The composition is just great. Bright, juicy colours and dramatic picture. "I'm dying here, and you're sunbathing..."
Well done.

Shipwrecks and boats washed up on shore always make great subjects for photographers and you really found a good one. I like the man sitting on the beach like he's waiting for help to arrive, though it's been a very long time.

Hi Sergio,
This is wonderful, especially the colours - so vivid.
I like the man sitting next to the boat and giving a good scale.

Oi, Sérgio! A foto é muito bonita esteticamente (composição, nitidez, cores e profundidade) e na concepção, tal como vc explicita em sua ótima nota. Também acho complicado fotografar gente sem que haja um sentido nisso. Minha tendência tem sido "limar" os humanos rs! Mas vou aprender a lidar com eles - nas fotos! Abraço! Miguel.

You got stunning colours here with the sky and the boat. It is interesting to see that depsite these two are so bright, the more delicate green of the sea remains an essential element of the beauty of your picture.

Olá Sérgio,
Sempre aprecio fotos de barcos como está sua.
A foto está perfeita. Ótima composição, incluindo o rapaz sentado na areia. Deu um toque na foto. Ficaria ótima sem ele mas ficou melhor com.

As cores são ótimas. uma bela foto.

Olá Vascão!
Gostei das cores da foto, estão bem vivas e atraentes, o assunto também foi muito bom, é barco fora de seu elemento natural, triste fim para ele, antes tivesse terminado afundado!
Parabéns e Abraço!
P.S. Ces num podiam ter deixado o corinthians empatar no final... foi foda...

Hi sergio,
The boat looks great even it's dying and still the colors are strong. It contrasts well to the blue sky and the sea. Well done...
All the best,

Wow, this is a very beautiful picture. Very impressive PoV with the boat taking most of the frame and the little man on the left. The boat looks massive in comparison. Very good colors. The sand behind the man looks overexposed though. Good job :-)

Oi Sergio, a really beautiful capture of this wreck and its delightfuk surroundings. The PoV is well chosen and enhances the rakish design of the ship greatly. The colours and definition are superb and the lone person is a vital add to the atmosphere of this one. Xcellent, parabens!
Have a fine weekend,

Hi Sergio
Excellent composition especially dynamic thanks to inclusion of the guy who's dwarfed by the boat. The green of the plant and the red of the boat make the foreground very attractive. That sky is such a stunning blue.

this is a great comeback my friend, this stunning beach image is simply gorgeous through this abandoned wrecked ship and the lonely man sitting as the last guard protecting the vessel;
good to see you here again,

this is a great picture! i am glad there is a person in the frame. i don´t think that having a person in the shot is banal at all, if anything it gives a great sense of scale and life to places. this picture, as well as "fenced beauty", is very poetic and make me feel the sand on my feet.. thanks for sharing!

Hi Sergio,

I saw this on the TE homepage and couldn't resist saying well done. It's a superb composition with the main subject well placed on the right and the colours are simply stunning. Well done, a first class post and one for my favourites.

Regards

Stephen

ps. I noticed on your intro page you're thinking of a D50 this year. That was my first camera too, however, I've since upgraded to a D80 (not much more expensive) and it's superb, I can wholly recommend it.

Hi Sergio, already saw that one in your random 3 pictures in intro, i will help it reach 3 digits cause it really deserves it !
Nice is a great picture, best of all is the isolation of those 2 subject, the little one (the human) in comparison to the huuuge one (the boat). All under a deep blue sky and this almost green sea.
Effective PP and excellent compo.
A real success that pic

Olá Sergio,

ainda não tinha visto essa foto. Caramba, que espetáculo. A perpectiva do barco está ótima e contrasta bem como o bonito céu azul. O Sol estava forte mas mesmo assim vc soube controlar bem a luminosidade. Agradecendo por ter colocado uma de minhas fotos como favorita e por mérito da própria foto essa também vai aos meus.
Abraço,
Carlos

Hello Sergio,
The colour palette is wonderful, so is the dynamic composition!
The wreck is very well framed, and inclusion of the meditating person adds an intriguing element as conserns what he is up to...
Good details, the beautiful sky works well as backdrop!

Hi Sergio,

Really brilliant composition. Everything seems in place here: the boat, its mast, and even the lonely man sitting there, minding his own business, contemplating. It all makes the composition balanced, and closed. Vivid, bright colours is another advantage. Lovely shot.

Cheers

I can see exactly why this photo has gotten so much attention. There are few photos on this site over the 100 point mark, and even fewer that actually deserve the mark. This one definitely belongs as you used the frame perfectly placing the boat. The gorgeous blue sky, and the solitary man.

Excellent work.
