Hello Stefano,

This is just like a proof of a well known motto "Simple is Beatiful". I very much liked the simplicity of this shot, nothing redundant here. Great vision and a pure photography. Fabulous shot. Congratulations,

Suleyman

Ciao Stefano,
What a dashing and enigmatic landscape minamalism.
Fab and slightly surreal storytelling here.
Best regards from Rotterdam,
Bert

Hi Stefano

The island seems to fly over the sand, as a mirage. Very simple picture, but attractive bu the human presence (thet seem to put nets for fishing).

hello Stefano
the other side of my own picture.I don't know if the light was much better, but you have got a nice glare with the band of water crossing the sand, and an interesting scene with the fishermen.Excellent!
Regards
Pascale

Welcome!
You've come to completely different weather conditions than I do, but the idea for a show we make same.
I like that there is no horizon, the island emerges from the mist. Difficult place to photograph because it is very well known and visited. You handled fantastically, even though the picture is not stunning and there is a knock on my knees,
certainly gets attention.
With respect Monika

Ciao Stefano,
Che bello ! Non sapevo che c'era un'altro monte-isola accanto al Mont St Michel !
Excellente composizione con l'isola che non sembra reale ma semplicemente posata sull'immagine !
Buon effetto grafico creato dal grupo di pescatori che sembrano ammirare il monte.
Il monte e loro fanno l'equilibrio nelle linee orizzontali della spiaggia.
Ottimo lavoro.
Ciao.
Marie-Louise.

Nice shot, almost surreal as if an island is just popping up in the middle of a desert. I like he spots of colour on the clothing as well in what is otherwise a fairly colourless image.
