Photographer's Note

Série sobre o ESTADO DO RIO DE JANEIRO - Região SUDESTE do BRASIL - Nº 004 !

Series on the STATE OF RIO DE JANEIRO - The Southeast Region of Brazil - # 004 !

TRINDADE (I) - PRAIA DO CEPILHO - MUNICÍPIO DE PARATY - LITORAL SUL DO ESTADO DO RIO DE JANEIRO !

TRINDADE (I) - CEPILHO BEACH - PARATY'S MUNICIPALITY - SOUTH COAST OF THE STATE OF RIO DE JANEIRO !

Last week-end, I took my car and went down to the coast with a friend. Nothing really planned, but the intention to get relaxed by the sea!
We stayed in the city of CARAGUATATUBA (some 250km from CAMPINAS, towards the northeast), the main one in the northern coast of the State of São Paulo. From there one can drive around, visit and enjoy hundreds of beaches (crowded, semi-desert or desert ones)!

This time, I stayed in MARTIM DE SÁ BEACH (a pretty urban one, close to downtown), in CARAGUATATUBA, but this picture was taken in another place, even in another State!

I've always heard of TRINDADE and as I wasn't too far away from it, last sunday, early in the morning, I decided to drive up north and reach that spot! After driving along the coast for some 100km (RIO-SANTOS ROAD) and having to face a very narrow road up and down pretty high hills (when I got out of the main road), I had the grateful surprise to reach a real tropical paradise! I loved it and intend to go back there for a longer stay!

Although visited by many, it really gives us a sensation of natural virginity!

TRINDADE itself is a small village that became a charming place for tourists and belongs to the municipality of PARATY, in a region full of amazing tropical spots, full of beaches, mountains and islands!

ONE WS VERSION:
Due to Francesco's (francio64) comments & WS and Wanda's (wanda1) comments, I decided to post one of my versions for this picture with less warm colors! Always happy with TE members's feedbacks! By having them, I'm really sure I've learned much more about photo quality!

Hello Neyvan,

Excellent square format this care for a wonderful image.
Rocks, sand, sea and green forest in background have all ingredients for a great picture.
You choose a very well angle that care for depth and perspective.
Excellent captured, nice composed.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice weekend,
John.

Hi Neyvan,
It looks like a relaxing and idyllic place to spend sonme time. Lovely warm sands and blue waters. I like your viewpoint to include some rocks and show a wide scene of the place. But there seems to be an overall yellowish cast, but it is a minor problem and maybe it is just my screen.
Regards
Wanda

Hello Ney,
We continue our tour around these deserted beaches, each of which has a beauty of its own. I like the point of view here with the shoreline sweeping its way around the frame and the foreground rocks providing a solid anchor point. The warm ambient light is very attractive; whilst the father and child contribute much to the atmosphere of the shot. Colours and sharpness also feature highly.

Bonjour Neyvan

Un très beau moment d'intimité entre un pere et son enfant sur une plage magnifique du Brésil. Que demander de mieux.

Amicalement

Serge

francio64 (38188) 2011-06-24 5:41

Ciao Neyvan,
il luogo è bello e il POV è ben scelto.
Tecnicamente credo che ci sia una dominante gialla troppo evidente, facendo perdere la naturalezza dei colori, soprattutto nel cielo.

Ti ho fatto un WS che spero apprezzerai.

Have a nice day!
Francesco

Olá Ney,
Por pouco a gente se encontrava aí.A foto ficou uma beleza, com excelente ponto de vista, cores e nitidez.Fora de temporada é uma tranquilidade.São praias que ainda conservam a sua beleza natural e cujas areias ainda não estão poluídas.Passei muito rápido por aí, com poucos cliques.
Abração e bom fim de semana

siamesa (27449) 2011-06-25 16:25

Oi Ney

Uma foto prá lá de bela. Incrível como os dois, talvez pai e filho, acrescentam uma atmosfera especial à composição. Parabéns.
Abraços
maria

Salut Ney
Un POV remarquable et un paysage splendide, bien servis par une bonne compo avec un premier plan de rochers, les gens marchant sur la plage fixent bien l'attention. Je pense que les couleurs ont un léger cast verdâtre, que j'ai essayé de diminuer en WS... J’espère que ça te plaira!
Mes amitiés
Laurent

PS Oops... excuse moi, je n'avais pas vu que plusieurs WS identiques avaient déjà été postés...!

Ola Neyvan,
Fabulous beach scenery, taken with fine light, good depth - and I like how the trees on the mountains side are like "falling" to sea.
Heaven's corner...
Ike

jemaflor (68867) 2011-06-26 6:22

Salut Neyvan,
Superbe plage et photo, bon cadrage avec les rochers en premier plan, les personnes isolées pour donner vie à la vue, le paysage est magnifique avec ces eaux et ces montagnes en fond.

danos (73960) 2011-06-26 6:48

Ola Neyvan,
nice the view of the rocky foreground with the combination of the woody Mt. on the backdrop to make the scene so spectacular.The sandy beach in the middle, with the man to cross the sand and the others to enjoy the sea, make the scene even more fascinating.

Regards,Danos

baddori (18988) 2011-06-26 11:48

Neyvan
Luce calda ed alte luci .
Un POV eccezionale di una spiaggia da sogno.
Letto il tuo racconto poco conosciuta , difficile da raggiungere e tu che ti stupisci ...magnifico eccezionale ed interessante .
Grazie per la condivisione
GF

macjake (39227) 2011-06-27 1:07

Hi Neyvan
i'm surprised how such a lovely beach can be so isolated and empty of people!
having the couple in the sand really shows us how large this area is.
funny too, having such large forest type of greenery so close to the beach.
interesting take.
cheers
craig

Nice beach and no crowds! I like the point of view and format with foreground, mid-area and background. It just seems a little hazy and the foreground could be sharper. This photo just exudes peace and quiet.

Hi Ney,
this looks like a paradise to me.
Amazing colors. Very nice hills on the horizon. Wonderful clean sandy beach surrounded by the attractive rock formations. Not too many people.
Simply beautiful!
Have a great weekend!
