Fishing in Collioure Photo

Photographer’s Note

Maybe you have been one of the many thousands that visit this little village, Collioure, in the deep of South of France in the summer.
If so, you will know that this little beach is overpopulated by people enjoying one of the usually sunny days you will find down here in the summer.

But in November the lone fisherman have the whole beach for himself. While he wait for his catch he can enjoy the view to the church Notre Dame des Anges where an old light tower today have become a bell tower ;-)

makes me want to go there...

Stunning ambiance, and I admit that your color mood is very well managed.

A must see image for sure

Hello Jack,

I see, once again, from this photo that you are a marine view lover like me. I want to make a general consideration, which maybe you share, normally people like seascapes only shot in the good season, with bright intense colours and strong light. But here you demonstrate that you may have a fine marine scenery even with bad weather and dim light. I mean there is a fascinating mood in this composition, the autumn sea has a melancholy atmosphere that a true sea lover can appreciate.
All the best,
Donato

Hello Jack, I was not pleased to visit the places, but I prefer of much the beach in November with the tumult of the tourists who bind themselves on the seaside in July-August, it is a sight all in dynamism because of mobility of the waves, and I like enough the sight of the fisherman alone vis-a-vis the sea, sincerely .............................Bonjour Jack, je n’ai pas eu le plaisir de visiter les lieux, mais je préfère de beaucoup la plage en novembre au tumulte des touristes qui s’agglutinent sur le bord de mer en juillet-août, c’est une vue tout en dynamisme du fait de la mouvance des vagues, et j’aime assez la vue du pêcheur seul face à la mer, bien amicalement

Hello Jack,

Un pêcheur qui semble attendre la bonne prise. Il faut dire qu'il a de quoi patienter avec ce décor superbe. Un cadrage qui laisse la place au regard de cette personne pour s'évader en attendant que le poisson morde à l'hameçon.
Bien vu.
