Photographer's Note
Today I’ve decided to post another image of my home city – Seixal.
I hope you don’t get bored by looking at boats again ;-)
But I’m not having to much time for travelling to other places so I only can offer you images of my city.
And when I walk in Seixal there’s something that always attract my vision - The bay and the boats.
Maybe this is a curable decease…but for now I don’t have the antidote ;-)

Nice sunset ladnscape here. I love the warm colours and the relfections of light in the water. The composition with the scattered boats is very attractive too.
Well done!

Hello Teresa,
I like this photo, there is a very nice and calm feeling about it. I like the warm colors and the simple composition. Very nice work.
About your note. I hope I never get cured from the ocean and life around it. A few years back I embarcked on a sailing trip with a fullrigger, and my father sayed "This is the worst mistake you'll make, once the ocean is in your vanes it never leave..."
(Sorry I got a bit side tracked...) Again very nice photo.

Olá Teresa,
No te preocupes si por ahora no puedes viajar, las fotos que "ves" y haces de tu ciudad son muy buenas, y no todo tienen que ser siempre paisajes. Estas fotos con agua y barcas las creas con maestría, me gustan mucho.
El color y la luz de ésta son espléndidos, con este casi monotono en rosa. Fantásticas las barcas y sus reflejos.
Buen trabajo.
Un cordial saludo,
Josep

Hi Teresa - a pretty shot in your unmistakable style, my friend, in delicate composition and colors; the boats have unusual shapes together with their respective reflections. Best regards, Daniel

Superb picture Teresa! Wonderful soft colours with ripply water. The silhouetted boats are marvellous & the effect is accentuated because of vertical format.
Well done !

Hi Theresa,
I like the the way you've framed your compo with the line of three boats moving diagonally across the frame and you've captured lovly color and reflections
While there is some virture in seeing an area from an outsider's eyes, I enjoyed francisco's view of San Diego, I quite convinced that the people that can best tesch us about an area are the people who live there, an insider's view.
Regards, Pat

Very nice composition of these boats doubled by their shadows. I like the colours and the mood there.

Olá Teresa,
De facto já tenho visto tantas fotografias deste género e inclusivamente deste mesmo local aqui no TE, mas não tão recentemente e na realidade a tua doença é perfeitamente compreensivel e está em sintonia com muitos de nós. Esta água calma e os barcos são uma excelente combinação para fotografias e constituem uma constante atracção. Além disso, consegues criar ambientes algo mágicos e irreais que faz das tuas fotografias, imagens únicas e originais. A composição vertical das silhuetas sob esta luminosidade especial e tonalidades está muito boa. Para já podes continuar...mas não abuses! :) (estou a brincar...).
Beijinhos e bom fim de semana,
Ricardo

Hi Teresa
Another beautiful photo.
The colour is magnificant as is the subject.
Extremely well spotted and taken.
There is always a sense of peace in still water photos.
Great POV and DOF.
The colour and the light are simply delightful
Well done
Regards
Peter

Olá Teresa,
Acho que foi Dostoievski quem escreveu algo assim como: "pinta tua terra e serás universal". E você tem o "olho" e a senssibilidade para nos mostrar de diferentes maneras a simplicidade ou detalhes sorprendentes.
Gosto muito da composicáo e cores. Eu tenho ouvido que muitos portos tem asociada una certa sensacáo de tristeza(?)... ou quando menos de esperar. Encontro isso en esta foto.
Un grande beijo e un ótimo final de semana,
Carlos

Parabéns,

Bonjour Teresa,
une photo bien cadrée, la dominante de couleur presque unforme te permettait de la latitude.
Le ciel est un poil surexposé, mais fermer davantage une solution , ou alors, obturer au 1/100 ce qui diminuait les risque de 'bougé'.
Les barques alors auraient été moins détaillées, ce qui n'était pas souhaitable. Peut-être aussi l'emploi d'un filtre dégrddé gris léger.
Bien à toi.
Daniel
