[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken on Nungwi beach in the north of Zanzibar.
I was walking on the beach early one morning before the fishing boats were out,there were these magnificent clouds, and the light was still nice and soft.

Wow. Those clouds really are something. Have you done any work on them like upping the contrast?

The lines fromthe boats, water and sand all draw me into that nice yellow patch of sky. Pretty cool.

Hi Wanda
I like this beautifull composition on Zanzibar. The blue lagune, the cloudy sky , the boats. This is a nice report on Zanzibar.
If you like you could see many pictures from Zanzibar in may galery.
Thanks for sharing this picture.

Hi Wanda, this is a beautiful shot. I like the fact that you focused on the basic elements - cloud, water, sand and a big sky. I'm surprised to see such a big fleet of dhows at Nungwi, it's not as I remember it, but that was nearly ten years ago. Interesting photo!
Regards, Ryno

hi Wanda,
i like nice colors of the sand, the water and the sky. The image makes an impression the space and time without end.

Hi Wanda .
this pic is very unic. beautiful landscape and very good pov.
may be you should cut 10% from the sky and 5% from the bottom, and you'll get wonderful panorama.

Hi Wanda,
Hooooo it's so soft. These colors, these clouds... I like the way the masts of the boats bend in the same direction than the clouds.
I'll be picky and write that you horizon is tilted. But if you'd changed it, you'd loose your nice diagonal in the top left corner... Life is unfair ;-).
Great photo!

Amazing light for an unreal atmosphere!! I really like the silhouettes of the boats and threatening clouds in distance! Great work!

Hi wanda,
I like this soft picture, perhaps can you try a panoramic picture for more density. I meet bir ali beach in yemen again.
I put it in my favorite picture.
regards dilane
