Carpe Diem!, a photo from Sumatera Barat, Sumatra

Photographer's Note

The golden time for the local people; a pedicab man and his son who were enjoying the late afternoon after working all day (and usually continued before the Maghrib - Muslim call to prayer)

Also let me include one of my favorite quote here ;)
"The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have." ~ Ari Bernstein

Enjoyyy...n thanks for stopping by :)

warmth greetings,
Ryca

Hello Caroline - Welcome to TE. You have posted an attractive little gallery of sunsets images and of the four I cannot choose a favorite. I like 'Reflection of Colours' very much as you have managed the light really well and I love the reflections and overlapping movement in the waves.
This is such fun and I admire your timing very much. Colours are glorious and the 'action' perfectly captured. Warm regards Rosemary

Hi Caroline!

You really managed to capture happy and careless moments of a father and a son. Although we cannot see their faces for sure they must have been enjoying those moments together.
Happy New Year!

Hi Caroline,
like the framing by the car riding by the man with his son at the beach...lovely golden touch at sun set time...lovely texture sky above the sea...
good chosen POV with nice color contrast & sharpness...
great silhouette work...

Wow, so many great shots in your gallery, Carolina. This one is pure joy, not only for the boy in the sidecar, but also for us watching this shot. Superb orange golden sunset colours, terrific silhouette, perfect timing.

Both thumbs up from me & a big cheers.
