Hi Angel,

What a beautiful village you have found and presented. The afternoon light, I guess, makes it so attractive and remarkable place. Well seen and done. Thanks for sharing.

The oblique line of houses creates a good deepness toward the water. You have worked well with the light hitting the buildings. Good colors and sharpness.

Bonjour Angel

Si on ne peut pas avoir une maison en bord de mer, pourquoi ne pas se bâtir une jetée et bâtir dessus. J'aime beaucoup les couleurs et la lumière.

Amicalement

Bonjour Angel,
je suis très fan des photos où se cotoient des bleus et aussi les teintes chaudes des pierres ou des briques sous un soleil bas. Tout est rassemblé ici pour me plaire, dans cette jolie carte postale bien cadrée, d'un endroit calme.
Mes compliments.
Daniel.

adramad (27872) 2012-02-28 9:27

Hola Angel.
Con que dos soberbias imagenes nos regalas aqui, si bonita es esta que pones como principal, la gran panoramica del WS es fantastica, mostrando el comienzo de la playa, el color de ambas es una delicia, pues la variedad de colores de las casas se une al tono dorado del sol.
Un trabajo magnifico, con buena nitidez y la luz especial del sur.
Pasa una buen final de tarde de este festivo Dia de Andalucia.
Un abrazo.
Luis.

Hola Ángel,
la baja luz del atardecer te regaló esos maravillosos tonos dorados y cálidos sobre la arquitectura de este moderno pueblo marinero, que captaste a la perfección, mediante un buen encuadre, un ángulo visual eficaz y una elegante perspectiva.
Me gusta la estructura y el equilibrio gráfico de tu composición, con un buen homenaje a este cielo andaluz tan limpio, y un poco de espacio también para el mar.
Un trabajo muy bonito, y bien realizado.
Un abrazo, amigo mío,
Josep

ciao Angel,
la luce calda della tonalità giova all'immagine che risulta viva nel contrasto tra l'azzurro del cielo e le costruzioni colorate.
Taglio che bilancia la scena tra cielo e terra,
buona giornata

Hello Angel,

Magnificent warm vs cold colour contrasts between the blue sky & the yellow, orange, and reddish tints in the fg. Well composed using the rule of thirds with the horizon line placed well away from the centre. Tfs!

La luz de la puesta del sol le da a tu foto un aspecto de dulzura y suavidad a los colores. Todo parece muy tranquilo pero también tan vivo. El mar junto al cielo da el contraste adecuado en una foto muy bonita!
