By looking at the tree in the middle of the water it seams that the river is a bit overflowing and the region had quite substantial rain in recent times. The composition is excellent and the contrasting colours are superb. Just a minor observation. I think you are one month ahead on the “Date taken”!!! The note is also very good. Well done.

Hello John,

It looks as if the tree was at a crossroad and ended in the middle of the river!
Well chosen, low pov which makes the river an excellent, wide leading line!
The tree is a good focal point in the f/g and then we are led to the bridge in the b/g!
Good natural colours and nicely presented!

kind regards,
Bev :-)

Ficou muito interessante esta fotografia John. A ponte escondida entre os galhos de árvore e este lindo céu de um azul brilhante são lindos detalhes.

Hi John,
Clever use of the tree which is placed very well in the right hand foreground. Interesting to see it is totally in the water. On the left hand side of the photo, we have a nice view over the river towards the bridge. The light is enhancing. Well done!

Lars

A composição está bonita, com esse rio cheio componto e unindo a paisagem. Uma boa profundidade e bons ajustes complementam o seu trabalho.

Abraço

Hi John,

Thanks for the advice in the note. Your photo is good, the well watered river seems to have a strong current, possibly too swift for a swim. Are there any dangerous creatures living in here I wonder? I like the way you title the photo within the bordering frame at both the top and bottom corners - it is a refreshing change from the usual style. The best part here is the blue sky combining with the broad green leaves towards the top of the image in my opinion. The bridge proportionally determines distance and scale. Well done, a very pleasant scene!

Bonjour John,
une photo super nette avec des allures de relief. Des couleurs très naturelles et bien soutenues. Le souci d'un cadrage efficace même si le pont est un peu caché.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hello John.
A very nicely composed and cropped photo with the eye being led from the base of the tree to the bridge in the background. Nice reflection in the water which seems to swirl with energy. I like the presentation of the light and the natural colour. A well chosen position to take this shot.
Regards,
Andrew

Estimado John,
Tu foto es muy bonita, llena de elementos interesantes y representativa de la idea de una encrucijada.
Pero aún más fuerte, tu nota es muy intensa. Es llena de clarividencia y también de emoción. Gracias por el compartido.
Un saludo desde Lieja,

Hola John,
me gusta esta foto, el árbol en el agua en primer plano da un fuerte efecto gráfico, y el río, el puente y las magníficas nubes en el cielo azul completan una buena composición.
Está bien vista, y la has realizado perfectamente.
La reflexión en tu nota es buena e interesante.
Buen trabajo.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Hola John,
Composicion balanceada con buenos detalles y color. El arbol con el reflejo en el agua es tu elemento principal y me gusta como se ve el resto de la imagen con el verde a la izquierda, el puente en el fondo, muy bien captada.
saludos,

Hola John,
llego tarde a comentar la foto, los demás miembros de TE ya te han dicho todo!

Solamente añadir que uno de los mayores atractivos de la foto para mi es ver ese caudal del río tan y tan abundante, es magnífico, cubriendo parte del tronco del árbol y dando un fuerte dinamismo a la imagen.
La nota es intensa, ardiente y lleva a la reflexión e introspección.

Excelente trabajo! Un abrazo desde Igualada,
Jordi

Bonjour John,
Merci pour la visite ce qui me permet de faire connaissance avec ta galerie.
De très belle photos de paysages et d'architectures colombiennes.
Cette composition est remarquable et elle est complétée par une note très philosophique que j'apprécie.
Well done
