The entrance to the Brennand Institute, a photo from Pernambuco, Northeast

Photographer's Note

Please see in large view

We arrived at the Institute before the opening and had to wait outside for a while. In the WS photo you will see the friendly taxi driver who was at the door of Hotel Jangadeiros (5 km from Guararapes International Airport) at Praia de Boa Viagem and who brought us at a combined price and entered with us and waited for us all the time until we left . This entrance is charming with its coconut trees lined up as far as the eye can see. In the next photo I will show you we could see beside thes coconut trees.

Chegamos ao Instituto antes da abertura e tivemos que esperar um pouco do lado de fora. Na foto do WS voc� ver� o simp疸ico taxista que ficava na porta do Hotel Jangadeiros (5 km do aeroporto internacional Guararapes) na Praia de Boa Viagem e que nos trouxe a um pre輟 combinado e entrou conosco e esperou por n o tempo todo at� que part﨎semos . Esta entrada � encantadora com seus coqueiros enfileirados � perder de vista. Na prima foto mostrarei o que n vimos do lado destes coqueiros.

Ola Ricardo!
A perfect POV for this fantastic photo with amazing depth.
I like a lot the contrast between these many different green tones, the cobblestone road and this dramatic grey/ blueish sky.
Great shot!!!
Regards,Ronny

Hi Ricardo
After all the snow photos over the last few days it is good to see a good green photo from a warmer climate.
cheers

Ola Ricardo!

Nice repetition of the stately palm trees, with superb using of diminishing linear perspective and vanishing point, & good sharpness and colour. Tfs!

Hi Ricardo,
What a beautiful perspective with this alley and these palm trees, great depth effect, nice green tones, light capture and exposure are well managed, tfs.

Hello Ricardo, It happens quite often that the taxi drivers wait till we visit the place and then return. Fantastic perspective in this alley lined up with the coconut trees. Great composition and colours in spite of the cloudy day.
Best regards Malgo

Hello Ricardo,
The long lines of palm trees and the perfect symmetry of the composition give this photo a superb depth. The dark grey clouds provide a fine backdrop and match the green tones well, probably better than a blue sky would have done. The exposure is excellent. The WS is also nice. I like the black and yellow gates and the lions on the sides. They make that photo very eye-catching.
Best regards,
Gert

Ola Ricardo,
Superbly chosen the spot in the middle of the trees "boulevard", excellent symmetry.
Reckon there are many attractive spots in the Brennand Institute premises, waiting to see more. Found the place on Google-Map at -8.065,-34.962 .
Bom novo dia,
Ike

Hello Ricardo,

This is a fine study in depth and perspective, created by the converging lines and the diminishing size of the trees. It's a fine almost symmetrical pattern.

I like your w/s for the introduction of the focal lions and of course, for the human interest.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

jean113 (27887) 2021-02-18 9:10

Hello Ricardo, an excellent depth of field with the lines of trees meeting at the vanishing point.
Excellent sharp quality.
Kind regards, Jean.

jhm (211736) 2021-02-18 9:20

Hello Ricardo,

You chose an classic angle but always the most beautiful.
Also a lovely detailed view of this area with the much trees to side of the road.
Perfect depth and perspective.
Sharp and clear photographed.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hi Ricardo,

La longueur de la route donne de la perspective et de la profondeur � la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les d騁ails des palmiers et des nuages. La lumi鑽e fait ressortir les couleurs. Bonne journ馥.

Pozdrav.
lepo mesto sa kaldrmom, drvecem i zelenilom, dobro pokazano sa lepim bojama, kontrastom, perspektivom i dobrim tekstom.
Lepa fotografija i deo instituta, dobro uhvacen trenutak sa oblacima koji dolaze i donose kisu.
Lepo mesto za setnju u hladu velikog drveca.
Zelim vam sve najbolje.
Paja.

Hello Ricardo,
A great perspective down the long road. It gets even stronger thanks to the double row of palm trees, which also stand out well from the cloudy sky.

Hi Ricardo,
it seems to be well taken care off.
The architecture was nice and now we see a lovely avenue leading to the institute. The palm trees are so elegant and neatly aligned next to each other.
The sky quite cloudy but not less beautiful.
Fantastic symmetrical capture.
Excellent work,
M

PaulVDV (62944) 2021-02-22 11:45

Hello Ricardo,
Wonderful lane!
The two rows of palm trees create an excellent perspective.
The rain clouds provide a beautiful backdrop.
Best regards, Paul

Hola Ricardo.
Que maravillosa perspectiva de esta recta carretera, que parece perderse en el horizonte, las los hileras de palmeras me parece fant疽tico, que preciosidad.... es uno de mis arboles favoritos, todo este verde destaca muy bien de ese cielo amenazador de nubes grises.
Magn凬ica gesti de la luminosidad y de la nitidez, para disfrutar con los detalles.
Que tengas un buen dia.
Saludos muy cordiales.
Luis.
