Recently a boy died drowned in the Imboassica Lagoon after be stucked in aquatic plants. Since then the Swimming in the Lagoon is Forbidden. However the place is still used for fishing, stand up paddle and for the jetsky practicers.

Hello Andre,

I speak not the language but the sign is perfect swimming is forbidden.
But the man of his surfboard has other planning.
Sharpness and clarity are perfect.
Nice presentation excellent captured.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Bonjour Andre,

J'aime bien le lien entre la pancarte d'interdiction de baignade et l'homme au loin debout sur sa planche. J'aime bien le choix de la profondeur de plan.

Amicalement

Serge

Ola Andre!
Vendo bem, ele nao esta a desrespeitar as regras, mas que isso deve ser bem perigoso, deve. Boa composicao, com o aviso bem colorido em primeiro plano.
