Like never stops, J.P. but I think a few hearts would have missed a beat looking at this scene! It is so beautiful and tranquil!
The sea looks like molten gold!
The sand bar with the fishermen assists the eye to move deeper into the shot!
It's just wonderful!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi JP,
A boat that is lonely and waiting for passenngers is a very good subject. What I like in your composition is the fact that there are two boats: one empty and one with people. A nice contrast, and you stressed on the one that is empty. Life's journey is fascinating, at every corners you'll find happy surprises. Lovely golden lights and awesome reflections. Beautiful shot.

Hi Jean Paul,
Beautiful, pleasantly relaxing, inspiring and meditative... You are a master (re)producing these magically wonderful atmospheres with your POV's and the adjustment of colours and light.
It is almost bad tasted being so fussy with such unimportant details: the horizon has a wee inclination and maybe the compo would gain with putting the FG boat more to the right, farther from the centre.
Have a nice Sunday.
Regards, José.

Bonjour Jean
belle utilisation de ce rayon de soleil pour placer vos trois personnages, le résultat est très beau - le poème me semble très bien adapté, mais ma traduction est trop moyenne pour capter ce que vous avez vraiment voulu dire, je m'en veux -

Warm wishes, Jean Paul,
another of your wonderful shots and a marvelous note. I love the golden color in this and the calmness of the water. The foreground boat is beautifully placed and I love the way the men in the other boat are caught in the sun's path. Just wonderful! Many thanks and kindest wishes,
Shelly

Hello Jean Paul,
Your poetry and beautiful photography always go hand in hand. This is a marvelous image and a mystical and dreamlike one also. The glistening Sun shining on the three people in the boat in the distance and then creating a powerful ray of light to the bottom of your frame is pure magic! It is interesting that two different themes are at work with this photo of yours; power and serenity. A paradoxical theme. Your compositions are always very individualistic and creative. The statement by Ralph Vaull Starr resonates with me also. Outstanding! :) tomorrow

Hi JP,
That is a well composed image with two boars balancing each other, good POV to have the far canoe right into the sun.
I like the color tones and the luminosity and shine of the water.

Hi Jean Paul,

Superb management of the light. I like much all these reflections golds. I appreciate the texture of the sea, one would say liquid gold. Environment breathes serenity. It is very pleasant to look at. Beautiful work and thank you for the poetic text.

With all my friendships and with soon,

Hi Jean!
What a nice shot! Those three silhouettes with the reflection of the sun behind them are fantastic there.The composition is very good, also because of this boat in foreground. The colours are really good also. Very well captured!

• daddo (8493)
• [2008-01-29 21:30]

Namaste Jean Paul. One could drown in this light, this liquid and ethereal light. Find a spot, like this boat, and rest, gently rocking, while one listens to murmur of the waves, the laughter of children and the philosophizing of the elders. Very evocative shot of your beloved land. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Jean Paul,

I love ever the lonely boats. For me they produce a strong feeling of nostalgy, perhaps a little bit of sadness, but too they talk about the bigness of the world, and too about the calmness in the life. Here, the soft colors enhance these feelings. It's a beautiful shot, and, overall, a sensitive image! Thanks a lot!

Greetings,
Angel.

Hello Jean Paul:

Precious composition. The depth of field is wonderful that you used to describe a scenario full of color in the handling of light and shade.

The reflexes are magnificent. There is a lot of balance in the distribution of elements in the making. Congratulations.

Ant the accurate point of view is impressive, as you're able to place the three guys right in the reflected sun...
The empty boat is the eye-catcher and a fine point to start my exploration of the image!

Here is one of your golden sunsets that I had not yet visited, dear JP... Yes, beautiful... But I just come from TL where I saw lively scenes in your gallery that pleased me very much, telling me more about your world !
(Please, forgive my curiosity...)
This is splendid, anyway !
Compliments,
