Sleeping beauties Photo

Photographer’s Note

An sunrize overview on the Key West Seaport adjacent to the Boardwalk that unites the recently-revamped Historic Seaport District as an enclave of more than 100 touristic businesses.
The non-linear two-mile boardwalk ties together all boutiques, bars and restaurants.

Good morning, Robert,

Funny, they sort of do look like they're sleeping. This is a good "eastern morning" shot, conveying that quiet, meditative feel of an Atlantic sunrise (though sooner or later someone here will congratulate you on a "nice sunset!" It's unavoidable.)

This shot makes me want to stroll down to the docks with my coffee...

Regards,
Lisa

Hello Robert,

A lovely evening atmosphere in the harbour!
The low light gives a great effect, and the repetition of fishing rods leaves no doubt about what kind of business...
A well composed presentation, pin sharp details!

Greetings,

Hi Robert,
Wonderful busy scene of this crowed marina with the long polls of the many pleasure crafts forming an upsidedown V as the sit agains this lovely tranquil morning sky.
Regards, Tom

Hi Robert. Your title fits the mood and the fading light nicely.Subtle shades of colour and gentle light give a nice softness to the image. Excellent retention of details. Regards. Klaudio.

Hello Robert!
Boats are a great object for excellent picture and you did such a wonderful photo job here! The image is very attractive with superb lights and colors (I specially like the cloudy sky and the reflection on the wet pier)! Pov was very well chosen and the composition is very good too!
TFS - congratulations!
Best regards,
Neyvan

Hi Robert

Also yachts have to rest, when the owners visit a town, they have no choice at all. The pier leading to the sunset is a real boost for DOF. The sky is nice with some clouds and some gold-red, the right mixture. There still is light on the boats, but they can rest for the night, I guess. Sharpness is fine as also the color and light management. Well done

Best regards
Urs
