Didn't want to shoot only the banal palmtrees and turquoise waters, I was looking for something else to shoot on the atoll and I found this girl relaxing on this kind of swing.
The six acres big/small atoll of Makunudu is located at fifty five minutes speed boat ride from Male'International Airport. It's a resort atoll with 36 bungalows on it and offers every kind of facilities and many activities relative to a vacation by the sea.

Hi Attila,
It is well done to find a model in your capture. It completes the composition by liveliness. It is very gargeous capture, because of clairty, sharpness, light and colurs. Every detail in this shot is great.
Thank you for sharing.
Selen

Hi Attila
Superb model and composition...
Great colours...
Nice POV...
Excellent work...
TFS/Regards

Szia Attila!
A harmónia és a nyugalom csak úgy árad a képből, már csak a nézésétől is lenyugszik az ember! :)
Milyen jól tetted, hogy nemcsak egy egyszerű tájképet töltöttél fel (bár nem hiszem, hogy azzal sokkal rosszabbul jártunk volna), szerintem a hintán ülő nő egy kicsit mozgalmassá is teszi a fotót.
A színek varázslatosak, a kompozíció lenyűgöző, az egész kép tökéletesre sikerült! Külön bejelölöm a kedvencemnek! (Szívem szerint így tennék az összes képeddel, de akkor hamar kifutnék a megengedettből, ezért is vagy kedvenc fényképészem! :) Külön köszönöm, hogy Te is bejelöltél enegem, nagyon megtisztelő!)
Üdvözlettel,
Marci

Attila
Great shot, with vivid colours and good composition. Good scanning as well, but maybe too heavy Noise Reduction on the clouds, don’t you think?

A pleasant view the nice girl and beautiful panorama as background. The colours and sharpness are well despite only from scanned picture. The quality is excellent as usualy, thanks my friend for showing this nice picture.

szia Attila,
and you find this girl;)hm,not bad..well,for me,is the perfect image of holiday,interesting,also,that she prefers to look at tree,not the sea;)but i really like this relaxed image!
nice day,Attila!
Flory

Attila,
The addition of the girl in the shot was a good idea giving the photo life and a nice point of interest. The background is great with excellent colors a textures. The seawalls add nice lines and diagonals to the photo. The lighting and colors are outstanding with nice sharpness and DOF.

Hello Attila,
It looks like a nice and relaxing place for a vacation. I'm sure agencies would love to have it on display. The woman is a bit too centered in the composition but that seems unavoidable. Regards,
Hakan

An excellent scan Attila. The scene is very bright and summery, with great contrast and sharpness, and lovely colours. I like the composition, with the girl on the swing between the two walls which meet at the left. Nice sky, too. Great shot.

SZai Attila!
Gyönyörű a tenger tisztasága és egyetértek a "modell" még élőbbé teszi a képet. Élesség, megvilágítás és expo - tökéletes.
SZivesen relaxálnék én is egy ilyen helyen.

Hej Attila,
Great picture with a very nice atmosphere of holidays. You captured the girl very well and it must be lovely to sit on that swing surrounded by palm trees and a very blue sea. The inclusion of the trees in the upper left hand corner is very good too, well done!

Hello Attila,
it was a good idea i think to include the relaxing girl in your frame.Excellent composition although scanned from print.Impressive the colours and the clarity and the light.The Bahamas water color is superb.Well done my friend.

Regards,Danos

What a lovely spot. ... and an amazing seascape.
Best wishes,

Ciao Attila!!

la ragazza non riesco a riconoscerla! Ma potrebbe essere un tipo strano che ama stare in una simile posizione....in mostra!
Scherzi a parte, i colori sono bellissimi e l'orizzonte scuro.
Ma perchč ce l'hai con le palme e l'acqua turchese? Io vorrei vedere su TE un tema tutto di spiagge con palme e poi scegliere quella dove andare.

very pleasant and relaxing shot. A place where we would like to be doing nothing, just swinging in the wind. Great endless sea. Good composition with the tree and the girl.

