[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
And yes, the title for my next photo will be 551th... or not.

I wanted to post a photo about Cocoland and the 550th photo is a good moment for do it.

It was last summer and that day I used for first time my 70-300mm.
It is simple, only a tree in the foreground and a field in the background. No more.


What do you think?
Maybe I'm too fond of my village?
Perhaps, but also is true than a simple work with a simple composition can be good. And I think the light and the graphism of the photo are the key of this picture.

I hope you like my 550th photo in TE as I like Cocoland.

See you soon in Cocoland.



WS (both, the main photo and the WS have the same problem: the sharpness have been damaged by the overcompression)

550... that's an impressive number, Carlos, congratulations! and you have chosen an excellent photo to mark this occasion, I like a lot how almost invisible stems of grass in the foreground mirror the lines on the field in the background. the tree and the way you've included in the scene creates a very pleasing frame. beautiful colours and light, very well seen and presented.
wishing you successful next 550 posts,
Kristine

Hola Carlos,

Congratulations your 550th post on TE and wish to see many more thousands of photos from you.

Tracks on yellow field is make your frame more richest. I like light plays on tree branches and leafs.

Friendly Regards,

Ertugrul

hola carlos,
cocoland for 550th photo is a good choice...particularly that you present us with a warm, sunny, pleasant view of summer nature...and currently weather here is sort of depressing so your photo will definitely cheer the day up...
best wishes, j.

Ver, oir y callar....Bon dia Carlos,
estaba viendo tu particular paraíso de Cocolandia, mientras oía por fín el chiste del ruso y me quedado mudo!!

Felicidades por las 550's y por la plácida foto, Jordi

hello Carlos,
a nice one, the colors are nicely sturated.
regards
didier

Hola Carlos,
tens raó, la llum i el grafisme dels elements són un percentatge molt alt en la composició, que d'altra banda és senzilla però ben buscada.
Els tons daurats del camp a l'estiu també aporten un bon toc plàstic.
550 fotos, impressionant!
Una abraçada,
Josep

Hola Carlos,

Felicidades por las 550, con esta imagen transmites parte de que sientes por tu pueblo, un lugar tranquilo donde aislarse del ruido y las prisas de las grandes ciudades, un gran trabajo con la luz, cálida y que llena solo con mirarla, la composición sencilla pero con la picardía del que sabe lo que busca, en definitiva, un excelente trabajo.

Saludos
José

Overexposed or not, it seems as a wonderful to visit especially in the summer! You're lucky to have it as your shelter! I like the colors in both the original and the WS photo. Your POVs are also great! Thank you for sharing and you have to make them at least 1000!!!! Regards Stella

Ola Carlos,
What a nice golden bed, and good use of light here. Typical of the beauty around us and that few non photographers see really -
Friendly regards and many thanks - Izzet

Hi Carlos,
It is shot like this that defines the photographer ... a simple scene made visually appealing. Well captured and composed ... you've mastered the use of lighting here. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hola Carlos!

Tan diferente de tu foto anterior, pero igualmente impresionante. Muy bella toma de la naturaleza cocolandiana, gran encuadre y composicion, unos colores bien saturados! Felicidades!

Un saludo,
Hercules

PS. Lo se, lo se, lo olvide, pero con un poquito de paciencia...
PS 2. Que tal con el trabajo, te renuevan?

Preciosa imagen, en la que has conseguido un color excepcional.
Un saludo
Mer

Bonjour Carlos

Hay mucha belleza en muchas de las cosas sencillas que nos rodean como en ese campo bañado por esa luz dorada que le confiere una gran calidez.

Bonsoir Carlos cette 550 ou 551ème est très intéressante; le champ ressemble à une galette des rois bien dorée.
Une image qui m'ouvre l'appétit.
J'apprécie surtout la qualité des lumières.
Cordialement.

hi Carlos ,very nice shot and simple beauty colours !

Olá Carlos, congratulations on your 550th post. It's been more dificult for you to post since the 500th, but you still managed to continue sharing your thoughts and I apreciate that. Both photos are very beautiful and I don't know which one I like more. I know what do you mean with compression on images with many leaves, but as you say, the light is marvellous and the framing is very good. I don't notice any problem with the sharpness, anyway.
Un abrazo,
ricardo
p.s - I can see that you stopped in Paris while I was there...but you stop in many places frequently, now a days...

Hola Carlos,

Original hasta para las celebraciones! Está bien, ¿por qué no celebrar el 550, en lugar del 500? En cualquier caso, la foto es muy buena para celebrar algo, incluso para no celebrar nada: es muy buena. El tono dorado del campo es un tesoro, y el fuerte contraluz un añadido de relieve y profundidad que resulta muy interesante.

Un abrazo,
Angel.

PS: Y gracias por alegrarte de mi vuelta, a ver si me pongo las pilas.

Hola Carlos! Enhorabuena por tus 5 centenas y media! Haces muy bien en estar enamorado de tu tierra y de presumir de ella; además es todavía más loable si tenemos en cuenta la de sitios a los que viajas... Muy buena la foto, y nada de simple: las texturas, los colores, la calidez, la profundidad y la luz tan especial la hacen muy buena.
Gracias por compartir tanto con todos nosotros.
Un abrazo,
Inés

Hello Carlos,

En me promenant dans ta galerie, je suis tombé sur cette très belle photographie ü
J'aime beaucoup l'idée de l'avant plan parfaitement net et de l'arrière plan flou !
Les couleurs sont splendides !
Bravo !

A+

Hola Carlos,
Una toma estupenda hiciste acá. Los colores estan esplendidos y muy atractivos. Me gustarón de los contrastes de las sombras y también las texturas de la arena. Un buen trabajo. Saludos, Consuelo

Hola Carlos,

you have so many fine shots in your impressive gallery that it was difficult to choose but I settled on this one because I love trees and the colours are rich & warm. The branches act as a natural frame and the grass in the foreground is well worked into the main picture. It's a beautiful summer shot and well seen.

Regards

Stephen
