Photographer's Note
This picture was taken at Rio Sabana two days ago (Saturday) near the town of Bayaguana in the province of Monte Plata about one and a half hour drive from Santo Domingo in the southeastern part of Dominican Republic, we were spending the day with friends and families in a beautiful farm and I was able to walk along the side of the Rio Sabana and enjoy the wild view that surround the area. This is a part of Dominican Republic that not many people have visited.
I will be away for two weeks and I won't be posting any pictures during this period.
Hoping you like it.

Hola amigo mio,
Estupenda la luz de este magnífico lugar con ese cantarino río que se desplaza en pequeñas cascadas. Todo un placer para los sentidos oir correr el agua. Excelentes colores y detalles.
Un fuerte abrazo,
Charo

It looks like a very pleasant place to spend some time. The light is strong but any o-e on the waterfall is kept to a minimum. I love the milky turquoise colour of the water.
I hope your absence is for pleasure.

Bonsoir, mon ami Emile,
Quand je vois ce genre d'image, je fonds de plaisir ! une envie irrésistible de tout abandonner et de venir rejoindre au plus tôt ce lieu paradisiaque !
C'est beau, c'est grand, cela laisse rêveur !
Merci de nous donner du baume au coeur !
Amitiés.

Hola Emile,
En esta foto haz captado el espiritu de la naturaleza dominicana. Aqui estan todos los detalles de las cosas que añoro de la isla. Por otro lado, hay un detalle en tu workflow que esta sobre-procesando las imagenes ligeramente, especialmente en las areas brillantes. Primero pense que era mi monitor, pero ahora que esta calibrado se hace mas evidente.
Que pases buenas vacaciones con la familia,
Un abrazo,
Enrique.

Hola amigo Emile,
desde luego que tu foto nos ofrece la visión de un lugar no muy visitado por los turistas, parece todavía bastante salvaje y virgen, manteniendo su belleza natural.
Tu armónico encuadre cerrado sobre este bonito rincón, la fuerza estética del agua que se mueve suavemente, la luz, y los colores intensos, dan un gran nivel a la composición, que es atractiva y elegante.
Bello trabajo, gracias a ti podemos conocer rincones de tu pais que seguramente no conoceríamos como turistas.
Un fuerte abrazo y cariños para Rosa,
Josep
PS: buen viaje a Miami y disfruta de la familia y del descanso.

Hola Emile, what can be better than spend a day in the wild with such bucholic environment. I can hear the relaxing sound of the water and just want to sit on that rock with both feet in the water - the best free massage one can have on the feet - close my eyes and feel the warm sun burning on my face. What can be better than a day like this? Thanks for this lovely moment and wish you an excellent time for the next two weeks.
Un abrazo,
ricardo

Bonjour Emile,
Il y a certainement beaucoup à voir et à découvrir en R.D.
Mais il faut aussi être bien guidé.
Les touristes sont attirés par les beautés de la Capitale et les plages paradisiaques et ne cherchent pas plus. C'est certainement dommage.
Cet endroit est d'une beauté sauvage, il ne manque que le bruit de l'eau.
Amicalement
Jean-Luc

Hola Emile!
Belle prise de vue et le bel éclairage met bien en évidence cette belle rivière. Je crois que j'enlèverais mes chaussure et que j'essayerais de la traverser à pied pour me rafraîchir. Les couleurs me font rêver, elle sont merveilleuses. Bonne composition et intéressante note.
Félicitations!... et bonne soirée,
Emilius

Hola Emile,
Una foto que invita una visita a ese lugar poco representado aquí en TE. El sol y las sombras oscuras podrían ter causado muchos problemas, pero admirablemente eso no ocurre, lo que permite que apreciemos toda la belleza de los colores del agua e de la floresta.
Espero que tu ausencia sea por placer, oh por lo menos no sea motivada por algo menos bueno. Cuido que tu brazo ya estés bien del brazo.
Un fuerte abrazo, José.

Hello Dear Emile,
This is a gorgeous image, inviting as any that I've seen. With the warm temperatures that must prevail in the Dominican Republic, I imagine one could step into that water without any hesitation. The composition and colors are quite spectacular. Warm regards,

Hello Emile
The turquoise water is very appealing. A good POV low down along the curve of the waterfall. Well exposed as well. Like the autumn leaves on the stones in the FG. Well done!
Best Regards
