One of the best things of Holland Photo

Photographer’s Note

Yes, the colours and shapes of the Holland's sky and clouds are one of the best things at this country. I enjoy it very much and like to show it to you.

I don;t know much stuff about Holland except those usual stuff, now I know that it has beautiful sky also:) I think what I mostly like in this pic is this left part where the skewed surface interrupts the beach serenity, it gives a different feeling to the overall impression.

My goodness, this is so breathtaking! It's so beautiful, can't help but admire God for creating such a beautiful world! This picture reminds me of the Northern Lights :)

Great job Kik!

Have a peaceful New Year ahead :)

Hi Kik,

Nice division here with clouds, light, see and foreground. Combines nicely and I know what you mean that this type of sky is quite typical. I added a workshop to reduce the noise in the clouds. Hope you like it! Thanks for sharing this one.

Greetings, Dennis

A creative busy compo Kik, that triangle in the lower left gives an abstract look, and the colors and silhouettes back there are really fascinating, regards, Daniel

erg mooie foto
de lucht is echt super

johnfreeman (2222) 2007-12-27 15:51

Hello Kik,
Beautiful light and very interesting composition. The dune brings an interesting diagonal element into the picture and makes it more geometric, a kind of study in lines rather than simply a sea sunset. The group of people fishing on the right provides balance and the sailing boat on the horizon creates a nice sense of scale and depth. I shall certainly visit your gallery to see more of these Dutch skies!
Good work!
John

I could give you a million points just for the title...
I loove Holland sooo much, especiall the south in Zeeland.
Sunsets on white beaches are my favourite and I'm waiting for that every year.
I like the rays of the sun in your pic.
Greetings from here to the beach!

Hallo Kik,
Dit is een hele mooie. En dan vooral die lucht, die knalt hier echt van mijn scherm. Maar niet te vergeten de compositie met de duin links die een erg mooie diagonale lijn in de foto brengt en een flink stuk diepte, heel mooi.
De mensen op het strand geven een mooi beeld en balans aan de rechterkant. Zelfs de schepen op zee zijn nofg zichtbaar...heel mooi gemaakt.
Groet, Henk

Very dramatic sky, and interesting composition and POV, I like the human figures which make a good contrast and make the picture.
Happy new year !

Hello
Excellent light.. Nice composion with both sharp grass in the fg and also sharp sea. Great, moody picture.
Have a nice day.

clio (23021) 2008-02-06 1:31

Bonsoir Kik,
Great composition, the dune on the left in triangle with spices brings a big originality to this photo. A very beautiful sky, but since I saw sky of the paintings of Van Ruysdael, I know that it is necessary to look at first at the sky when we are in Netherlands!
A very beautiful work on colors.
Congratulations
Diane

Hi Kik,

Very well done!

Very nice Kik. I like the abstract look you have created here as well as capturing the wonderful stormy looking sky and the people on the shore tops it off. It is the fact you have these three elements that the photograph becomes even more interesting. Nice work.

Hello Kik!

Amazing picture.Picture with great feelings.Colors, balance, ingredients, saturation and contrast, everything is A1.
I personally liked the deep penetration of sunlight through thick clouds.I would've enjoyed the moment, if i was there.
Picture of the day for me so far.(Best of luck for future)

Pretty amazing capture, Kiks. Not only the moment is beautiful, but you also did a very creative composition, with this hairy dune at left FG. And a good placement of the fishermen. The rainny/sunny background? Gorgeous.
Best regards,
ricardo

Hoi,

Dankzij jullie kritiek op een foto heb ook ik NeatImage ontdekt. Omdat ik de laatste tijd nogal met scans werk, is dat echt fantastisch. Heel hard bedankt.

Waarom ik dit hier schrijf? Omdat dit een verduveld mooie foto is, vooral die diagonaal vallende duinlijn is subliem...zo twee vang ik twee viegen in één klap: een bedankje en een serieuze pluim voor deze mooie foto.

Groetjes.

Benny

Hi Kiks
Beautiful capture with the fishermen in the fg and the rain in the bg. Lovely yellow tones compliment the blue tones and I like the slope to the left. Very well seen and presented.
Regards
Jim
