Photographer’s Note
We travel along the track
Sand and shells
Sounds are alternated
To spit of land
At cap Timirist
the sea changes of color
and closes to the south
the region of the Banc d' Arguin.
Several succulents covers the sand ground
A green spot after several days...
The lagoon around
hosts several species of birds
And their flight to the horizon
Reminds me that my travel is ending.
Gray sky and wind
Also the air is cold
Nearly to emphasize
the desolation of the poor villages…
On the beach
the color of a woman’s dress
Who awaits for someone
Along the shore
gives me the yellow color
of a sun that today I will not see...

This is very dramatic with the junk things and the presence of a woman there. Plus, the flying bird is interesting, making the scene more into live. Well done. Sothy

Hi Luca
what a beautiful still life portrait, in really pleasing light. The composition is excellent, I like the feeling of tranquillity and peace; all is still except for the movement of the bird. Lovely photo!

Dear Luca,
This human beeing seems to look at this bird (being in a perfect place of the picture). Great decisive moment! Just go on like this!
have a nice day

The smooth tones and colors are very pleasant on this shot. I was a little surprized in Mauritania by the lightning very soft on the seaside, mainly due to the clouds generated by the sea.
I like the seagull making a link between the woman and the boat aground on the beach.

Hi Luca,
Lovely scene, full of softness.
Lovely soft tones and soft light.
The woman in yellow and the seagull add a plus to the composition.

Hi Luca!
Mauretania seems to be a fantastic place with great light for photography as Myanmar.But I think it`s yourgood talent for seeing the situation and clicking from the right point and at the right moment.
This is a wonderful stillife if I can call it so with livingelements.
Everything perfect here,light,colors sharpness....
I´m back since nearly two weeks ,it`s grey and very cold and I wish to be there.....or there ...or there...
Best regards,Leo

Ciao Luca,
solo una parola: bellissima!
Sembra un'immagine sospesa nel tempo con la ragazza che fissa l'uccello in volo circondata da elementi che parlano di un tempo che passa.
Bellissimi colori tenui ed una nota di merito per aver saputo rendere così bene il cielo "difficile" di queste parti.
Alberto
