oh, très jolie photo ! Avez vous ajouté un peu de saturation aux couleurs des voiles ?

Nice repetition of shapes, both the nature and the man made are all triangles here. Nice of side cluster of boats balaced with the other of side cluster of islands.

The islands look a bit oversharpened

I know why you've posted this image.
To calm us down. To stop and smell the...water.
And enjoy, enjoy, enjoy...
Thanks Jean on behalf of all cholerics among us.

Jean Louis,

I very much enjoy seeing these photos from the South of France during the winter. This photo has very nice composition with "Les Deux Freres" balancing and giving perspective to the sailors.

I'm surprised to see the sea so calm. Especially when compared to another photo you recently posted showing rather rough seas and the children going out for lessons- I thought that's the way it is in the winter. With sailing it's either too much or too little. :-)

I guess it depends on the weather, but, in general, is there a fair amount of sailing now?

TFS.
Kind regards,
Randy

Hi Jean Louis,
Full of triangles, "two brothers" and the sails of the boats. The height of the sails divided by the horizon line look equal to the two brothers. Very well seen and composed.
Regards
Bulent
