A great entry Joel. Welcome in TE. The almost silhouette of woman, the amazing pink background with the "ghost" mountains form a splendid composition.

Excellent first upload Joel, welcome to TE. The overall color is very relaxing while you perfectly chose the moment to click o the shutter, I like her bowing move.
I simply wish you didn't put your signature over the image, this si quite eyecatching and distracts from the reading.

Moreove be aware it's quite useless, there would be many ways to get rid of it for an ill intentioned person.

Nice shot! Love the layers of different kinds of (warm) pink, and the little silhoutte of the hard working woman. Very calm and sereen picture.

Welcome 2 TE

Very beautiful photograph as introduction. The young woman seems to walk on water. The colours are superb, and I like the range of the mountains,far away. Good composition in an excellent luminosity.

Welcome to TE!

Oh Yes! A fotografia está excelente. A memória ainda melhor. Como o Luko disse, pena o nome gravado na fotografia...vem de uma certa forma estragar a componente estética da imagem. A composição é admirável. espero que consiga rápidamente corrigir os daods geográficos: Dili não é, óbviamente, em Lisboa. Timor Leste livre. Sempre.

Super Joel, like everything about it (but the signature). You have achieved a beauty of a conventional landscape photograph with wonderfull colours, layered background, and great composition, and gave it life by having the woman picking up shells. The light is great, and the fact that she isn't silhuetted and some details are detectible is indeed fantastic.

Olá Joel!

Bem vindo ao TE! Muito boa primeira imagem. As tonalidades e suavidade geral da foto criam uma sensação de serenidade muito boa.

Gosto da colocação da pessoa na composição e da forma como as montanhas se vão desvanecendo acentuado a sensação de distância. Igualmente, a diagonal descendente para a direita destas montanhas reforça a posição da pessoa ao "apontar" para ela.

Quanto à questão da assinatura penso que poderia ser apenas um pouco mais discreta. Pessoalmente opto por coloca-la nas imagens pois sempre divulgam o meu site e servem de protecção. Já aconteceu mais que uma vez ver powerpoints com imagens minhas sem referência ao meu nome. E embora seja fácil apagar uma assinatura acredito que na maior parte das vezes quem faz essas apresentações não se vai dar ao trabalho de o fazer.

Já tinha visto esta foto, mas num monitor de qualidade duvidosa, de modo que não quis comentar.
Para além da beleza do cenário, a composição,tonalidades e luz tornam esta foto num desejo de impressão de bom formato.

Amazing!
Such great pink colours and light! The background has a nice scala of layers and the foreground has a good reflection. The girl adds something extra. And although you have this light, she is not hard to see, but very detailed.
Great work. One of my favo's!

Beautiful composition and rose tones. The mood is amazing. The silhouette and its reflection are really judiciously placed in this magnificent landscape.

Very very nice colors for a special ambiance. The composition is great too : it is a good idea to have placed the woman on the right side. I would perhaps have given more room to the sky than to the water. Welcome and enjoy TE !

Every thing in this picture seems OK except the colour. Good composition and the center of interest the woman is positioned in intersection of rule of third but the space should have been in front of her not behind.

What I have seen in front scenary is some kind roots of sea grass. They can be recognized easily by the sun set.They made the surface of the sea rough but the shadow of the girl searcing for shells is impressive on such rough surface. Back stage is anothe issue.Four or five layers have nothing to be talked about.

A wonderful composition with lovely colour which create an interesting mix with the light.
The woman is well off centered and the mountains in the background offer different layers for the eye.
Well done. Thanks for sharing

Hi Joel. A remarkable composition with a lot of emotive energy and unusual visual effect especially the colour. Placement of the lady working is strong in this frame. TFS. Murray.
