Hi Bill!
I like the dynamism here and your low POV.Nice perspective at these boats and great depth.What an effort with the tripod placed in the water,but the result was worth it.A great shot with good natural colors and a nice,tight framing.

Hey!

Great job in creating the atmosphere and the sense of moving. Excellent use of the camera - shutter and aperture. Lovely focus, and a fine cadre in general, a fine "experiment" all around.

See you.

Hello Bill,

Your POV is excellently worked and created an interesting capture. Great addition of colorful boat at front and good setting of exposure. Nice effect of flowing water gives easily recognizable sense, power of water there. Very good one, congratulations.

Hej Bill
a nice picture from the interior, gives a good idea of those jungle streams an the clearness that maybe indicate that theres no big logging in the closest area anyhow.
fine color of the boat aswell.

Olá Bill,
devagar, mas vão longe esses barcos, apesar que no caso da foto parecem estar bem amarrados. Gostei do efeito de movimento que você conseguiu na água.
Parabéns e Abraço!

An arresting image, Bill. The sharpness of the boat and its clear blue color look good against the fast flowing water.The shape and positioning of the boat in the frame are really beautiful.I don't think the area of black border at the bottom helps, because it looks like part of the picture and so distorts the proportions, which look about right. regards kevin

Hi, Bill. The two boats make an ideal diagonal line in your composition. The idea of speed is well suggested by the fast flowing water in the foreground. The colours and contrasts are good and there is a good balance between low and high lights.

Hi Bill,
I like the effects achieved with long exposure, here you had to select the right speed to get water motion but not blur the boats, and you succeeded well.
Have a nice day JY

hello bill

wonderful scene and your framing. and a good idea to show the boats with the slow exposure, letting the water flow :) does bring about a feeling of motion. the boats must have been rather steady though, given how sharp they are.


with warm regards,

Hello Bill.
Great shot this one. The effect you achieved by your well explained method is remarkable. I like the fact the boats stayed still enough to give you the sharpness you needed for this photo. It looks great, full of energy and light and shade. You got an amazing viewpoint and perspective with your positioning of the tripod. Well done.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Bill,
Ingenious title for this beautiful photography, very good photographic technology and excellent colors.
The photography looks like an invitation to raise ourselves to these boats and crossing the image downstream, a great POV!
The contrast of tonalities is excellent.

Salut,

Jordi

Bil, j'aime l'effet de vitesse et les couleurs sur la rivière. Les deux barques sont très fines et contribuent à la beauté de l'ensemble.

Hi Bill,
What I like most here is the planning and visualization before taking this shot. The specific aim that you have is reflected in this very effective work and I am sure you get the satisfaction despite having to get your feet wet. I always enjoyed boats and this is no exception. Splendid shot!!

Do have a great Monday.
