The sky is very fascinating yet wonderfully textured and so are the tones and colours. The lone patrol guy is a wonderful subject who's been captured nicely into the frame.

Hi Agnieszka,
A simple scene but you framed it very well. I see traces of your PP around the man's head.
Have a nice day JY

Konna policja na plaży? Fajne spostrzeżenie. Ciekawe zdjęcie.
Pozdrawiam.

Belle photo de ce policier qui surveille la plage a cheval, façon écologique et non bruyante de surveiller cet endroit.
Le seul problème, c' est que les chevaux n' on pas de sac et qu' il est embêtant de marcher dans l' ecologie.
Jolies couleurs et bonne netteté de votre photo.

Amitiés Thomas
Je reviens

Hi Agniezka!
I`ve never seen a riding policeman at a beach before.Great shot ,you placed him perfect in the frame and I like these waves and the dramatic sky.
It seems not to be the cleanest beach,same same in Asia,plastic everywhere.
Regards,Leo

Hi Agnieszka

Good graphism of the mounted horseman, against the dark & ominous bg skies. Some slight oversharpening, around the policeman's hat, but it's not too noticeable. Maybe a bigger feather margin next time? Wonderful composition, with a good mood, that more than over rides any minor technical imperfections. Well done!

Bonjour, chère Agnieszka ,
Très jolie prise de vue. De plus, ce patrouilleur à cheval ressort merveilleusement sur ce fond d'une grande beauté.
Une photo parfaitement maîtrisée et très originale.
Amitiés.
Philippe

chrisnet (20374) 2008-02-27 1:56

parbo (10968) 2008-02-28 9:52

Hello Agnieszka,

Dark sky and its contrasts with waves and beach are very attractive in your photo. Lonely patrol is adding life to your frame while he is still busy with his duty. A great natural capture with its untouched colors that I like a lot too. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Ertugrul

Hello Agnieszka,

How nice to see you back at TE after a prolonged absence. This well composed shot was among your excellent posts since your return, but I just came upon it. The stark contrast in the mounted policeman in the foreground and gorgeous sea makes this a memorable photograph.

Warm regards and again, welcome back.

Hi Agnieszka, fascinating composition with wonderful sky and superb light, excellent exposure, very well done, have a good week end, ciao Silvio

vincz (19039) 2008-03-01 7:58

Great composition under such a beautifully rendered sky. rain is coming, colour of the see is perfect together with the white sand. Great work.

axiotea (16075) 2008-03-01 8:00

Hello Agnieszka
I was sending a critique on your last photo, but you have just removed it;)
Beautiful atmosphere created by the overcast sky and the luminosity which fit well together. It seems the policeman did not notice you, but not sure. He is well positioned with his horse in front of the sea...colors are fine too.
Cheers
Marilyn

emka (21331) 2008-03-01 16:44

Cześć Agnieszko,

Ty wracasz wspomnieniami do Tunezji, ja właśnie dziś z niej wróciłam i oglądam Twoje zdjęcia. Fajne dramatyczne morze i chmury, ciekawa ta konna policja. Ja teraz miałam błękitne niebo cały czas i gładką taflę. A konik niczego sobie.

Pozdrawiam

Małgorzata

danyy (68672) 2008-03-02 2:18

Hello Agnieszka,
cela faisait longtemps que je n'étais plus allé voir tes photos, il y a tellemnt de photographes sur le site maintenant.
Amoureux des ciels toutmentés, c'est précisément le ciel de ta photo qui a attiré mon regard sur la vignette.
Ce sont les conditions dans lesquelles je préfère me promener.

I wish you a very good sunday.
FRiendly.
Daniel.

devimeuxbe (55865) 2008-03-02 2:29

Hi Agnieszka
The situation of this policeman on the beach is interesting, not usual. The dark sky also is nice and you get a contrasting light.
Nice work
Bertrand.

jafadabret (39541) 2008-03-02 9:03

Agnieszka bonjour.
Cette photo est très réussie avec cette mer et ce ciel de mauvais temps. Le cheval et son cavalier font un excellent premier plan.
J'aime bien.
Jacques

trekks (14282) 2008-03-03 2:43

hi Agnies

The stormy and gloomy sky gives a wonderful contrast to the black horse and rider. The turbulent waves of the sea and composition here provide a nice perspective view for this shot.

well done.

TFS, bill

Hi Agnieska,
great catch and composition of this big man on his small horse. The light and colours of the beachscape are fantastic.
Regards

jrj (34779) 2008-03-03 7:01

I like the compo and I like the light from this day alt the shore - not least do I like the strange setting of this uniformed person riding along what seems to be a deserted place.

Angshu (33627) 2008-03-05 0:24

Hello Agnieszka
Well composed in a diagonal, with the patrolman in perfect position on his horse, riding into the frame. That the sky is dark, actually helps in the contrast. A very good capture!
Regards
Angshu

This is the kind of lights I love, Agnieszka. The contrast is beautiful and you found a nice subject to the foreground. (of course that I would prefer to see a blondie girl in the place of that officer ;-D

Zeca

A most unusual capture, Agnieszka, but I do like the contrast of the policeman and his horse against the stormy sky and the breaking waves. I can see some PP artifacts around the policeman's body, but apart from that this is an excellent photograph. Cheers . . . David

rbcy1974 (20742) 2008-06-17 3:40

Hello Agnieszka
Really beautiful photo, I like the way you have captured the stormy sky and the sea. The inclusion of the policeman gives the photo a cinematic feel.

Good evening Agnieszka
Wonderful gallery, excellent people shots, if only I had the patience and eye to capture them moments. Ill stick to the landscapes, this is a super shot with a the mood the best here. The detail in the horse and policeman is first rate with the rolling waves a good feature also. Keep up the good work. TFS

Jim
