Hi!
What a lovely Cumulonimbus cloud!
Fine light and colors.
The FG is not so interesting, but a good composition.
TFS!
Best regards, Jon.

I don't think a note is really needed here. An incredible sunrise. I think cropping out the bottom part and bringing the water to the "edge" of the pic might look good too.

noborders (14199) 2007-12-07 15:16

Je ne suis pas une fan des sunrise-sunsets, mais ici j'aime beaucoup la perspective qui semble un peu tourner vers la droite, et les nuages aux couleurs si étonnantes vers la gauche...
Très beau, bien vu !
A +, Cath.

Salut José
Le ciel a des couleurs magnifiques qui se reflètent aussi dans la mer. Le ponton ajoute de l'intérêt et entraine le regard vers l'horizon...

Bonjour José,
aujoud'hui, j'ai fait pas mal de critiques de jolis ciels et en voilà encore un à épingler dans ma collection non seulement pour la beauté de ses couleurs mais aussi pour son aspect assez singulier.
Une photo très bien cadrée.
Amicalement.
Daniel.

Hello, Jose -

Great use of curves, diagonals and lighting here. The heavy light on one side of the sky is balanced by the dock extending from the right foreground. Well composed!

Abrazos,
Dan

Hi Jose,
Indeed, not much to say here, the image speaks for it self. The colours have created a nice mood, but most of all you had a very good exposure here with lots of detail and still a wide variety of colours...really good work..!!!
Have a nice weekend, Henk

ribeiroantonio (21891) 2007-12-07 17:01

Por vezes, vale a pena levantar cedo, não é? As cores estão muito bonitas e combinadas com esta composição simples criaram uma imagem linda. Gosto também do domínio da pouca luz.
António

Cormac (26449) 2007-12-07 17:02

Wow, fantastic clouds and a really amazing colour! This is nature's light show, shown so beautifully. I like the way you used the pier in the foreground to give this a sense of place and depth. Well done!

adores (15493) 2007-12-07 18:05

Olá José!
Parece que tenho andado bem atrasada nos comentários.
Isso é que foi levantar cedo. A foto está excelente, pela composição, pelas cores e especialmente pelo reflexo da luz do sol naquela nuvem enorme - o efeito está fabuloso. Muito bem conseguida e mais uma vez uma foto diferente da República Dominicana.
Bom fim de semana!

Wanda1 (10935) 2007-12-07 20:26

Hi Jose,
Beautiful soft colours and light, and I like the swish of pink clouds. Nice angle and I like that the pier is leading us into the shot creating nice depth. A lovely image.
Regards
Wanda

Olá José,
Belíssimas cores, com uma encantadora pouca luminosidade. Que nuvem fantástica, passado o furacão, ela na sua vez dar o seu espetáculo - só de beleza, no caso.
Esta luminosidade madrugadora me fez lembrar das vezes em que não dormi para esperar a hora de ver cometas, acabando por emendar a vigília ao resto do dia e presenciar esta hora matutina, naquele friozinho típico da serra, em Belo Horizonte. Mas isso já tem muito tempo...
Um abraço,
MC

kiwi_explorer (12195) 2007-12-08 1:09

Hi Jose,
Nice line created by the walkway ... effectively leads ones focus towards that lovely colorful sky. Wonderfully captured and composed. Well done! tfs and have a nice weekend.
Cheers,
Renier

riclopes (32971) 2007-12-08 2:01

Bom dia José, pores do sol e céus de sonho pedem sempre notas poéticas tiradas da net :))))) Gosto muito desta. Aquela nuvem rosa a fazer uma curva apertada no céu está um espectáculo e a combinação com esta diagonal resultou numa composição de grande dinamismo apesar de isto ser supostamente uma cena que respira tranquilidade. Adoro a ligação dos 2 cantos ao longo da diagonal, com uma espécie de nó ali na zona do barco. Simples e muito bonita.
Bom fim de semana,
rcardo

Emile (19917) 2007-12-08 8:18

Hola Jose.
Por supuesto que lo mas impresionante de tu foto es la magnifica nube con los colores de un bello amanecer, la presencia del puente te da una buena perspectiva. Me gustan mucho los colores que conseguiste.
Felicitaciones.
Abrazos y que pases un buen fin de semana junto a tu adorable familia.

lucasgalodoido (16597) 2007-12-08 9:48

Olá José,
com certeza um belo por-do-sol, com umas tonalidades fantásticas. Ótimo trabalho.
Parabéns e Abraço!

paura (38278) 2007-12-08 12:53

José,
O equlilíbrio das cores está muito bom aqui. A composição está muito boa. Essa sua lente de 14 é um portento, nao?

Abraço

Paulo

xuaxo (5705) 2007-12-08 13:43

Olá José
Não há muito a dizer. É um daqueles monentos únicos que vale a pena registar. Ainda bem que estavas lá para o fazer e ainda bem que resolveste mostrar-nos esta beleza.
Um abraço,
F

jaywalker (12190) 2007-12-08 23:39

Hi Jose, A very well composed photo with the side of the pier in the corner, the colour tones are superbly blended &, that cloud formation is excellent & adds some atmosphere, I have just read # Norte # note & it sum’s the photo up very well, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

ChrisJ (70153) 2007-12-09 0:34

Hi Jose

A marvellous colour contrast beween the red & blue, in this superb sunset. Tfs!

