really is that white, the sea that blue (and warm!). Local men fish in boats like this one, while women drag nets through the water.

Not much done to this at all. A little cropping and adjusting of brightness. Always open to suggestions.......

good compo, maybe a little tilt to even out your short lense's curve on the horizon, and i'd have included the full width of the boat. also looks a bit oversharpened. great colors though, looks quite alluring, -10 C this morning in seoul :-(

Welcome to TE Karina!
5 photo - 5 countries -- good beginning! You much travel?
This is a good unusual shot! But cost, boat to place in frame wholly... and too wash away back background.

Allo,
À Montréal, nous sommes bel et bien au milieu de l'hiver et cette photo nous réchauffe le coeur. Continue à publier tes photos, tu nous fais faire le tour du monde.

somehow this picture is Mysterious to me... I don't know exactly why... I like it very much, especially the Light Light color of the sand against the darker sky... Very nice Karina! Take care! Ramon

This one's really beautiful. Rugged old boat, beautiful blue ocean, the white sand lovely.

I like this picture a lot. It made me think of Yucatan/Mexico. There the sand is that white too and the sea that deepblue. Very nice. At first I also thought you should have included the whole boat but now I think it gives the photo more depth. Now I wonder; did you do it on purpose (maybe even cropped it)?

Hello Karine,
Good colors for this view. Good contrast between the see and the sand. But, It's a pity, a part of the boat is missing.
Good work anyway,
Nicole
