Minimal Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Minimal - 3 elements to a photo.
Sand, cloud and rainbow.
Going on with my travelogue about my trip along Espirito Santo state with my Trekearth friend Felipe Souza .
We´ve started a new theme, so that you can see our pictures alltogether.
Sky carefully filtered with NI, over selected areas, to preserve the clouds.
Taken at Itaúnas dunes . Sand lightened by early morning sun, in a rainy morning.

All critiques are welcome.

Você foi até lá para pegar seu Mensalão?... digo pote de ouro?
Lindo... composição muito boa. O céu ficou ótimo. As cores do arco também.
Textura da areia... tá tudo muito bom.

Hi Carmem!
Realy nice simple photo.Good lines and colours.Rainbow gives just more magic to photo.

KevRyan (22352) 2005-09-15 3:45

aaah! Carmen a sublime landscape - just wonderful - a little piece of magic that sill excites something really quite 'primitive' within me - really one of my favourites amongst the landscapes here on TE.

best wishes KEv

Brilliant landscape capture. Love the way you got the rainbow to end exactly in the small hill. The deep dark grey sky fits very nicely to the red sand. Great job.

Photo parfaite...
Contraste des ton foncé et ton clair magnifique
composition excellente et le petit arc-en-ciel est vraiment la cerise sur le gateau...
Very nice shot
Vince

P.S J'aime juste pas trop le cadre que tu a mis sur la photo. un cadrage plus simple aurait fait ressortir encore plus la beauté de la photo...(WS)

great.
i don't like the frame, but the weight of the cloud, the composition and the colours make this shot really good!

Grande foto, Carmem.
Um belo momento de excelente combinação de luz, o negro das nuvens pesadas e a cor das dunas. Eu gostaria de ver um pouco mais de solo, mas respeito sua opção de priorizar o céu e as nuvens carregadas.
O arco-íris é, naturalmente, o ponto forte da foto, muito bem posicionado no enquadramento e atrás do montinho. Deu um brilho relevante à foto.
A moldura poderia ser mais simples... a foto já é muito boa... mas isso também é uma questão muito pessoal.
Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho.
Abraços,

Celso

Hello Carmem,
Beautiful colors and great composition with this small yellow strip at the bottom that contrasts with the dark, grey sky. The cloud and the rainbow are awesome... very dramatic! I love it!
Regards, Brigitte

Olá Carmem,
Você agora está rica, pegou o pote de ouro. A foto está linda, excelente cores e a faixa do arco-íris se escondendo por trás das nuvens. Eu também postei um arco-íris em Rainbow.
Abraços,
Leonor

betogrein (2232) 2005-09-15 10:41

Lindíssima fofo, as cores, o contraste da areia com o céu e o arco-iris. Tudo perfeito, essa vai para as favoritas.
Beijo...

Hola Carmen,

With your compositions bordering a bit the dream world.

Ciao,

Olá Carmen, eu gostei das cores, e do arco-íris, dá aquela impresão de pote de ouro lá naquele monte!
Só achei que tem muito céu! Eu fiz um workshop...pena que a foto ficou um pouco pequena, mas dá para ter idéia do que digo!

Abraços
André

Hello Carmen,
Superb colors and nice cloud!
The rainbow give the little touch to make the picture very attractive.
Very nice done.

Hi Carmen
good job with exploring the extremes of composition ... minimal land in this photo adds a great dynamist to this so very well composed photo that is full of vibrant energy

Ola Carmen,
Great work catching these elements together and in a very harmonic situation. Very nice the contrast between the sand and the clouds, connect by the rainbow. A beautiful picture with very warming colours.
Parabéns,
Ricardo

oochappan (22032) 2005-09-28 16:54

You still got a preference for incongreous landscapes captured like paintings and this one if you look only at the clouds you almost got the feeling that they are still drifting on, nicely textured clouds in contrast with the very sober and warm colored small piece of land with the rainbow just above the well placed wooden sticks and small hill.
An outstanding one lately in your gallery, always a pleasure to come by and compare your achievements.

quantabeh (5203) 2005-10-04 18:26

wow, what a beautiful photo, the rainbow adds so much beauty against the dark sky, and the bright foreground is in excellent contrast with the sky. A superb shot.
cheers,
Behrang

Great clash of colours which works well with the rainbow in the background hitting the mound.
Well done
Darren

Hi Carmen,
what a wonderful rainbow and light!
so empty space.. would like to be there :)
Nice one, maybe i would change frame (more simple if it is minimal), but otherwise i like it.

Oi Carmem,
Great shot of the dunes (in glowing color), rainbow and sky!

carmem

lindíssima imagem. A cor do solo em dourado faz um belo contraste com o céu escuro e as nuvens cheias de detalhes. O arco-íris é para acabar de arrebatar a visão. perfeita imagem
