[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A small boat is leaving for fishing just before storm arrive. I preferred my this post in B&W medium for increasing its contrasts. Hope you like it.

Shoot in color and converted to B&W from RAW only.

Many cheers you to all.

Hi Ertugrul
An unusual B&W for you, but a successful effort I would say! The sky has great dynamism and is well balanced by the rather calm waters.
Well realized

merhaba ertugrul

big drama in the sky here. i think, the black and white conversion has worked well here to emphasize that. the speeding boat does bring about a feeling of escape.

warm regards,
kristaps

Merhaba my friend Ertugrul,
The W&B continues offering a great aesthetic and graphical result in this spectacular landscape, where the enormous river and such impressive sky play a perfect role.
I like the dramatic quality that the clouds give to the sky, which compensates the lack of the beautiful colors that already we know for your photos in this zone.
Nice work.
Friendly regards,
Josep

Hello Ertugul,

A superb use of B&W, the sky is wonderful, the constrast are good, a very nice propsect, reflections of the light in sea... a good work, a beautiful photo.
Regards,
Roger

This image is all about the sky, but of course the tiny boat is an important part of the scene. The cloud system is almost symmetrical. Wonderful shot.

Merhaba Ertugrul,
I don't remember having seen any B&W from you, but the result is astounding. Not that surprising, because we are very used to see your talent for composing these dramatic, "spacious" compos, but at the same time, it's curious, because I always thought that the amazing colour management of your photos was very important to their impact. The boat may be small, but it's so important to the compo...
Bravo!
Selamlar, José.

Wonderful work, great light! Perfect frame!
Best wishes,
Achim

Hi Ertugrul,
Your b&w treatment to this dramatic stormy sky brings a timeless feel to this lovely wide river delta scene. Wonderful clairty with excellent details and sharpness to this beauty.
Regards, Tom

Hi Ertugrul,
The explosive clouds make this shot very attractive and the low horizon is just what it needed. I like the emptiness and space save for the speeding fishing boat which suggested some activity. A very captivating shot!!

All the best.

Merhaba,

Hi Ertugrul
Amazing cloud formation! I always look at the sky to capture the clouds so changeable and imposing very often, especially when there's a storm coming
Well done

Hi Ertugrull
Wonderful shot. It's very impressive and dramatic. I'm impressed with these low clouds that seems to catch the boat. Good POV, framing and contrasts. Well done. Regards, Consuelo

Your wide angle lens really works here. Well chosen subject with those striking clouds dominating the upper two thirds. Very good shot.
Regards
Albert

Hey Ertugrul,

Amazing sky here, a bit ominous but very beautiful. The boat "running" away from the cadre is a nice addition.

Hi Ertugrul,

Excellent shot, my friend!

Hi Ertugrul,

This sky is already impressive but the use of the wide-angle lens accentuates the feeling of depth in this marine landscape. The idea of the black and white is original and that gives a good photograph, I like much. Thank you Ertugrul.

Hi Ertugrul,
On arriving in your gallery, my eyes were immediately caught by this impressive sky!
It looks like the end of the world :O
Excellent B&W treatment.

Olá Ertugrul, it's always a pleasure to re-visit your paramaribo river landscapes with incredible skies. What a fabulous one here. I don't know about the color version, but this b&w is fantastic. Good detail of the boat going away under such a heavy sky.
Best regards,
ricardo

Hello Ertugrul,
the good choice of the b&w did allow you to enhance the dramatic tone of the sky, which is the main character of the compo. The small boat in contrapposition to it is just the right spot to deliver a beutiful picture to look at.
Thanks for sharing this.
