Hello Johannes,

Very beautiful place with such a dramatic element created by the rocks on the water. The view from this high point is very effective to show us a wide panorama of the beach and the horizon. Colours and sharpness are excellent. Thanks :-)

Bonjour Johannes
Un bon cliché avec une saturation des couleurs qui est très réussie et une bonne profondeur d'image. Celà sent bon les vacances.
Merci pour le partage et bonne journée.

Hallo Johannes. Eine vorbildlich komponierte Idylle. Das Photo ist sehenswert. Ein leerer Strand. Wirklich ein Gegensatz. Gut gesehen und photographisch realisiert. Gruß, Wolfgang.

Johannes,

I really like this composition. teh shoreline works as alead line for me (was this the plan?) The foreground has nice colour interest and the whole scene is pleasing. Well done.

Hi Johannes,
A nice and warm photo and it seems the touristic season is not started yet. It's the curve in the far background that goes in to the ocean and the big rocks in front what makes the composition very nice. But also smaller details like the waves that are rolling in and the perfect alignment of the white chairs...waiting for customers, are a very nice detail in the overal composition.

Johannes,
This is a great shot of this beautiful beach. Your composition is great using the water line to create a diagonal through the shot. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF.

Johannes,
the place is indeed very beautiful and invites to stay. Funny to see that the whole place is empty as if ready to start the season but no tourists to enjoy the place. Everthing looks neat and your composition helps a lot to get that feeling. The bend in the background gives the impression of security, the chairs all ordered and aligned with the incoming waves. The light on the cliffs gives a warm hue.

Hello Johannes!
I was in that beach in 2004, but it was wintertime! Even so, it was much warmer than other places I had been in Portugal and Spain by that time! I want to go back to the Algarve during summertime and this very nice photograph you have captured just makes me want to do that for sure!
Natural colors, great sharpness and POV!
TFS - Congratulations!
Greetings from Cold Brazil - at least where I live!

Hello Johannes,
So nice and so sharp to enjoy the "details"...Even without people I can image how wonderful it is to be here to spent few days for summer vocations.I like it very much!

A very sharp and detailed shot in a carefully thought out composition. The warm colour of the rocks and sandy beach contrasted with the white reclining chairs is surely very appealling. The small waves conveys a relatively peaceful and quite beach which I would love to be there.

Hello Johannes,
the portuguese seashore is fantastic and the image you captured truly demonstrates it.
I suppose it was taken in the early morning and you used a warming filter. I like the effect of eroded cliffs some facing the sea, the others facing the beach.
This image already made my morning brighter.
Regards,
L.
