Hi Enrique,
This is a really nice image, with pure colors and outstanding clarity. But I like most the variety of lines: the branches, the shade, the horizon and the hill overimpose to create a great effect (great POV). Nice work, thanks for sharing!

Enrique,
Great compo !! It looks like some kind of mutant prehistoric animal walking on the beach. Catalin is right, the variety of lines is terrific. The strong shadow makes is what really makes this shot an eye opener.

Olá Enrique, you got a very beautiful image with this manglar. The colors are very attractive and we can feel well the paradise atmosphere. The dof is perfect and I like the composition with the shadow and all the sky, but I would like to see the end of the branch at right of the image, as well (just a detail though).
Have a nice day,
Ricardo

Hello Enrique,

nice shot, in a fantastic place. The colours and the light are very nice, and the tree at upclose give a good DOF to the pic. Good job.

TFS. Sergio.

Hola Enrique,
este manglar tumbado sobre la playa parece un turista tomando el sol. El efecto que crea su sombra en la arena es muy gráfico, rompe con los tonos tan claros de la parte baja de la imagen.
el tronco y las ramas tienen mucho detalle, y por supuesto, el fondo con el mar y la espuma de las olas, la montaña verde y el cielo azul son una maravilla, nos ofrecen un paisaje idílico.
Muy bonita foto amigo mío.
Una abraçada,
Josep

Enrique. I like this shot with the deep blue sky and tha deep black shadow on the beach. I think that you may have another picture with this image - if the sky were to be cropped out and you concentrated on the tree then you would have another good shot.

Hi Enrique. Here we have a lot of dead trees laying on our beaches but the background is not as exotic as yours. I love the textures captured in the tree. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Excellent composition with the diagonals of both the tree and its shadow. Good focus with excellent detail captured on the trunk.

Hi Enrique,
I love this composition. The placement of the tree stump, its shadow, and the blue sky are all appealing. Looks like you had good vacation in the DR based on your postings. Best regards. Danilo

Crisp and powerful... a very interesting composition Enrique which is made strong by these amazing southern colours and the crisp shadow cast by the manglar. It evokes many associations...

Hola amigo!

Wow, I am impressed of the sharpness and the clearness of this photo as well of the nice and natural colours.

The leading lines of the tree into the sea are amazing.
Excellent work file mou.

Muy buena toma Enrique, si me hubieras llamado nos vamos los dos a tomar fotos por la costa norte del pais.
Esta muy bien captada y me gusta mucho la forma del tronco seco con el contraste del azul del mar y el cielo, te toco un dia soleado bien lindo. Muy buena composicion y POV.
Gracias por compartirla.
Abrazos.

Hola Enrique:
Una bonita fotorafía con colores y luces muy buenos, y con un gran sentido de la profundidad.
Es bonito el juego de la sombra con el árbol.
Un saludo: Javi

Hello Enrique,

The shadow of manglar is splendid as at least its body. They are creating beautiful graphics. Foam of sea waves, the green mountain at blurry background with blue sky is wonderful. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Parbo

Hola Enrique,
A lovely one in terms of conditions and exposure, however here I'd have gone for a horizontal framing to avoid cutting the branch and show more to the right. That bein said, I have seen worst places than this one and it brightens my november day very well ;-))
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hola Enrique:

LO que daria yo ahora por estar tomando el sol en una playa como esta...

Hi Enrique
The POV on the old tree is beautifull. The light also is nice with the shadow on the beach. A very interesting picture for the graphism.

Very simple yet interesting beach composition. The only thing I would maybe change is cropping some of the sky. Other than that I like this very much. Keep em' coming!

Best regards,

Rob
