Fisherboat at the coast near Malindi.

Malindi has been a Swahili settlement since the 14th century and today a touristic centre. Beside the main routes you could see many traditional buildings.

Hi Achim, good one, with a well managed light, good POV and composition and quality too.
thanks, ciao

Bonjour, mon ami Achim,
Ancienne photo qui n'a rien perdu de son charme, bien au contraire. La numérisation est excellente !
Image parfaitement cadrée, les couleurs sont superbes et contrastées à souhait !
Bravo !
Amitiés.

Hello Achim,
I remember going in a glass-bottomed boat off Malindi very many years ago. Very nice to see it again in this lovely serene composition which benefits from a very appealing ambient light. Good colours and clarity.

Hi Achim

I can almost feel the languid, tropical heat, emmanating from this image. Good sharpness, colour & lighting. The listing boat at low tide, anchors the shot nicely. Tfs!

Hi Achim,

very good capture of the boat. I like to see that element against the beauty of the Malindi cost. Very good work on the scan too. Well done!
Regards,
Carlos

Achim ,je pense que la photo aurait été encore meilleure si elle avait été faite directement par un appareil numérique. J'aime cette composition avec le bateau traditionnel au premier plan.

Hi Achim,
Beautiful clear colors and wonderful details to this simple eye pleasing capture of this tiny beach. The traditional fishing boat looks wonderful as it list towards the the lush green woods and lovely contrasting blue sky.
Regards, Tom

Hi Achim,
That wave was well timed ... that gave this photo life because of its dynamics. Very good quality considering it is from a scanned image. Well captured and composed. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hello Achim,
Wide travel must be taking u a lot of places and giving some great shots for your camera.
The shots you got here are so varied and diverse, colourful and rich with life.
This one, I love it for that simple wave caught in action, the lovely PoV you got for the anchored boat and the light blue sky with clouds.
Very well done.
TFS & Cheers
P.S: Didnt know it cud look this wonderful when scanned out from a negative!:)

Hallo Achim.
Schönes Bild, schöner Ort...
I tried a WS because there is ,in my opinion, a blue-grey balance problem. What do you think.

Hi Achim,

A nice scenery of the sea and of the fisherman boat, the point of view is giving depth to the photo. The luminosity brings out the colors. The photo is clear and precise. It is giving a sensation of tranquillity and scenerity. Have a nice day.

Hi Achim,