What a romantic picture you have here. Very nice good looking girl, and plus the overall scene is beautiful, making it looks so relaxing. Well done my friend. Sothy

Not many landscapes to shoot in the Maldives, except some glorious sunrises or sunsets... you found a good compo here, reflecting the holiday mood quite well! Good colors and sharpness, well controlled exposure.

What an image Attila! …love it, no not only for the girl, but how you captured the scene. The low walls add nice lines and also offer nice colour contrasts. The blues are brilliant! Wonderful shot my friend.

Hi Attila,
You've wonderfully captured this idyllic scene. The vibrant blue waters is so inviting to take a swim. Good inclusion of th the woman in the swing to add dynamism to the compo. Well composed ... excellent work! tfs

Superbe prise de vue, couleurs et netteté exeptionnel. L'arbre dans le coin gauche ,donne du ton au couleur des la mer. Sujet interessant d'effet de vacance réussi,,beau cadrage.. J'aime .. Réal.

Olá Atila, it surprises me the excellent quality that you got on your old scanned photos. It's a very summer mood image, indeed. The girl is may be a bit to central, but it is of course a good inclusion and the crystaline waters make a splendid vision of the paradise.

Hola Attila.
Amazing shot with great view of the beautiful sea captured with several colors tones, your POV is very good. Good light and sharpness. The girl looking so peaceful and relax is a good add in your shot. Good work in a scanned picture. Well done.
Best regards.

For me turquoise waters could be enough :)I love this color here...But having this nice woman in frame it's much more attractive :)For sure,I would like to be there,too.Wonder if you can put her not so centered :)

Belle photo de cette femme a l' air nostalgique, mais a quoi pense t' elle dans un cadre si agréable. Je trouve que votre photo nous pousse a nous poser des questionssur le fait qu' elle a l' air si pensive,bien sur je suis romantique et j' ai l' esprit qui part vite.Bel ensemble et superbe nature.

Ciao Attila
io sono del partito mare a vita, barca, pescata e mangiata al grill.
Se il posto č cosě credo di resistere anche una quindicina di anni.... :))
Nulla da dire sulla tua foto che fa da contraltare alle tipiche foto dalle Maldive.
Bisogna rispettare tutti i punti di vista, soprattutto quelli ben motivati come il tuo.

Obviously, it's been an expensive destination, especially with the beauty included. Maybe now it's a bit cheaper - the lady is more than ten years older;-)

Brilliant colors and compo of your pic really may make people sick for the lust of exotic seas...

Beautiful view, both for the nature and the model. ;-)
It fits perfectly on the dreamy ideas one has of a tropical paradise.
The compo is splendid and the colours and sharpness are so great that it is hard to believe that it is a scan (and from a print!!!).

This is a stunning shot, the light is magnificant and the detail od the aoll on the horizon ie awesome. Fantastic capture.

La composition et les couleurs sont trčs belles et nous invitent ŕ l'exotisme et ŕ pousser la jeune femme...

Hi Attila, A beautiful scene & a beautiful lady to match, wonderful light, very well composed, sharp & colourful, like it a lot, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Hi Attila,
I discovered your gallery when I was writing a critique to your little daughter's photo. It's full of well shot, well composed images. This one is no exception. By the way, you can shoot banal palm trees and turquoise waters by all means because they are something we rarely have a chance to see. )))
Congrats.
Fusun

wao! que buena vista, que buena fotografia, muy cool eso.

excellent capture of the mood of the lady enjoying her holiday. colours are very vibrant too. great pov and tfs.

regards,
arjun

Gorgeous execution. The light coming from the back of the girl makes her look like a ad: "Visit Maldives... and relax". The image itself is very relaxing and inviting.

Cheers, my friend,
Enrique

Con questa bella ( in tutti i sensi ) e suggestiva immagine estiva desidero augurare a te e tutti i tuoi cari una buona e serena Pasqua.
Ciao e buona domenica
