Hello Brian,

This does me think at the known symbol of Shell.
Simple picture but very pleasant for look at with the big sky.
Color and subject are pleasant.
Excellent composition, nice presentation, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Its Outstanding composition and framing. Its a striking contrast.
The Blues .... are striking too !
The flakes of white clouds above a sharp sky-blue hut is a stark contrast.
The blue shell is remarkably clear and bright.
Thanks for a very well composed photograph.

It is an interesting detail of a "small" beach architecture, great effect of an eye, as an allegory of providence, well done

Ciao Brian
una composizione molto originale, mi piace molto.
Il taglio verticale con tutto il cielo blu intenso è splendido. Mi piace anche il titolo, sembra quello di una poesia.
Saluti

Hello Brian
This one is a keeper for sure, wonderful work. Such a great and different POV - very graphic feel and I love how you have given so much to the wispy sky. I think the sharpness, detail in the wood grain and colour contrast are superb
Thanks for sharing
Kathryn

Beautiful graphism giving way to a really deep blue sky, Brian. Looking at your more graphic work reminds me to stop looking so much for the whole when taking shots but also for the isolated detail that can be selected out, like in this work. Nicely done.

Hello Brian - beautiful in blue! A wonderful minimal composition, well considered and despite the simple look full of super detail and as always very well managed. The wisps of white cloud add a perfect contrast to the palette of blues and the light adds fine touches of shadow. Lovely work. Warm regards rosemary

Brian
Triangle and "shell" to thirteen (13) streaks.
Photos and symbolism.
Strong colors and sky "enlightened."
Strong intuition and succession time "executive".
A pleasure to follow your path photographers.
