Watching the sunset, a photo from Aquitaine, West

Photographer's Note

Cap de l'Homy is a beach with behind the sand dunes 10 houses, a restaurant, a mini market and a big campîng site. The distance from the nearest village is 7 kilometers. You have to climb a 10 meters high dune to discover the ocean and the beach. At sunset, everybody tries to be seated on some of the benches at the top of the dune to watch the golden moving sea.

Technical data: 200mm lens to get the sharp silhouettes and widest aperture leading to a low depth of field and so the blurred lighted background.
1995 scanned slide

Salut Claude.
Moi je l'aime bien celle ci, la lumière est puissante, la couleur assez impréssionnante et le cadrage parfait.
Bravo.

Hello Claude,

It's not easy for a perfect image to make of a scanned image.
this is very spectacular through the strong colors and the dark silhouettes of the peoples as contrast.
Excellent captured and composed.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

bonjour Claude
pour admirer de si belles couleurs, je m'assoirais volontiers aussi sur ce banc!J'aime beaucoup ces silhouettes noires qui se détachent sur les couleurs dorées et scintillantes.Par contre, je me demande si avec plus de profondeur de champs, tu n'aurais pas obtenu un scintillement plus lumineux, je ne suis pas sûre que l'eau floutée donne le meilleur résultat, mais c'est surement une question de goûts.
Amitiés
Pascale

Bonjour Claude,
J'aime bien le résultat, l'ambiance, avec ces silhouettes qui se détachent bien. Il y a comme un air de vacances, de sérénité.
