Back from pasture, a photo from Zanzibar, East

Photographer's Note

Je me demande où ces jeunes bergers ont bien pu emmener leur troupeau paître
En tout cas, ces vaches ont l'air d'apprécier de retourner au village en passant par la plage, histoire d'observer un peu les touristes dans leurs chaises longues !

I wonder where these young shepherds may have taken the herd to pasture
Anyhow, it looks like the cows appreciate to return to the village at sunset, passing along the beach, just for the fun to watch tourists in their deckchairs

Hello Patrick!
These beautiful scenes are typical in areas of the world! For us it's amazing to see the kids who lead a small herd on the beach! Beautiful light on the cows!
Best regards, Nino.

Bonsoir Patrick
Tellement original et surprenant. Des vaches à la plage ? Je me souviens en avoir aussi vues en Corse...
La composition est parfaite, tout est bien à sa place: le troupeau au premier plan, le bateau dans le triangle supérieur droit et les personnages au fond.
Bravo
Chris

Salut Patrick,
Drôle de voir des vaches sur la plage, c'est pas ici qu'on verrait çà. Assez de plage, on retourne au pâturage. Une scène intéressante et plutôt originale. Bel éclairage et excellent rendu des couleurs.
Félicitations!... et toutes mes amitiés,
Emilius

Salut Patrick ,
Sur la vignette , on a l'impression que les vaches sont dans la neige ! Mais non , elles sont bien à la plage , comme en Corse . Belle lumière sur les robes qui contrastent avec le sable blanc .
Amicalement

hi patrick,
this is a fantastic picture with such a strange sight seeing these cows on the beach with nothing to eat, something more commonly seen in a field of grass. it is almost two pictures in one. the boats in the background add to the contrast with the cows. lovely light and sharpness as always.
regards,
brian

ciao patrick,

cest une image très particulière cette-ci! je n'avais jamais vu des vaches qui se promenent sur une plage si belle...où on pense de voir seulement des tourists

ciao

J'imagine un troupeau de vaches comme ça sur la Côte d'Azur!Rencontre inédite pour les amateurs de plage (qui n'ont pas l'air très nombreux quand même!)et que ton œil aux aguets ne pouvait pas laisser passer. D'où venait ce troupeau....bonne question!Original et beau.
Amicalement

Salut cher Patrick

heheheh not a scene we would see every day. Maybe these cows wanted a swim instead of to graze? Superb colours, excellent high POV and perspective and a very humourous and fascinating subject.

Thanks for sharing, bonne amities
Lisa

Hi Patrick
amazing to see cattle being driven along the beach. It is a fascinating and yet captivating image. Superbly executed and the light management is so beautiful and subtle. A compelling and wonderful image and presentation.

Hi Patrick
Delightful - you have captured their culture and the essence of this place to perfection, very well spotted and captured. They are so close that works so well, also the way they are placed adds to the composition, exposure is excellent with wonderful soft shadows and lovely colors rendition with immense depth. Congrats
Kind regards

Hello Patrick - For many people the beach, especially one as lovely as this, is a place for relaxation and sun worship. For these children it part of their daily lives and a convenient thoroughfare. Lovely soft evening light and a peaceful atmosphere. Super DL shot. Warm regards Rosemary
