Mer,soleil, beateaux et palmiers...

Bonne journée,

This is a place I allways wanted to visit.
And in a sailing boat as I think you did.
The photo is good at late afternoon light.

Bonjour, mon amie Elzbieta,
C'est bien de nous montrer une telle prise de vue, cela permet de nous évader, de ręver ŕ des endroits paradisiaques, idylliques. Cela nous change du temps gris et triste que nous avons en ce moment.
Cela donne une envie folle d'aller se baigner !!!
Trčs beau résultat.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hi Elzbieta,
lovely beach with palm trees, well for composition these coloursful boats, nice blue for water ... i'm agree, a real paradise !

Une photo, Elzbieta, qui nous fait ręver de vacances dans un si beau pays. Il ne manque rien pour y passer un agréable séjour : la mer avec des couleurs incroyables, les palmiers, le sable fin et les bateaux.
Jacques

Uch Ty, nie było Cię, wróciłaś i drażnisz ludzi widoczkami... Gdy u nas najpodlejsza od lat zima :(
Słodkie i cieplutkie, aż musiałem zdjąć bluzę :D.
Buziaki

Judging from the position of the shadows this was taken in very strong light, but the colours have come out beautifully. Very well composed. Paradise indeed.
Kath

Witaj Elzbieta,
Wonderful place,
The colors and light are amazing and the composition is perfect.
Congratulations. Uğur

Hi Elzbieta,
You have reason, it is an image of the paradise, very well caught in your setting. I like it his light and his shades, and the beautiful elements that we can see, with the palms aside and the ships to the other side, and a magnificent sky that gives a great beauty to this set.
Fantastic shot.
Regards,
Josep

Witaj, Elu!
No i juz wiem, czym była spowodowana Twoja dłuższa nieobecność.... Piękne miejsce, słoneczne i bajkowe w swych kolorach. Podoba mi się kompozycja ze skrawkiem plaży i cumami uwiązanymi do palm. Rzeczywiście, jak w raju!
pozdrowienia,
Grzesiek

Hello Elzbieta,
If there is a paradise on earth, it must not be very far away from there... Fantastic colors and delicious light invite us to come into the image and stay for a while. I think I would have searched another point of view to avoid cutting the boats on the left.
Best regards, Christian

Hi Elzbieta,
Indeed a paradaisical shot. I like the way you controlled the strong light here and kept down the glare. The leaning trees really balance and enhance the frame, while your cropping on the left is well executed in an artistically pleasing way. Good clarity of detail and a well chosen exposure level. Well captured.
John

Hi, Elzbieta. The palm trees in the foreground directly give an exotic touch to your picture. They also create depth. The two colourful boats in the foreground create contrast with the bigger boats in the background. The light is agreeable. All this makes a very good image.

Hello Elzbieta,
Mnhamm! So good to have a bit of warm and nice weather at this time of the yer that the rain has been falling and then some grey days here in Lisboa.
The view is fantastic with the boats standing on the still water, the colours of this welcoming sea, the typical palm trees...
TFS a bit of warm weather with us.
Cheers.
Paulo

For sure you got yourself in little look into the paradise in this one Elzbieta. A well made compo with fine details - what a place.

Hi Elzbieta, long time no see here at TE and starting with this gorgeous polish winter image :)
I just can imagina how much you have enjoyed this trip. The composition is perfect. You would be amazed what a circular polarizing filter would do to this shot. Try it out next time. Slight tilt to the right that could be easily be fixed.

Hi Elzbieta - I can relate to such a midwinter tropical experience - and it indeed is lovely. And your image shows us that in a very nice way....beautiful light, a tropical beach, boats and the promise of a trip on the sea. Lovely and beautiful work which makes me wanna go back to Bahia!
Have a fine weekend,
Bert

I like the colour to the sea and great details too. Very nice capture of the sea and the beach.

Elzbieta Hello, This is exactly the kind of tropical scene I need before the beginning of spring. Very beautiful and inviting. Well done and best regards! Danilo

Lovely view of the beach and the sea, that has such a pleasing colour. The palm trees are wonderfully placed at the right hand side and so are the boats at the other side. The light is very fine too. Great shot, well done!
