Sittin'on the dock of the bay Photo

Photographer’s Note

Good Morning.

I remember this scene?

Naturally, the Otis Redding song "Sitting on the dock of the bay." One of the best songs I've heard.
Picture in the same place as yesterday but the post on another dock.

By the way, if you know any of the monthly magazine Digital Camera I have to say that the number of leaves in June published a picture of me in the section Fotomundo.

You have a good day.

Sitting on de dock of the bay
-----------------------------

Sitting in the morning sun

I'll be sitting when the evening comes

Watching the ships roll in

And I watch 'em roll away again

Sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay

Wasting time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the 'Frisco bay '

Cause I had nothin to live for

And look like nothing's gonna come my way

So I'm just...

Look like nothing's gonna change

Everything still remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

It's two thousand miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home Now,

I'm just...

Beautiful shot Luis. Very atmospheric. The eye is immediately drawn to the man sitting in the patch of white light. Stunning colours.

Excellent job, Roberto

Tras tanta foto de Megalópolis Valenciana para mayor gloria de ciertos politicastros, ésta es refrescante, original y bella.

Uno no diría que es Valencia y se despierta la irrefrenable curiosidad de conjeturar qué contenía aquella botella.

Great job!

Hello Luis.
Fantastic silhouette shot that captures a moment and a mood so very well. I like the lighting and the beautiful mellow red tones in sky and water. The slightly hazy mountains add a nostalgic sort of feel to it. Wonderful picture.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Luis,
This picture is at the border between photography and painting. Absolutely amazing colours and beautiful, warm light. Excellent play with the light and shapes- shadows. Well done!

very nice moment both for them and us.. they seems to be talking about the past and enjoying the moment.. and we see a nice moment that they share altogether.. i like the harmony between the red and the blue..
best wishes,
rela

Hello Luis,
This is one of the most beautiful song I have ever heard. Thanks a lot for the splendid union with your fantastic image.
You really excited me.
Friendly regards

Hola Luis,
que te publiquen una foto en una revista es algo grande, y que demuestra la calidad de tus trabajos, te felicito por ello.
Y este contraluz es una maravilla, por la potencia de las siluetas totalmente negras de esos jóvenes en su particular "botellón" a la puesta de sol, y con unos tonos naranja y plateados absolutamente geniales.
Me gusta mucho la composición, y la relación con la inmortal canción de Otis Redding.
Fantástico trabajo.
Un abrazo,
Josep
PS: gracias por lo de las tres copitas. Estamos muy felices.

Hi Luis,
It seems a bit tilted to the right.
I really like that. The shadows are great, it is a nice scene which you caught. Especially I like the bottle: so clearly visible! The guys are apparently having fun and the backgroung is fantastic!
