Hello J.P.

After a day at work, it is refreshing to read and enjoy your work!
This shot reminds me so much of that achieved by using a scraperboard, though of course, yours is much sharper and more exact. The willowy trees don't seem strong enough to stand, yet there they are!
I love the peaceful solitude of this and the limited, yet expressive colours.

I think I would have cloned out those wires, my friend.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

A little bit distressing mood. Something about the vanishing time, something about the end of the life.

Hi JP,
This is a fine composition ... I like the simplicity of the structure. The silhouette repeating patterns of the coconut trees is quite visually striking. Well captured and composed ... good application of the rule-of-thirds too. Well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hi JP
Nice silouettes of the palm trees in a backlight.... I like the shine and texture of the sea. The electric lines are not really aesthetic, but people need light don;t they!

Warm greetings, Jean Paul,
I love palm trees amd these are so nicely silhouetted against those soft tones still with excellent detail and sharpness. I like the muted light and subdued colors. You can almost hear the waves wash againt the shore. Lovely note, as always. It's a beautiful spot. Many thanks and kindest wishes my friend,
Shelly

Hi,Poet,
Another palm-tree orchestra where harmony is the conductor.
Excellent and poetic even if you had added no note at all:)
Nice verses as usual:)

DEAR JEAN
I HAVE SEEN YOUR WORK. IT IS INTERESTING TO SEE HOW PEOPLE SEE THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY. YOUR PERCEPTION OF WORLD IS INCREDIBLE. YOUR REFLECTIONS AND IMAGE MAKE YOUR WORK IMPECCABLE. YOU DESERVE CREDITS.
CONGRATULATIONS.

Hi Jean Paul,
A beautiful image of this landscape of beach and palms, in an image with its fantastic silhouettes in a great cross-light and a few magnificent sheens on the sea.
The graphical contrast is very effective and has a strong attractive at sight.
Nice shot.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi JEAN PAUL

Good graphism & partial silhouettes of the coconut palms, which also add a good repetitive element to the composition. Tfs!

Hi Jean, the master of palms,
This is not a good shot.
This is a great shot.
This doesnot look beautiful,
It looks out of the world.
This is not our earth,
This is heaven.
Fantastic shot Jean.
Loved it.
Regards,
Sagarneel.

Hi Jean Paul,

A pleasant back-light on this whole of palm trees. I am always impressed by the smoothness of their trunks. The days of wind I imagine their dance. An image with a beautiful poetic environment, thank you Jean Paul.

With all my friendships and very good Sunday,

Jean-Charles

Hello JP,

A beautiful and soothing image well composed under low light. The palm trees give the view a more interesting feeling of calmness. Nice perspective of the moment and place. Definitely a place created for relaxation and good photography. Thanks JP.

Hi Jean. It is a dream turned into reality in the beautiful canvas of this lovely shot. Perfect blending of the swaying coconut trees with the backdrop of the sea with a greenish tint. Regards.

Ah! But for those damn cables! These poetic silhouettes of a dream island would be great. Those cables and the street lamp ruin my day-dreaming. ))) I hope someday they manage to bury all those cables underground and we photographers can shoot happily. (While they are at it, they should also ban white plastic chairs and plastic shopping bags, too!)
Anyway, it's a good photo, very romantic despite them.
Best wishes,
Fusun

Hola Jean Paul.
Very beautiful picture of this tropical scene with a great light management. The silhouettes of all the coconut trees look great against the sky. Very well done and thanks for sharing.
Wish you a nice week ahead.
Best regards.

Hi Jean Paul,
As I have mentioned before, your photography trascends traditional photography with the emphasis on all of the tecnical stuff. You are a poet and a mystic and the camera is a paintbrush for your literary side. This is another mystical image with an almost monochromatic tone which isn't distracted by the worldly colors. Just beautiful light and excellent composition. Another "God" image. Lovely!

I love the colors and tall trees.
Again this is a beautiful work of reverse light.
It is completed by the moody poem.
Well done, my friend!

Well, I'm not sure that this teaches us much about the world, but the counterlight is beautiful and I'd love to find myself under high coconut trees swinging in the breeze !
2 persons dreaming in front of the sea ; a crow is about to land somewhere... Nice framing...
Best regards dear friend, looking forward to seeing more photos showing your part of the world, beautiful Kerala !

Hello JP,

The shimmering sea sets the mood!
A simple and beautiful composition, where the silhouetted palm trees make an impact seen against the cloudy sky...
A muted colour palette but it fits the atmosphere!
