Absolutely stunning blue. The boat with the people almost look crowded. It also offers a colour contrast.
The horizon os sharp and straight .... and the hazy hill in the background adds a definite mood to the photograph.
The thick dark framing at the top and bottom is appropriate.
Thanks for sharing, Jean. Have a nice weekend.

Hi Jean
I love the deep blues in this, and the splash of color given to the scene from the fishermen on their way out to see. They look so small in the scene, and the sea and island look huge. Love the central composition and the height of the island, it looks very imposing. Like something from legend!
All the best
Noel

Ciao Jean
ancora uno splendore delle Seychelles anche se in questa hai dato priorit� al colore locale rispetto alle qualit� turistiche delle isole.
Ne hai fatto una bella composizione nella quale mare e cielo si dividono lo spazio del fotogramma con i loro toni ricchi di azzurro lasciando alla barca il compito di rompere la monocromia con la loro bella presenza.
Complimenti.
Ciao e buon inizio di settimana
Romano

Je crois que tu as d嶴� tout bien r廥um� dans la note.
Une photo qui 憝oque et qui est graphique avec sa composition avec peu d'幨幦ents, mais tous plac廥 au bon endroit.
En bonus, la discr彋e train嶪 du bateau qui elle aussi guide le regard dans l'image.

Yves.

Bonjour Jean,

Quel beau paysage � admirer, confortablement 彋endu sur sa chaise de plage, avec ces p璚heurs qui se dirigent au large pour animer la sc鋝e. Une tr鋊 belle composition.

Bonjour jean,

ta serie des Seychelles est impitoyable. Ca fait envie de suivre tes pas, meme sans appareil. Tu as deja fait de belles photos de cet endroit. Je souligne ma modeste ambition: de toucher ce sable, cette mer et de poster une carte postale. Pour me vanter. Amicalement,

Branko

Hello Jean,

We get a picture 50/50 not the normal format for a landscape picture.
Notwithstanding is your picture a pleasure to look at.
The small fisher boat and the silhouette of the mountain in background cares for a attractive picture.
Also a very nice choice of your angle this cares for depth and perspective.
Excellent composition, lovely presentation.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hi Jean,
A picture with many attractive blue colours! The little boat and the people add more colours. The boat is also perfectly positioned in the picture, going into the scene from the third. This is a very good picture!
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hello Jean

A nice minimalist shot of just the sea sky and boat. Good sharpness and density levels with a pleasant deep blue throughout contrasting against the yellow and red colors of the people's attire and objects on the boat. The bg mountain makes a fine focal point. Tfs!

Subhogen (4067) 2013-11-19 6:47

Hi Jean,
Another stunning shot of the ocean. The Horizon perfectly bisects your photo. The ocean perhaps has all the possible shades of blue. Magical isn't it? The yellow t-shirt of the fisherman adds a little cheer to the otherwise overriding melancholic blue tone of the photo.
Regards,
Subho

gildasjan (43826) 2013-11-19 10:20

Bonsoir Jean
Bleu,bleu et bleu et cette variation est parfaitement bien vue pour mettre en valeur la touche de jaune qui cr嶪 la bonne compl幦entarit� des couleurs.
Bonne soir嶪

Bonsoir Jean,
a vast, calm and beautiful blue environment that looks timeless and fascinating in your composition. I like very much the placement of the little boat with the three men in the frame. There's a fine play of diagonals in this tiny part in the scenery, the colours and the postures are very attrative too. I love the distant island in the background, it makes the sense of depth even more effective and provides great reference. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Salut Jean
Jolie sc鋝e
Vu la diff廨ence de contraste l'螿e doit 皻re loin des p璚heurs
Bon cadrage de la barque en point fort
Amicalement

eldancer1 (36343) 2013-11-20 9:32

Beautiful seascape! I like the inclusion of the fishermen, it provided scale. Good lighting and dof with nice details. Wonderful colors. Well done, tfs.

mcmtanyel (58830) 2013-11-21 11:24

Hello Jean,
An iconic photo with a lone fishing boat sailing into the distance. The yellow T-shirt on the sailing boat stands out in the sea (all puns intended) of blues. What peaceful bliss!
Regards,
MT

Bonsoir Jean.

La distance entre la barque et l'ile donne d ela profondeur a la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les details et les couleurs de la barque et de l'ile au loin. La qualite de la lumiere embellit les couleurs de l'image. Il n'y a pas d'accent en raison du clavier espagnol ou anglais. Bonne soiree.

jean

the huge mountain-island is impressive at distance and the presence of these colored fishers in the foreground created a marvelous contrast with the blue mood of the compo. nice job.
