Good Morning Goncalo,

This is very fine shot, showing great clarity in a wonderful light. The low pov takes every advantage of the textural floor, making an interesting lead to the focal boat.
I like how the tip of the prow of the boat shows up against the sky creatin a good link between m/g and b/g.

Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

dta (98848) 2012-03-13 2:11

Hola Goncalo ,
A superb composition . I like especially the lighting , and the texture of the ground in the FG . Of course , this kind of boat is very picturesque .

Hi Goncalo,beautiful perspective whit a great sense of peace and quiet,i like how to play very well whit the warm light and its shadows,magnificent work! Have a nice day and thanks,Luciano

SnapRJW (31631) 2012-03-13 3:06

Hello Goncalo - course the boat on the stone jetty makes a wonderful subject but it is the light that lifts the scene. Beautiful details in the stone, attractive shadows and contrast. Simple but lovely composition. Warm regards Rosemary

mauro61 (53429) 2012-03-13 3:41

ciao Goncalo,
bella ripresa con la barca protagonista e il mare sullo sfondo.
La luce del sole che va a tramontare conferisce una bella tonalità all'immagine,
buona giornata

Hi Goncalo
superb POV and classic composition. Love the light in this serene view which brings out all the detail and subtle colouring. Beautiful!

Regards - Brian.

josepmarin (59385) 2012-03-13 4:10

Olá, amigo Gonçalo,
la baja luz de una tarde de otoño te ofrecía un momento fantástico para tomar esta foto, por los tonos cálidos y las sombras sobre esta bonita barca que descansa sobre la plataforma, frente a un océano en calma, con unas aguas muy tranquilas.
La composición es muy atractiva, los elementos aportan un buen grafismo, la luz es muy agradable, y los colores están perfectos.
Hiciste un gran trabajo.
Um abraço,
Josep

pierrefonds (114494) 2012-03-13 7:21

Hi Goncalo,

The distance between the boat and the horizon is giving depth to the composition. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the boat. The early evening light is giving nice tints to the colors. Have a nice day.

Pierre

ikeharel (113385) 2012-03-13 9:01

Afternoon shadows play on the scenery, and gave the boat a nice mild tone, Goncalo.
You placed the boat in mid-picture, as main subject, yet the lovely sea-shore decor on BG.
Good details collected,
Boa tardes,
Ike

yquem46 (38752) 2012-03-13 9:55

Ola Goncalo
A nice seascape with a splendid light
I like, besides the boat of course, the person in the water and the pavement at FG
Nice match of the blues, sky and sea, and well composed with a high horizon line
Have a nice evening

maria-v1981 (10966) 2012-03-13 12:59

Hello Congalo,
The boat waiting stoically for the owner to enter the water. A wonderful composition with excellent elements. The atmosphere is so peaceful and calm.
Congrats,
Maria

jemaflor (147184) 2012-03-13 13:43

Hi Goncalo,

Ciao Goncalo,
stupenda composizione con questa barca in primo piano stranamente fuori contesto. Bellissima la trama della roccia su cui è appoggiata, magnifica la luce radente, magica l'atmosfera.
Buon Giovedì

Eu adoro fotos que tem barcos como assunto principal. Essa foto é maravilhosa e o tom meio suave é incrivelmente belo.
Abraços

siolaw (38294) 2012-03-14 0:37

Hi Goncalo
The wide angle did its job there with an interesting effect on the foreground. Subtle light is well controlled and the boat makes for a cool marine compo.
Greetings
Laurent

prasun984 (5590) 2012-03-14 0:42

Hi Goncalo,
simple but powerful framing from sea beach...like the play of warm light over the boat & textured FG...the lonely boat add a fine touch...

ciakgiak (30) 2012-03-14 12:16

Ciao Goncalo,
Un soggetto semplice, comune a noi tutti, può sempre diventare oggetto di foto bellissime come in questo caso. Barca ben inserita nella scena, composizione molto attraente per i bei colori e per la sua naturalezza. Eccellente la qualità, ma non è una novitá.
Un caro abbraccio
Giorgio

Perfect use of the wide lens for this low POV shot. The mud cracks lead to the boat. Only when we see the small person in the BG, do we get an idea of the scale
Good work!
Um Abraco

Oi Gonçalo,
Eu fui para Sesimbra, muito tempo atrás, em 1972. O barco em primeiro plano e caminhantes dar profundidade à composição. A luz é linda. As cores e nitidez são excelentes. Bravo.
Boa tarde.

kato (11630) 2012-03-15 13:51

Hello Goncalo,

You're capturing well this seashore by a good composition and very excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see beautiful contrast of the beach, sea and sky. The light is managed well by tasteful touch and the boat put on the good position in this image. And, the boat's shadow projected to rock ground draws out additional good effect as well as color layers of sea surface.

Kind regards,
mikio

Waylim (25436) 2012-03-15 19:05

Ola Congcalo,

Very nice shot, great composition, with perfect placement of everything, the boat, the horizon, the little people, beautiful sunset colors, not overly saturated. Just pure and natural.

beautiful scenery with the boat to be pulled out of the sea and resting on the stone floor near the sea.I like the pale light,the lonely man, with his entering in the sea to adds life in the image.

Have a good weekend,danos

Hello Congalo,

Heel mooi en heel goed dat je de voorgrond
mee hebt betrokken: het maakt de foto
spannender en de lijnen in de stenen creeëren
een mooie diepte. Verdeling is heel goed,
idem de belichting.

Vriendelijke groeten,
Robert
