Labor Day, a photo from Parana, South

Photographer's Note

Well, this was exaclty the last chance to have a pleasant day on the beach here in southern Brazil. Why? Just because it was the last breath of summer...
The day after this shot was the first cold day here in southern Brazil, and the temperatures fall from nice 24C to "unbeachble" 12C. Lucky us to have this nice day on the Labor愀 Day Hollidays. From now, we will have temperatures falling to zero celcius, with some warm days here and there.
Nice Summer to you in the North!
Nice Winter to you in the South!

Hey Jose,

Quite a pleasant minimal shot here, some nice blue colours and just in general a pleasant image.

Great simple shot. "Rule of thirds" pitching of your subjects. Bold colours. Nice and sharp.

Congratulations - well done!

Extremely effective. So simple, yet full of impact. The subjects are nicely placed in the frame. As usual, great colours and quality.
Best wishes

Nice colourtone. The composition is suparb and the inclusion of the persons give a good perspective in your photograph.

Hi, Zeca!
A wonderful, but somewhat nostalgic photo! I like your three-color "flag" of light blue, dark blue and yellow. I like the composition. To enhance the effect of the seashore flag I have cropped some of the sky in a workshop...
Thanks for showing!

Minimalist, graphic and good atmosphere. I like the distance you chose for the composition even if I prefer the framing in the WS. The three small waves are a good extra detail.

So simple and yet so appealing. The composition is first class, and the colour tone is perfect and very natural. I like the beach to have only these two people in sight. And there is interest on the horizon with thoese boats. Very effective.
Regards,
Andrew
