[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A scene taken form another boat in Ca Mau, Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Thankfully it was dry season when we were in Ca Mau - apparently in the wet season, you need a shotgun to keep the very BIG mosquitoes at bay!

Some people have said to me that they find the white water in the foreground distracting (not that there was a whole lot I could do about it!), but it doesn't bother me that much.

Beautiful photo. At once extremely naturalistic -- the colors, the tones -- and nearly abstract. Really interesting perspective and execution. Thanks for sharing it.

Hi Anthony.
Very good use of focus, a different point of view; congratulations.
Thanks for sharing, have a great week.
Best regards.

Yasin.

Hey Anthony,

Unique composition here to have so much of the water in the foreground and with your choice of depth of field, and I like it a lot. Good work.

amazing perspective.

Hello Anthony!
Very nice! I like that we are straight behind his back. The colors of the water is beautiful and the main subject is very well focused. I like that you cut the boat on the left. I also like how you adjusted the horizon according to the boat and not to the land in the background.
Very impressive!
Marc

Hi,
A very good picture, nicely taken.

But, I would prefer to crop the water a bit.
