Belle queste vele impazzite, inclinate a caso, sullo sfondo blu del cielo e del mare.

A fine summer mood here Polo with lots of activities on the lake. Good use of the format - nice overall blue and white.

Ciao Paolo

I like the repetition of yachts on the horizon & the various different angles. Good graphism also, of the white sails against the dark blue mountain range in the bg. Excellent sharpness & contrast. Tfs!

I like this, Paolo, very intresting contrast of shapes here between the clouds and the triangular sails with different orientations...

Cheers

Hi Paolo,
Nice those two colours, blue and white. In the clouds and on the sails, great contrast, but also a good pov with the mountains in the back...good work.

Almost monotone blue. Very good image of the sailing boats. Interesting, and very eye catching how the sails are all at different angles. I like how you have captured perfectly all the ripples in the water. Well done

Buon Giorno Paolo,
Beautiful blue & white picture with the white sails being balancesd by the puffy white clouds. Well done!!

That's my idea of a perfect day!! In spite of the lack of waves, lake sailing can be very challenging with the mountains compressing and speeding the wind.

SAG, Pat

Ciao Paolo,
Una iniziatica danza sconosciuta sul lago Maggiore sotto la sorveglianza dei cumuli nel cielo. Molto una bella composizione in blu ed in bianco.
Bravo
