Photographer's Note
This yacht was moored just off the shore from Villa Beach. It was a dream-like setting with the boat bobbing lazily on the waves and the golden clouds on the horizon.

Great work, amazing colours in the sky!! did you use a polarizing filter?? reminds me of the film 'the truman show' when he is in the boat trying to escape, very dream like!

Jonathan this photo looks indeed like a dream. The light is fantastic and the colours and the sky are beautiful. The off center position of the sail boat makes the composition very good. Well done!

Yes, truly a dream-like setting which you captured very well. The colours look extremely original and the composition respects all the golden rules of thirds to a tee. For once I could almost wish for a slight frame (and normally I don't like frames)

I love this one, the colours on the verge of looking unnatural but I like it this way here. The intese blue of the water matches perfectly with the intense gold of the clouds which turns into a pleasent blue of the sky above. The boat itself is perfectly exposed and positioned.
You have a winner here.

Hello Jonathan !
It is a very good picture. I like it very much. There's a good balance beeween the boat and the biggest cloud and colors are simply incredible.

I used to be a meteorologist in a previous job so I am always impressed by good cloud photoes. Whilst it is a good photo of towering cumulus, with a rain shower underneath and cirrus clouds they are also a prefect shape in the perfect position to balance the composition with the boat. Excellent shot

Colours are amazing in this photo. So too the contrast in the clouds, giving so much depth!
The boat is great in the foreground.
Very well done.

Jonathan, by far outstanding!!! What a capture of the oceans realm, the sky and the lonely boat, straight up on 1st place!!!! For me it could very well be Prince Caspians boat in "The Cronicles of Narnia"!

Not only a dream, but a also looks like paradise. The colours are nicely saturated. The clouds formation are impressive. I also like the sharp horizon between sky and sea, which means there is hardly any haze. Great colours and composition.

Excellent photo. The clouds very close to the horizon on the left side are a little too rusty to me, not really natural sunset colors. If they could all be made the color of the clouds on the right, it would be excellent. Very beautiful none-the-less.
