reflections, a photo from Sumatera Barat, Sumatra

Photographer's Note

I ask my self when this man was going to fish that morning what he was thinking to him self.

Was he wondering how many fish he would capture or realizing that he has leaving in one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Ps
its my #200 picture today I was not aware of it (thank you Kate) and its TE 3rd birthday as well
What a coincident

And its TE痴 3rd birthday as well
Wow

Hi Ishai

one is certain - he did not realize that it was one of the most beautiful places in the world, no way if he was one of the locals;
had he already caught any fishes?
the place seems to be really marvellous, and i like the intensive blue;
vertical compo works very well here;
good shot;
best wishes, jerzy
ps. few days ago you announced an e-mail being sent to me; until today nothing received :-(

Nice spotted. For me the center of the photo are clouds, more that a small boat. They are more interesting and effective than small pointed boat.
Nice shot.

Beautiful shades of blue. I think you have so many great hues of blue. Its a gorgeous photo, well presented, well composed. The care and work is obvious. What a fantastic place, such beautiful nature.

wow. your composition is amazing. The colors too. There is a lack of contrast on the mountain which looks unatural but maybe that is the way it looked in real life. Really nice. JP

Wonderful, almost duo-colour work, Ishai!
I like the colours a lot - they add to this man's solitude during his hours spent fishing.
And the nature is so calm and quiet,
Robi

Hi Ishai!
Nice shot of beautiful place.I like blue colours in different tones.Very good composition.

pitai (3985) 2005-10-04 15:03

Wow!!! Isha, I love the colors, and the POV. I like that the composition is made of all kinds of blue shades. The reflection is also wonderful. However the image sharpness is not the best. And you are right the place is beautiful.

Gabriel
