what a powerful head and strong neck muscles to create a huge bay for the island!

captivating colors Jerzy. the thumbnail shouts "open me, open me". and the simplicity and power of forms and colors are almost in the style of Gaugin.

that's gooood...

hello Jerzy,
colours is what attracted me immediately, I like a lot the blinding blue, and how it makes the brown and yellor colours stand out. but I'd add "decisive moment" as a categry, you've captured the perfect moment when the painting on the wall seems to swallow the unsuspecting man :) that's what colours do, they devour you without you noticing :) thanks for this contribution :)

with best regards,
Kristine

Bonsoir Jerzy,
Quel superbe cadrage et que de jolies couleurs saturées à souhait. Très bien fait.

A lovely picture with vivid colors..

ribeiroantonio (22730) 2008-04-21 17:47

Beautiful! The painting of the island looks like a huge gold nugget over a blue surface. The placement of the man is excellent and if you look carefully we can see another child behind him. The bright colours are a good reflection of the Cape Verde soul. Thanks for that.

Hi Jerzy,
a feast of colours and the positioning of father and sun is fabulous, his head fitting perfectly in the map.
Great work.

Hello Jerzy,
Great, father's head is at a accurate position expected, and a lovely gesture of child's hand. I really like this image. Thanks for sharing.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Super, Jurek...
Te dwa osobniki, mlody i starszy, swietnie sa wkomponowane w tlo, lepszego ich rozmieszczenia sobie nie wyobrazam.
Pozdrawiam. Grazyna.

Hi Jerzy,
You're so right: perfect picture if one wants to speak about people, colors, skins, places and the earth.
Cheers, my friend

Hi Jerzy,
Simple yet so effective. A lesson in photography I would say, and I know I am using your terms. Although they are certainly not , it looks as if the characters have been put at the right places like a chess boars.

Witaj Jerzy.

Again a clever composition and this time with strong and powerful colours. And they add a nice and interesting contrast.

Well done.

xuaxo (6854) 2008-04-23 15:14

Yes, Jerzy, that's colour! The blue sea of Cape Verde, plus the brown land.
The man's head is interestingly framed by the bay of the map of São Nicolau Island.
Regards,
F

A wonderful sight, gorgeous colors and great graphic composition. Delightful, I love the way you have composed this, the man with his head below the map, the kid. A most cheerful piece of life !
