Olá Fernando,
Imagen interesante con una luz especial y un día bastante gris. Buena definición, colores suaves por la escasa luz solar, y encuadre excelente.
Un lindo paisaje y buen detalle el de la barca en medio de la composición.
Buena foto.
Saludos,
Josep

Hi friend Fernando,
Your composition and sharpness are very well, a pity of the weather the cloudy sky gives a sad view, certainly through the dark part of the trees to left! But the small boat make the picture very attractive.
Your note as well as always very perfectly.
Greetings from Belgium,
John.

The little boat in the endless green and grey makes a heroic impression. Well composed and realized.

Hey Fernando. You're correct when you call the shot hazy in the title. I wonder if upping the contrast wouldn't help get rid of some of the flatness. tfs Fernando.

Olá Fernando

Wonderful mood & atmosphere from the overcast weather, which has given soft, diffused, light. I like the inclusion of the boat. Felicitations!

Bonjour mon ami Fernando,
Il existe de par le monde des paradis perdus entre l'Ancien et le Nouveau Monde.
Ici, encore, une très belle vue de ce paradis terrestre.
Merci de nous montrer d'autres endroits étonnants (liens).
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hello Fernando, what I like the most here is the boat. It does look so small compare with the magnificent woods on the background. Very good depth. Even though it was not a shine day, that is not a problem for a good photographer like you. You captured all the greatness that nature has. TFS. Gabriel

Olá Fernando,
I like the tiny boat in the great calm sea, the threatening weather gives the sense of unease that it could blow up a storm quickly. Nice sharp detail, I tried Stephen's suggestion about contrast in the WS. Let me know what you think

Hi Fernando, A beautiful shot with an amazing relax tone. You have well captured the mood. The small boat is an essential to decorate the scene. A well taken clear and sharp picture. Well done.

Hi Fernando,
The grey sky with the low clouds is a good contrast to your usual postings.I like the mood and the graphism and the little boat is an essential detail in your compo.

Olá amigo Fernando,
Umas imagem muito bonita e que tansmite uma enorme sensação de tranquilidade.
Perfeito controlo da luminosidade num dia tão "cinzentão".
gosto da inclusão do pequeno barco nesta imensidão de água.
Um beijo

Boa noite Fernando,
A sua nota fez-me relembrar o maravilhoso cozido que comi por aqui...que delícia (ainda não jantei)!
Bonita paisagem desta lagoa, sob um dia 'feioco' que coincide com o seu aniversário. Sinto falta do sol, mas o enquadramento é perfeito e a luminosidade está muito boa. Agrada-me a atmosfera causada pela nebulosidade, oferecendo-nos o efeito das camadas cinzentas ao longe, que fica sempre muito bem (à falta de sol...). O barco é obviamente um bom acrescento. Parabéns por mais uma excelente nota cheia de informação e partilha, homenageando mais um(a) membro(a) e oferecendo uma série de fotos complementares em ws. Muito obrigado e um bom resto de noite para si,
Ricardo

Very good sharpness for the line of trees in spite of the low light and lack of colors. The more muted or blurred background make a good contrast with the foreground.

All the best,

Emmanuel

A very different mood from your usual photos Fernando. Despite the bad conditions you have still captured a clear, sharp photo. I especially like the detail of the little boat.

Hi Fernando,
A sharp and clear shot, even though the weather did not cooperate with a better sky. You captured a more solemn mood here and I like the positioning of the boat. There is a brooding presence here, as if a storm is ready to break. Well seen and captured.

Hi Fernando...
The simple things in life often proves to be the most lasting ones... I think that is valid for photographs too!
If so this one will qualify for a long life... A few elements nicely put together, making up a simple but beautiful image!
Greetings,
