Está muito gira, esta do Comandante. talvez um pouco simétrica demais no que diz respeito a mar e céu. Mas, as cores são bonitas e a expressão do teu "Captain" valeu a pena.

Hi Rui,

Excellent simplistic shot. I love the the perfect blue sky and see and the funny expression on the face of the captain.

Cheers,

Ulf

Composicao perfeita referente a colocacao do capitao, Rui. A simetria do mar e ceu deveria ter sido um pouco mais dando enfase a um dos dois. Gostei desta expressao facial do capitao. Ate parece que ele esta bem preocupado com algo que nao podemos ver.
Abracos, Peter

Olá Rui,
Realmente parece que tiveste sorte com um dia magnífico, um belo mar azul. Esse mar d'canal, entre São Vicente e Santo Antão, por vezes é brabo mesmo; apesar da relativamente curta travessia, há muita gente que enjoa.
Nho comandante também ficou muito bem.
Um abraço,
Francisco

nice expression on the cap, the sky and water are beautiful. I do, however, feel the composition missing something on the left hand side.

i hope you had a great trip Rui!

Ola Rui,
You are really getting the 'stink-eye' from this captain. With excellent light management, you captured great clarity in the blues of the ocean and the sky in spite of clearly harsh light. The curving bit of boat with the scowling captain makes a good focal point.
SAA, Pat
