Lovely dedication to your sister, and she deserved it!
The curves on the sand, and the people over there, make a great compo. Compliments for this original photo.

Hello Leonor

First, I was sure it was a Smarcell's shot.
He made some great graphical shots on the seaside and I think it was one of them... Happy to see that you are two good observers !

Your framing is very effective to bring the strong graphism of the natural elements out, and the group of persons add life in that scene.
Excellent composition, compliments.

Regards
Karine

Olб, Leonor!

Um lugar que tф precisando voltar й o Sul (nunca fui ao Sul do paнs com uma cвmera digital!) e sentir um pouco de frio novamente. Apesar de que sua foto passa mais a sensaзгo de calor tambйm, pela praia. Gostei muito da composiзгo, com os padrхes de montes de areia, e com cores muito bonitas. Belo trabalho!

Leonor, aqui vocк arrasou mesmo! As areias formando pontas mais parecem dedos tentando invadir o mar. As cores estгo sensacionais e a nitidez fantбstica. Amei sua foto. Estб linda demais. Parabйns!

asajernigan (21427) 2009-09-24 17:03

Leonor,
This is a nice shot of this fine beach. The repeating pattern created by the carved out semicircles lead the eye through the shot. The lighting and colors are great as is the photo has excellent sharpness.
TFS,
Asa

belido (19934) 2009-09-24 17:24

Olб Leonor,

belнssimo grafismo vocк conseguiu registrar aqui. Nota-se jб no thumbnail o seu senso fotogrбfico. A maneira como vocк enquadrou, o вngulo fechado, tudo isso ajudou a enfatizar as curvas da areia molhada e das ondas. Ambas parecem estar fazendo alguma danзa sincronizada. Уtimo trabalho fotogrбfico!
Abraзo,
Carlos

ribeiroantonio (22730) 2009-09-24 17:47

Pozzdrav iz Cuprije.
Lepo je setiti se i spomenuti.
Mnogo lepa plaza.
Dobra fotografija, boje i ostrina snimka.
Pravi trenutak snimka.

Sve najbolje, Paja.

pablominto (53746) 2009-09-24 22:32

Hello Leonor,

This is lovely!
I notice how the sea has created this amazing pattern in the beach, the winding shoreline has a great impact in the image...
The human factor is well taken care of, the colours can't be any better, all well done!

Greetings,
Pablo -

Dashab (2564) 2009-09-24 23:11

Hello Lenor,
Very nice curves, very nice composition and good POV. It was a good idea to include people to give the viewer an idea about the proportion of these "formations". Cheers, Dasha

InasiaJones (31566) 2009-09-24 23:28

Hi Leonor,

A beach scene out of the ordinary, with highly graphic content mixed with human interest.

Your elevated point of view allows to display this natural sinuous design, while catching these "end-of-the-day" long shadows.

Very eye-catching scene!

Andre

bostankorkulugu (42866) 2009-09-24 23:33

very eye-catching indeed with the grahic forms on the beach and with the vivid colours... all the best leonor...

Wanda1 (15142) 2009-09-25 0:34

Hi Leonor,
The patterns formed by the water and the sand are simply great. The shot is well balanced with the proportions between sea and sand and the golden and blue colours compliment one another well. Nice that you have some people going about their beach activities to complete the shot.
Regards
Wanda

Olа Leonor,

Excellent framing and composition very well balanced. An image very dynamic, very graphic, full of rythm. Nice colors too and textures of the sand and of the sea well colected. The peoples give a plesant element of life and an interesting idea of the scale of the place.
Amizades,

snunney (130967) 2009-09-25 1:17

Hello Leonor,
A good capture of this lovely sandy beach; the patterns formed by the incoming waves are quite fascinating. I also like the cool/warm tonal contrasts. The people are well included and help create a nice mood. Thanks for sharing.

what a nice composition. The water of sea created here nice curves in sand followed by the shore. Great depth and sharpness. Nice colour contrast between ocean blue and sandy golden. Nice to see with those people. Congratulation and tfs.

Hi Leonor,

Fascinating rhythm in this play of low and high tide. I’ve never seen such a strange regular repetition on a sand beach and I’m living 5km. from one.

Hi Leonor,
Interesting effect of the waves on this beach. What causes this pattern?
Good colors and nice light. I like how you devided your photo between sea and dry sand. The combination of the dynamic range of the wet sand and these fingers are a very nice part of this photo.
Well done!
Harko

Leonor,
as linhas sinuosas da areia da praia estгo уtimas e formam um belo conjunto. As pessoas na praia tambйm quebram de maneira muito agradбvel a regularidade do tema. Seu POV mais alto tambйm ficou excelente.
Grande abraзo,
Wagner.

riclopes (35577) 2009-09-28 2:17

Oi Leonor, estou a tentar regressar devagar ao TE depois de muitas dificuldades de ligaзгo а internet. O problema de base agora deriva do facto de estar a viver numa casa de campo onde a ligaзгo telefуnica й difнcil de manter.
Fantбstica esta escultura natural de areia. A luz de fim de tarde estб bem bonita e claro que gosto de ver a inclusгo das pessoas em especial o pescador vestido de azul que quase parece ter sido o autor da obra de arte que se estende а sua frente ;-)
um abraзo,
ricardo

john1 (4028) 2009-09-28 13:30

Hi Leonor,

A beautiful beach scene with the come and go in waves.
People bring life to composition.
the colors are really fun to watch, whether sea or sand.
And the effect of waves on the sand are excellent.
Very nice perspective, too, thank you for us to share.
Good evening.

Hello Leonor

Good repetition of the scalloped ridges along the beach with a superb color contrast between the blue & yellow. Excellent sharpness & the inclusion of the fisherman & people adds life. Tfs!

feather (51130) 2009-09-29 7:06

I love this shot. The patterns made by the waves is fantastic. When we note the people on the beach we can see that the scale is quite big. The tight framing on a small portion of teh scene is a good idea.
Kath

adramad (72626) 2009-10-01 3:36

Hola Leonor.
Fantastica esta perspectiva de la playa con estas curiosas ondulaciones, desde luego la naturaleza crea los mas bellos efectos. Me gusta la inclusion del grupo de personas le da la dimension real al grandioso panorama, precioso colorido con gran viveza.
Un abrazo.
