Hi Pablo,
Great view over the water with the very important, life-saving buoy. Its colour stand out nicely against the blue background and it's well placed in the composition. The light enhances too. I like the peaceful atmosphere in this photo. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Pablo,

A nice scenery of the harbour of Trondheim, of the mountain in the background and the lifesaver in the foreground which is an eye catcher. The point of view is giving depth to the photo. It is getting a good luminosity which brings out the colors. Well done, have a nice day.

Nice contrast between the blue water and the safety ring.

You going from the most Norwegian of all elements the "fjell" to the second "sjøen" the yellow iron make a valuble color component in the picture otherwise a true blue fresh image.

Very nice blue colors here. For the life buoy, I remember seeing many of them during my different stops in several harbours around the Baltic in 2005, and there were always in good conditions, which made me think that thefts and vandalizings were less frequent in this region.

All the best,

Emmanuel

Hi Pablo,
great water diagonal crossing the image, is an excellent POV that emphasizes the great volume and force of the blue ones and moved waters.
Excellent clearness in the image and great depth, right until arriving at mountains from snow-covered tops, is brilliant !
The fantastic brightness of the colors, mainly of blue of the water and the sky prints a special enchantment to the photography, and in first plane and emphasizing: the great floater! Subtle and intelligent detail.

Un saludo, Jordi

Hello Pablo
La Norvège est un pays d'eau et c'est vrai que la présence de ces bouées m'avait marqué.
Une belle réalisation avec ce rouge et ce blanc qui vient bien se démarqué sur le bleu de l'eau.
Du bon travail!!

Hello Pablo,

Swimming in such waterways could be dangerous, they should restrictions by law and make safety to people. I must say the water does look tempting, looks clean and fresh.

Hi Pablo,
a familiar view as being born and grown up in a harbour city at the North Sea. I like the simple and eye-catching composition with the diagonal lines and the colour contrasts which helps to locate the main subject of the life saver. Excellent sharpness and clarity and I think a bit of the smell is included in all those three.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

• ChrisJ (55258)
• [2008-02-01 1:09]

Hi Pablo

A nice colour contrast, between the warm red of the lifebuoy / yellow support structure, & the cool blues of the sea & sky. Good sharpness & framing, using the rule of thirds. The fg diagonal adds dynamism. Tfs!

Hello Pablo,

Also your WS 'Canal view' get of my a great compliments.
The blue cold water and the small waves care for a wonderful picture, depth and perspective are very well.
But the vesta is here the great eye catcher.
Very well composition and colours.
Thanks for sharing.

Have a nice weekend,

Olá Pablo, also a very diferent one from your countryside landscapes. A refreshing blue one with the life saver as a protagonist, imposing its presence and making a nice color contrast. It's for sure the one I like more from the 3, for its simplicity, mountains seen in the distance and great quality, as usual, although I like the impact of the yellow elements in WS2.

I think that your note is very interesting but I do not think the shot is very interesting. It is focused and the color is fine and the horizon is level and the vertical is straight but the shot is blah, sorry.

Hi Pablo,

Beautiful and interesting series of photographs on this harbour site. I like before all this superb light which gives glare to the natural colors. This buoy attracts the eye well. Thank you for the additional photographs which supplement the subject well.

With all my friendships and a very good WE,

Wonderful varying tones of lovely blue colors are seen in this seaside landscape. The orange and white lifesaver adds beautiful contrasting color and great scale to this peaceful ocean view. The colors are very clear with wonderful sharpness to this Atlantic celebration in blue.

Les images sont belles et présentent toujours un intérêt manifeste.

Hi Pablo,
Possibly a lifesaver might not be enough to save one in these waters ... the cold waters might do more damage. Good off center positioning of the lifesaver in the image. Good image and color quality ... depth and contrast is also good. Well composed! tfs and have a nice weekend.
Cheers,

• plimrn (15178)
• [2008-02-02 12:20]

Hi Pablo,
Your three scenes give a good sense of the peaceful simplicity of this lovely harbor. In this one, the life bouy makes a good focal point and the snow on the mountains outlines the sky. The clarity of the gradient in the sky is also beautiful and I like the graphic way you orient us by saying, "...beyond that is Canada."
The bright yellow cleats make the focal point in the second and in the third, I particularly like classic wooden boats.

Hello Pablo,

Simple but interesting. Lifesavers can be very useful for people like me because of my low swimming skills. Interesting note with good information regarding the use of these devices. The image is clear, with nice colours and the subject well placed on the foreground. A pretty wide view of the water. Thanks Pablo.

Hi Pablo,
this is a composition simple and well organized, I like the lifeguard in FG with its red and white colors, that adds a nice contrast with the blue ones of the sea and of the sky.
Good opened angle in the setting, and excellent quality and depth field.
Good work, my friend.

Hello Pablo
I understand now, why the lifesaver in my photo, was a familiar subject to you ;)
The off centred buoy is well positioned and allowing us to see the harbour and mountains providing a nice BG, separated by the intense blue water. Light, colors and textures are fine too.

It's me again - hi!
I just wonder - is it the French or the Russian or sobody else that you salute along your coasts, hehe;-) Anyway, blue-white-red acts very appealing to many nations all over the world - there are so many flags with that colors.

I also like the two parallel slightly diag lines - proving the old rule that there's only one parallel line that can be drown through a point:-)

Hi Pablo, this is a good story. When you see something like a lifesaver next to the water, you don't normally give it a second thought. To save 1000 lives over 54 years though is pretty significant. The shot's a good one, showing off the life preserver well against that great blue background. I appreciated your workshop shots, especially #1. I guess I am partial to harbour shots. Great colour and detail in all of them.

Thanks, John
