Photographer’s Note

I've posted a picture earlier this year with a colorful view of Perce Rock, it was taken from Bonaventure island on the other side (to the right). Here's another view from the town of Perce this time, on this pleasant august morning in 2004 behind these colorful chairs. After a few pictures, I sat a few minutes under this gorgeous sunny sky and just relax, enjoy.

This photo is well balance. It gives me a calming effect and the chairs are really colourful on the green lawn.

maurajn (902) 2005-04-24 3:22

Wow! Did that ever catch my eye! The color presentation of the chairs (I love photos of empty chairs enjoying a pleasant view!) is a wonder and a nice view of Roche Perce in the background. One small critique - maybe clone out that lamp on the far left that has no attachment. Thankfully it is not prominent and doesn't really distract.

Hi Pierre, A beautiful landscape and beautiful way to see it. A very well composed picture. The diagonally arranged line of chairs made this an eye-catching picture. The blue water and blue sky made the special rock stand out.
A well composed, very clean, clear, sharp and detailed photo. Nice frame, too. Well done.

Bonjour Pierre

Good to see a new upload from you. I like the colorful diagonal of the deckchairs. Well composed, with good saturation & lighting. Tres bon!

Hi Pierre!
Congrats for this colourful photo! I like the composition and your POV.
Cheers, Thorsten

L'opposition des couleurs et les formes modernes de ces sièges devant ce paysage eternel, c'est une très bonne idée.
Bien cadré, bien fait.
j'adore.

Hi Pierre,
I like this colorful picture very much. An amazing view of the cliff, and a very nice addition of the chairs as a foreground.
Regards,
Yitzhak.

Bon dimanche,
Jean-Yves

pbernardon (593) 2005-04-24 10:10

Nice POV and Nice Colours yet on this picture of Perce ...

Thanks for sharing Pierre

Very inviting-looking scene with the amazingly colorful deck chairs looking out onto the water. One more time, Perce Rock proves to be a great photo subject that you included well in your framing here. Good shot, Pierre.

Steft (5962) 2005-04-24 11:29

Hello Pierre,
Very nice photo. I love all those coloured chairs. They look very graphic they way the are placed here. You have some good colours: green grass, bright red, blue and red chairs and a nice blue sky and see.

Nice wide sky and that rock in the see make the composition very exciting. But the texuture of the stone is a bit strange, on some parts it looks very sharp, on some parts very vague. But it is not really disturbing.

Good photo!

elihesamian (26091) 2005-04-24 14:01

Very appealing for eyes,I don't want to close my eyes for second!
colors,colors and what an attractive real colors,with those colors charis that are great in this combination and gallery of tonalities.
amazing rock in point of forms,indeed very interesting,...very nicely worked,Pierre,and very nicely composed,too,I enjoy it very much.

Best Regards
M

PJE (19485) 2005-04-24 16:28

Okay now I am counting how many colors of each chair in the scene and it is quite balanced. 3 red 4 yellow 2 blue..the over powering feature of red compensated the 4 yellow and having only 2 bluw makes it a competition between yellow and red. This photo is just great. The colored chairs really make it attractive viewing. I bet you knew you would get alot of comments with all the extra color. That huge hunk of rock looks great too.

Stepan (27175) 2005-04-24 16:32

A very funny colorfull composition. Actually, it makes a cheerful picture ! Thanks.
Stéphane

Rockyboy (20582) 2005-04-24 16:50

Elles sont kitch ces chaises de couleur et le décors derrière est splendide. Très bien vu, Pierre!

toni_al (15476) 2005-04-24 18:02

Belle dynanisme avec l'angle des chaises colorées. J'aime aussi le rocher avec le trou. Superbes couleurs et saturation. C'est vrai que la lampe pourra être coupée. C'est juste un détail.
Salutations Toni

kajenn (2325) 2005-04-24 21:12

It's almost as an installation of art, Pierre, a bit surrealistic to see these colorful chairs together with the beautiful sea and that remarkable island as a backdrop. They seem so sturdy and call on such attention, that the island seem to be the fragile part. What brings order to the relation is the ship approaching the pier with a lot of people waiting - and the real scale is understood. But for a moment it's a very dramatic picture. Very well done!

cam (8880) 2005-04-24 21:47

C'est une des plus belle photo du rocher que j'ai vu.Excellente composition,car sans ses chaises,ce n'est qu'une autre photo du rocher.
Très belle réussite.Charles

Hi Pierre,
Satisfied again a beautiful and colourful picture, I like the different colourtintes of the chairs, but the background is formidable lovely.
Thanks for visiting and sharing.

