The colors are beautiful, and the column of rain, right at the horizon, that provides a spectacular connection between the sea and the sky, is a also a good element to focus our attention in this almost flat scenery. Well done!

Olá Gonçalo
Não sou muito apreciador deste tipo de efeitos de filtros, mas reconheço que tens feito umas imagens muito atractivas. Esta ficaria melhor se não estivesse tão escura à direita.
Cumprimentos

Olá Gonçalo,

simple e bonita composição. Gosto muito do degradê de cores, do céu até a água. Uma imagem que traz bastante reflexão. Ótimo trabalho!
Abraço,
Carlos

I love the colours you mixed in this shot: thre green of the sea is contrasting well with the sky in fire. The clouds with their shapes are catching the eye.
Well done.

Hello Goncalo
I know I will repeat myself but the beautiful results that that filter produces is awesome. The dark clouds ovelapping the sea gives quite a dimension to the shot.

hello Goncalo,
I like this photo a lot, the wide expanse of the water and textures of the clouds are just the right scene for the coloured filters, since there is nothing to divert the attention. the colours certainly add drama to the scene, very interesting result.

regards,
Kristine

Cheers,Braca

riclopes (33131) 2009-01-06 2:34

wow, isto é que é minimalismo, Gonçalo. Nem barcos, nem pescadores, nem gaivotas para nos distrair. Só mar e céu num show de luz e cor. Dá para limpar a cabeça...e descobrir a chuva no horizonte ao fim de algum tempo. Gosto.
um abraço,
ricardo

Olá Gonçalo.
Il n'y a que la mer et le ciel mais ils font une excellente photo.
J'aime ce ciel tourmenté et ses couleurs sublimes. La mer est d'un beau vert comme on peut en voir par mauvais temps.
Amicalement,
Jacques

gracious (20017) 2009-01-06 10:30

Ola Goncalo,
This is the most beautiful colouration of nature at it's best!
very powerful on the sky goes well against the calm sea indeed!

cheers

cfreire (11667) 2009-01-06 11:12

Oi, Gonçalo
Ficou muito bonita esta foto com a aplicação deste filtro; acentuou um aspecto de dramaticidade que o momento apresenta. Gostei da intensa dualidade das cores. Bonita mostra. Abraço, Consuelo

anducina (8131) 2009-01-06 11:38

Hi Goncalo,
Dramatic scene, I like the simple compo and the unconventional colors. It gives me a feeling of the beginning of the world--sky, sea, strange light, loneliness...
TFS,
Andreea

shevchenko (10072) 2009-01-06 21:15

There is a lot of drama in the stormy sky. The orange sky contrasts very well with the petrol blue colour of the water.

BWJ (1775) 2009-01-07 18:46

Hello Goncalo,
This is a beautiful late afternoon composition with the fiery, vibrant sky contrasting with the blue water. The lighting is gorgeous and the atmosphere of the approaching storm is clearly present. Splendid work!

Ola Goncalo,
The three photos concerning the same subject
are your best in my opinion..Marvellous colours,like an explosion,your imagination
did the best..The horizon looks perfect and
human eye follows the vivid line..
An excellent picture of an excellent painter

stego (22448) 2009-01-09 12:55

Olá Gonçalo,
A luz e as cores estão fantásticas! Por este andar qq. dia peço-te emprestado esse filtro. :D Mas claro que não é só o filtro! Gosto especialmente do verde do mar, algo surpreendente pelo contraste que faz com o céu cor-de-laranja.
Um abraço, José.
