Photographer’s Note
Last upload. This coming Monday I'm leaving to Buenos Aires, Argentina for 2 weeks.
This picture was taken from the balcony of an apartment located on the sea front of Juan Dolio Beach, it was a beautiful sunny morning, I left on purpose a tiny bit of coconut tree leaves on the left for better frame.
Not much was done as a PP work on this picture, just some crop and sharpness after resizing.
Hope you like it.

Idyllic tropical beach empty of people. I thought it must be early morning but the shadows are short so where are all the people? You had a fantastic POV looking down on the beach. It's amazing how tall those palms are when compared to the huts. Stunning shot. Enjoy your trip.

Bonsoir Emile,
Une merveilleuse plage de sable blanc comme celle-là, ça donne envie de partir dans le Sud. Je me souviens pas avoir vu cette plage quand je suis allé à Juan Dolio, elle n'était peut-être pas là car je vois que les palmiers sont jeunes. Quand je suis allé on était à créer une plage, voisin de notre hôtel, avec du sable pris ailleurs et on se préparait à construire un hôtel. Excellente clarté d'image et superbes couleurs. Je pars moi aussi pour une semaine de vacnces, mais ici au Québec, pour admirer les paysages d'automne.
Bonne vacances à Buenos Aires,
Amicalement,
Emilius

Hola Emile,
Otro bonito paraíso de tu país. Me gusta esa arena blanca con sus pequeñas palmeras esparcidas por ella.
La luz y los colores son estupendos.

Linda fotografia, ótimo ângulo, cores divinas; as palmeiras muito altas e tortas parecem estar bailando. Ótimo trabalho meu amigo, parabéns!

Hi Emile,
A cleat, sharp and noiseless image. The sweet colors look great and sharpness is first class! (I'm not joking!) I'm not sure about the bit of palm, which could easily have been cloned out, but that is a minor detail.
Enjoy your trip in Argentina, and bring us loads of pictures back!

Hi Emile,
This is a very attractive place and to be able to enjoy such view from your balcony is a luxury. Judging from the shadows it must be around midday. I particularly enjoyed to see the young palms decorating the foreground, the lovely calm blue sea and the nice clouds. As for the bit of palm leaves on the left, I personally would go without it together with the one on the far right. A well exposed shot!!
Regards and have a great time in Argentina.

Bona tarda Emile,
mirando tu fotografía llego a la conclusión que el paraíso está en la República Dominicana, qué belleza de paisaje.
Las palmeras - vegetación mediterránea por excelencia- junto a la arena blanca, y los azules del mar y del cielo, forman una excelente composición.
Salud.
Desde Catalunya, Jordi

Hola Emile,
Me quedo un poco nostálgico sólo de verla, aun que no conozca esa playa en particular. Cuando me fue de paseo a Juan Dolio solo logré ver un pedazito de la playa publica, pero estaba lloviendo y algo oscuro y es algo complicado de llegar cerca del mar, al menos de coche.
Los colores y nitidez son excelentes y la compo está muy bien lograda, el arreglo de los elementos está muy elegante. Es interesante como la derecha está mucho mas llena que la izquierda y mesmo así no hay cualquier desequilibrio.
Espero que lo disfrutes bien en la Primavera de Argentina.
Un fuerte abrazo, José.

Hola amigo Emile,
éste es el lugar en el que mi esposa dice que quiere alojarse cuando nos sea posible venir a la RD. Un lugar y una playa preciosos, muy sugerentes, que invitan a unas bonitas y relajadas vacaciones. Arena blanca, mar azul intenso, cielo con bellas nubes decorativas y elegantes palmeras.
¿Qué más se puede pedir? Sí, una copa en estas terrazas y una visita a un buen amigo dominicano.
Preciosa foto, hasta pronto, disfruta de tu viaje.

Hi Emile,
A bucolic scene captured in fine light. You controlled the exposure well here and I like the way the sand melds into the sea. This is an inviting place, with romantic overtones supplied by the tall swaying palms. Have a good trip to Argentina.

Hello Emile! Beautiful work here with natural looking colors. The repeating pattern of tall and short palms is well seen. I might crop the left edge a little to remove that dangling palm leave, but otherwise it's perfect.

Bonjour, mon ami Emile,
Lieu paradisiaque s'il en est ! Doux rêve souvent évoqué. Tous les ingrédients sont réunis pour avoir envie de tout abandonner pour s'envoler et se poser sur cette merveilleuse plage.
Une très belle photographie qui fait saliver.

Olá Emile,
Like a beautiful vision, the beach stretches out. the causeway connects the huts suspended on posts above the water. These palms are quite young, wasn't there a generation of palms wiped out by a hurricane. Superb composition, flawless execution.
Um abraço,

Hi Emile,
Astonishing that a quarter to ten this beautiful beach is still without visitors. Maybe they all have been at the party till long after midnight and are still in their bed. They don’t know what they miss.

have a good trip to the far Buenos Aires. Are you meeting any TE members there?
Excellent, pristine overview of the Juan Dolio beach. I believe that your POV is somewhere from a building beacuse I can't remember any hills in that area.

Hola Emile,
Bonito y típico paisaje caribeño, la perspectiva desde un punto de vista alto crea una mejor sensación de grandiosidad y muestras el lugar de una forma más completa, la luz y los colores son suaves y están bien equilibrados evitando de este modo fuertes cambios de contrastes, la playa parece fantástica, dan ganas de pasear y disfrutar de un buen día soleado.
Un saludo

Olá Emile, good POV and wonderful graphism from all the palmtrees, including the small ones on the sand. The blue tones of the BG work well for contrast. There's a very nice lazy atmosphere that makes me dream with holidays, when looking at this image.
Happy thanksgiving with your son and family,