Jeppe (18623) 2005-04-26 18:02

A very fine mix of fresh and bright colours and fine mofifs - I like the sight of the well-known rock - thanks Pierre for sharing.

Intruder (3075) 2005-04-27 18:07

hello Pierre, what a great composition and offcourse the colors in your photo are amazing. i love the green blue contrast, very nice shot!

Kenny10pin (19301) 2005-04-28 7:29

great shot of the multi coloured seats here, I like way you have taken this, very good work, well done

papagolf21 (56733) 2005-04-29 4:31

Cher Pierre,
Face à la mer dans des fauteuils multicolores, nous pouvons admirer ces falaises qui se découpent sur une mer d'un bleu azur (on a l'impression de voir une partie des falaises d'Etretat en pleine mer).
Très bon cadrage avec des couleurs superbes.
Philippe

jp80 (8437) 2005-04-29 5:40

Salut Pierre,
une très belle image, bien cadrée et bien colorée ! L'angle de prise de vue crée des perspectives intéressantes. Bien vu !

naxius (16679) 2005-04-29 8:48

Bonjour Pierre,
Quelles couleurs! C'est magnifique et d'une gaiete!
Vraiment j'aime beaucoup ta composition.
Tres belle MAP.
Alexandre

JesusV (922) 2005-04-29 11:46

Lovely place, like the coposition and saturated colours. Jesus

jemaflor (39759) 2005-05-02 6:20

Bonjour Pierre,
Cette originale présentation avec toutes ces couleurs ajoute à la beauté du site. Beau coup d'oeil !

danyy (69417) 2005-05-03 13:21

Original Pierre,
tu as renforcé les couleurs pour marquer davantage les contrastes entre les sièges, c'est bien vu.
Amicalement.
Daniel.

Didi (36434) 2005-05-05 6:07

Bonjour Pierre
Je constate une bonne saturation des couleurs sur ce paysage.
Il faut essayer d'utiliser un diaphragme plus fermé pour les prises de vues statiques, ceci pour permettre d'avoir une profondeur de champ plus étalée.
Dans ce cas plus besoin d'utiliser un filtre pour améliorer la netteté.
Le G3 est léger donc une vitesse au 1/60 s ne provoquera pas de bougé avec une focale normale.

jstewart (1081) 2005-05-09 2:30

Bonjour Pierre,
This is a dramatic and colorful composition. Brightly painted Adirondack chairs are irresistable to the photographer.
Others have not commented on what I think is quite a serious drawback in your image: It is very pixellated, granular and not sharp: I wonder why, since it is taken with a good camera.
Further, I agree with another TE member's comment - you sould delete the lamp on the left.

loupiot (3909) 2005-05-11 10:28

Bonjour Pierre,
Jolie vue sur ce superbe paysage marin. Bonne idée d'avoir inclus ces chaises si colorées dans la composition, cela apporte une touche multicolore originale. C'est bien vu!

Georges (11185) 2005-05-19 4:49

Que de belles teintes ici qui attirent beaucoup le regard.
Le cadrage est superbe il met bien en valeur toute cette scene.
Bravo Pierre c'est jolie comme prise.

faubry (32417) 2005-05-19 5:24

la modrenité des formes et des couleurs devant un paysage naturel vieux depuis des siècles, bien vu, j'aime beaucoup

capthaddock (28640) 2005-05-23 10:58

Superbe composition, jolies couleurs vives et bon piqué. J'aime bien la manière donc les chaises sont placées en disposition du rocher et l'agencement des couleurs. Très vien vu!

bazal (7898) 2005-12-01 3:30

Bonjour, Pierre.
J'avais raté cette originale composition qui joue parfaitement avec les couleurs vives des sièges au premier plan. L'arrière plan et le 'Pierce rock' est très spectaculaire. merci du partage !
