[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I shoot this photo sometime in January in the Philippines somewhere between Manila & Tagaytay. We happen to see this abandoned fishing village along the way. I tool a shot on this view and it turns out to be good (my own point of view).

The village may be abandoned after the younger generation flew to bigger town to look for jobs and settle down there. Not much younger generation are willing to follow their parents foot steps as they think being a fisherman is on a lower class job list.

Hi Adam,
Very well composed image with wonderful color tones and good light.
Thanks and best wishes. Uğur

I like your composition here and your colors look very natural. I like it because you didn't over process it. Job well done.

Hello Adam,
You capture the place from a good point of view, and the composition is fine... nicely balanced and with strong foreground interest!
Picturesque scenery, I'm kind of surprised this place is left behind since the setup seems to be better than many...
Greetings,

Very interesting story to tell... despite the frame that seems to distract my eye especially on the upper part (the higlights on the sky, you still portrayed something good to think about. very nice story to share...

Hello Adam,
I like very much your composition. The point of view was very well chosen. The water-lilies are so beautiful in the foreground as well as the abandoned wooden house in the background. The natural environment is so impressive!
Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes,
Athanasios.
