Celso, fantastic photo. Great atmosphere and composition. Those afternoon colrors are so soft and beautiful. Congratulations. L.

Great shot! This really is a spectacular beach scene, the clouds and mist particularly add something. About the only thing I'd consider changing is that I'd try rotating it 0.5°CCW since the horizon appears slightly crooked - it may just be curvature, but since we can't see the horizon on the right hand side it may be better to rotate it anyway. Something I'm curious about is what post-processing you've applied? Anyway, an excellent capture :-D

FAANTASTIC - a bit too surreal, but still very impressive

hi celso,
Good job. The noise on the sea is good on your pic. how did you do it? The weather was windy? or you add an efect?

A very dramatic shot Celso - I can almost feel the sea spray on my face. I agree with Adrian though about needing to rotate it a little CCW. You are right about the towers being perfectly vertical when you measure them against a grid, but they don't look it when the picture is viewed as a whole. Sometimes it is only an illusion that a picture looks crooked, but if a slight rotation can remove that illusion, I prefer that to one that is actually straight but doesn't look straight (if you get what I mean!) Cheers ... David

Olá Celso, aqui está uma imagem de sonho....enfim, um daqueles sonhos que eu gostaria de realizar. Ainda por cima, a praia parece estar vazia, o que me surpreende! Deus dá nozes a quem não tem dentes! Os brasileiros têm tanta praia que dão-se ao luxo de ir passar os dias à piscina. A vida é difícil, para nós que vivemos no frio...

davido (1982) 2005-07-15 14:51

It is a beautiful postcard from your region :^)
I am impressed by the colours of this shot.
Late afternoon is the best time to be on the beach.
No crowd, no noisy neighboors and just peaceful feeling.
Congratulations for this piece of dream !

dramatic shot! nice works but if i was confuesd its about clouding. can you some worked on pc or the cloud are real.

jean-marie (3088) 2005-07-15 15:03

Magnifique photo. l'exposition est magnifique et le cadrage est impécable. Que de détails dans cette photo.

Finalmente vou vendo imagens inéditas do Rio de Janeiro. De facto nunca imaginei que esta fosse a paisagem circundante. Para mim é inédito que seja um terreno tão acidentado já que nas novelas apenas se vê casas ou praia.

O enquadramento é magnifico e aproveitaste muito bem a altura do dia já que os tons dourados trazem uma riqueza visual muito grande. E embora o horizonte esteja centrado neste caso isso nem importa pois a sucessão de montanhas é suficientemente forte para segurar a nossa visão.

Dito isto, penso apenas que o trabalho gráfico é um pouco forte demais para a imagem que tens, já que introduziu algum ruído no céu e nas encostas dos montes tirando nitidez e detalhes. Penso que uma imagem mais natural ficaria fantástica pois seria mais brilhante. Não que não ache a imagem bastante boa, mas uma imagem mais natural poderia ter mais valor comercial em termos de revistas / sites de turismo. Mas claro que terás a original.

Serwus Celso !
This shot is absolutely wonderful. Superb point of view to show this beautiful sight. I love colours here, especially tones of the water. Amazing!
Thank You,
Mat

Cormac (26445) 2005-07-15 15:28

Wow! I love the haze or mist in the hills, which gives great depth to the scene. I also like the way you included only a sliver of the beach, which somehow connects with the clouds in the sky. Well done!

Ina (2679) 2005-07-15 15:41

Lovely scene and a great light... Looks like a painting...TFS...Ina...

NB.If you want to, you can see my picture from the same mountain here on TE too...

ccooper (836) 2005-07-15 17:43

Celso,
The light here is almost unreal. A very classic Rio view! Nice!

Hi Celso
Très beua paysage, superbe cadrage, les gens sur la plage sont tous petits. Joli travail
Toni

Hi Celso,
This is an impressive picture indeed. Very interesting colours give it quite expressive mood and artistic look. Very well seen and done!

Thanks,
Marek

Novamente uma bela foto Celso! Fica parecendo uma pintura como aquela outra sua "Backyard in Rio". Não conheço essa praia, na verdade pouco conheço de Niterói. Queria ir mais vezes lá tirar fotos!

Parta tirar essa foto, você estava onde? Em alguma montanha, parece que vai dentro do mar! Muibo boa a foto mesmo!

Abraços

Hi Celso M
Very very nice shot. Excellent composition. Well POV. Thanks. Boone week end

MaJose (427) 2005-07-16 2:08

Impressive photography.
The height of the frame is excellent, and although there is a little noise, truely the eyes take a walk throughout the landscape.

summersun (4964) 2005-07-16 5:16

beautiful image Celso, I like the sort of fog on the bay, the clouds in the sky and the large part given to the sea with its different colors. the people look so small compared to this beautiful landscape.

Very nice sky; just a little noisy.

Belíssima foto. Contraste, brilho e o ruído dá um charme a mais nas ondas do mar. E, claro, a paisagem ajuda bastante!

Parabéns

srabbe (1424) 2005-07-17 9:33

Hi Celso,
Beautiful shot, a bit noisy hoewever.
The inclusion of people like little ants gives all the dimension to the background moutains.
Very nice.

Despite tilted and grainy - a masterpiece Celso. Fascinating soft colors with a superb scenery, well done!

mckee (53) 2005-11-10 21:09

Gostei da versão original. O reforço dado na outra versão, tirou a naturalidade da foto. Além disso as bordas dos morros ficaram tremidas devido a forte compressão da imagem. Tente comprimir menos.

lucbus (11) 2005-11-10 21:14

Hi Celso,
Very nice shot, with great effect of the sunlight mix with the fog. Excellent composition.
