Beautiful image. I love the golden glow and the sun peeking out from behind that large cloud. Lovely composition. TFS.

Congratulations Paolo.

Splendida composizione: cielo spettacolare e bel soggetto a riempire..

Ho provato a togliere 1,5 cm. dall'alto e (gusto personale) mi è apparsa ancora più suggestiva..

'Every cloud has a silver lining' -yours has not only a golden lining but also interesting foreground -I mean the sailing boat. Great colours and idyllic scene.

Hi Paolo,
your shot is fantastic. The warm light during the sunset is amazing. You got hold of the right moment. The clowds in front of the sun give the photo a dramatic atmosphere. And the silhouette rounds off a perfect shot.

hi Paolo,
when i see this shot,i remember a night i spendt in bora bora in a very old wooden boat,(friends i met casually)...so i saved a lot of money!!!!and spendt so marvellous moments.
I cant remember in which island is Fakarava.
i saw,tahiti,moorea,maupiti,huahine,bora bora...
my preference to Maupiti.very wild.

Great shot, Paolo. I like the way the cloud is lit up dramatically by the sun setting behind it. Very atmospheric. Also a good silhouette of the yacht. You've captured an idyllic scene in all your Polynesia photographs. Regards,
Ryno

This is a lovely sunset Paolo. Great colours in the clouds with the sun just behind them and a good composition of the boat and sea to sky. See why you got so many greenies.
BR,
Mark

Ciao Paolo
voglio complimentarmi con te per lo splendido scatto che hai voluto condividere con gli utenti di TE.
L'immagine è di un effetto incredibile e sottolinea come nella calma della barca ancorata ci sia, dietro, la tempesta in agguato. I caldi colori del tramonto alimentano la forza di questa foto.
