The powder white sands of Boracay doesn't heat up that much even under the hot summer sun. Though this shot was taken in colour, I tried using another treatment using B&W.

Hi Jom,
Your photos look like high quality profi works, i couldn't decide which one to write, yet this is the most recent.
Your WB here looks so real that i believe, the white sands look really like that. The boys and their happy mood add positive energy to the score. You knew perfectly how to place them diagonally, the tilt, the legs and the arm do this with a great success. Congratulations,
Deniz

Hi Jom,
Your galleries are truly impressive. I can see you love high POV.
This is a gorgeous image. Love the range of tones and the well-balanced composition. The texture of the sand is to die for. Very high quality for a great image.
Regards,
Maria

are you currently in my philippines?... if you are,
i am sure you are spared of the recent typhoon since this capture depicts a bright sunny day! the cocaine-like powdery sands are a trademark of boracay seen here very well. the boy facing the camera says it all- smiles come easy with us!
now, you make me homesick!
Benedict

This is great..very nice pp work. Perfect pov and timing. Oh! And I DO LOVE BORACAY!!! Wish I was there right now basking in the sun :) TFS and have a great day!

I felt nostalgic seeing this picture, these two kids are really enjoying the symbol of Boracay, the dramatic tilting really works well here and i congratulate you for that. It a great shot.

hello jom

no, no, don't lose the color on this one. the creamy palette is the key to this scene. i think :) not so sure about the PoV though. a bit high, but then again: who am i to say :)

warm regards,
kristaps