Colors and calm water looks amazing

"just" a sunrise!? It's beautiful Jose. That pink cloud is amazing and the wooden jetty leads the eye right to it. Well done

Olá José,
fine colour combination and good usage of rules of third for the line of the horizon. The pier helps for depth.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

elmec (12194) 2007-12-10 13:34

Hello Josè,
impressive and very well composed shot, with the pier leading to the sea and adding a very good sense of depth. The colours are fantastic and the clouds gorgeous. Very well done!
Tfs and best wishes.

Benedict (7062) 2007-12-10 21:04

it looks like a gloomy sunrise to me and complements the tranquil environment of the place. simple but very interesting work you got here, jose.
benedict

axiotea (16073) 2007-12-11 4:14

salut José
le ponton fait un bon premier plan entrainant l'œil sur les réflexions colorées et le mouvement des nuages qui donnent une un impact dynamique à l'image. PDV bien choisi et bonne profondeur.
Um umbraço

Standa (1861) 2007-12-11 11:50

Hi Jose,
the light here is amazing! Not only red sky which is realy superb but I like too much soft light in foreground. Calm and very romantic picture doesn´t need a note!
Regards,
Stanislav

Atousa (3434) 2007-12-11 21:04

Salam Jose,
Lovely atmosphere n sky here! I like the red light which seems to haul the clouds to brighten the sky .
Great shot.
Regards,
AtousA

gildasjan (23702) 2007-12-12 0:02

Bonjour José
On a l'impression que ce nuage en feu sort de l'océan.Les couleurs de cette composition sont superbes.
Bonne journée à toi.
Amicalement
Gildas

pboehringer (770) 2007-12-12 22:03

Jose,
a very impressive shot with the pastel colors of this gigantic cloud playing with the first day light and giving some quite amazing reflections on the sea. A very inteligent and engaging use of the foreground to raise the shot to a high quality image.
It seems to me that you didn't use a polarizing filter for this shot and I try to imagine the impact of it on the sky and cloud.
Cheers, Peter

trekks (14266) 2007-12-13 7:15

Jose
Using f/9 for deep DOF, you get sharp details of jetty and clouds, the soft image is displayed well, with warm romantic color tone across the clouds. I particular like the diagonal composition of jetty line. Vaguely you can see the blue green water color. Well done. TFS

Herquin (4498) 2007-12-13 9:04

Bonjour José,
c'est tout bonnement superbe cette juxtaposition du pont et du nuage , l'un prolonge l'autre . Une belle composition .
Et que dire des couleurs qui sont superbes ?
Amitiés.
Christian .

edytungkal (4519) 2007-12-13 16:58

Picture is telling the story, you dont need to write a note for this outstanding sunrise. We can see the gorgeous sunrise colours on the sky with nice lonely port on fg. Well done Jose, i like this shot alot.

Stepan (27175) 2007-12-14 23:42

Classical but I must admit it is really well working. The visual imapct and the mood are really strong. You were lucky to enjoy such a moment.
Stéphane

vincz (19039) 2007-12-15 0:56

Une image de reve avec ces couleurs si fantastiques sur ce nuage a la forme si etonnante. J'aime beaucoup comment toute l'image se retoruve tientee de cette couleur rouge-rose. Tres beau, tres tres agreable. J'aime beaucoup.

delkoo (34264) 2007-12-15 1:22

bonjour josé
tu as capté une lumiere vraiment interessante qui donne une ambiance rosée tres belle, le ponton est bien placé pour une bonne perspective.

JCG (25233) 2007-12-15 2:46

Bonjour José,

I am filled with wonder by the form and the beauty at this cloud. The soft colors are really very pleasant. One would believe oneself in Venice although I do not know. The photograph is well built and I like much the poetic environment of the image. Thank you Jose.

With all my friendships and a good WE,

Jean-Charles

xkolba (3188) 2007-12-15 10:53

Hello Jose,
This is fantastic sunrise picture, with superb colors and lighting. Yours composition with fragment of harbour and huge cloud in centre is excellent also,
Thank for sharing,
Regards,
Maciek

josepmarin (33785) 2007-12-15 11:08

Olá José,
este es un lugar que quiero conocer algún día, es una maravilla. Tú lo has captado en un momento de luz del amanecer y con unos colores en las nubes realmente bellos.
Las diagonales de la pasarela y las verticales de los postes trabajan muy bien el efecto geométrico, y dan un bonito grafismo a la compo.
Un abrazo,
Josep

batalay (20876) 2007-12-16 19:29

Hello José,

worldcitizen (2253) 2007-12-17 18:16

Olá Jose,
Beautiful capture of this cotton-candy cloud! The way it spreads out into the sky is magical. Nice composition in the foreground with the pier leading us out to the water. It looks so tranquil - and much warmer than it is here right now!!

emilbo (9337) 2007-12-17 18:20

Salut Jose!
Magnifique coucher de soleil et très fascinant ce gros nuage dans le ciel qui donne un effet spécial, on sent la tranquilité. Excellente composition et merveilleuses couleurs.
Bravo!... et bonne semaine,
