Lovely patterns on the vast expanse of the river, Rakesh. The dark shapes of water birds skimming the surface look beautiful.

Hi Rakesh!
These little waves look great in the evevning sun.Beautiful colors and good light, and good composition with the birds.
Thanks and regards,LEO

Hi Rakesh,
I will go to see in the next days your fine Portfolio, but now I have some delayed critiques to others that also make critiques to me. You are a person that have a good Portfolio and also like critical well balanced critiques and share with others with contribution and words. The world is for share in a positive way without regional, frontires in the NET and all underdeveloped thinks are from the social status of some that are pre-historic in all the world. I like the way you got this simple and beautiful composition.

If you wanted to get the birds with focusing it was so difficult than also this one in a blur motion. Try more with a sportiv capture however is also difficult. For me my critique to a simple beautiful scenery and moment that you show to us with fine light, motion and atmosphere.

Congratulations, also TFS and friendly yours.

Bonjour,
La lumière de ton image est superbe. j'aime beaucoup le graphisme donné par le mouvement des vagues aussi.

Hi Rakesh,
Nice pattern on the river. Pity though that the birds got a bit of blur. Nevertheless, a good pic with good framing.

this looks absolutely superb. nature does produce these wonderful moments, and nice for you to have snapped out one in your camera.
Best, Arnab

PS: just to comment here:
i am a physicist, and a friend of mine who works on surface wave pattersn in nanomaterials showed me some images from his experiments yesterday, they looked very similar.

weswang (18223) 2006-03-21 23:31

Hi Rakesh, A well chosen title to fit this picture. I like the abstractive view of this picture with impressive view of the wave and the reflections to the sun. In signal processing. We do see some of the wavelength analysis like the pattern as shown in this picture; with no birds there, of course :D. Nice shot. Thanks for sharing.

sarju (5308) 2006-03-22 2:25

Du très beau travail !

Hi Rakesh,

I like the excellent notes about camera setting that you post. This is a nice sunset shot. The birds in there add to the liveliness of the place. Nice work.

regards, Raza

anavazao (5592) 2006-03-23 19:17

wow,
the water have great colours and effect! Nice shot! Great POV, details, composition!
Thanks Ana:)

pastadog (12093) 2006-03-26 3:36

Hi Rakesh, you skillfully isolated this part of the river, with the rhytmic pattern, in superb colors. The birds are OK too, and I believe that a shot without birds would be fine for this too. Congratulations, Daniel

Marlis (2274) 2006-03-27 15:02

hello Rakesh,
thank you for sharing this wonderful image. The colors are superb and the effect of the waves on the water is marvelous. Great framing.

djprat (72) 2006-04-01 20:29

the colors ond the waves are surrealist! If the bird were not seen, we could think this picture was taken on the planet Mars!

Hi Rakesh,
Fabled impression. I like the fascinating atmosphere and the glittering colours. Very good observation and superb realization. Excellent composition and cut. Beautiful work. Thank you, nice days

benkrut (3395) 2007-02-26 19:27

Hi
I love the lines and colours created by little waves and sun. To be honest with you I'd prefer to see it without the birds - it could be quite interesting.Take care
Henryk

batalay (19188) 2007-03-02 11:09

Hello Rakesh,

As a physicist I am very much aware of waves -- traveling waves, standing waves, exponential decays -- and your image of the magnificent site of gentle waves, setting up a naturally diagonal form, I found most compelling. Your title for the shot is equally appealing. The composition and light, the colors and exposure are all exquisite.
I will be back after I gather some green smileys, :))

Hello Rakesh
Lovely patterns of the waves & ripples across the water. The birds are a great add to the image with their motion blur. Lovely one

Superbe jeu de lignes !
J'aime beaucoup.

gervaso (2827) 2007-10-08 18:50

Wonderful lines formed by the waves! In the miniature I couldn't even see what it was exactly, I thought it was sand in a desert or something like that. The colors are also great!

ayansadhu (1489) 2007-12-31 5:08

Thought the thumbnail looked interesting the actual image (to be frank) doesn't live upto the expectations...
The balance of the subject is desired here
Otherwise a very nice try...
