Inflatable raft, a photo from Zanzibar, Est

Photographer's Note

Pour certains, le bonheur c'est simplement un canot pneumatique abandonné par des touristes à la fin de leur séjour !

For some of us, happiness is merely an inflatable raft given away by tourists at the end of their stay !

Ciao dear Patrick,
For us, instead, happiness is to admire this beautiful image, a scene composed and captured perfectly, spontaneous and natural, that shows us the simple joy of these boys. Also fantastic the color of the sea. Great shot, my friend, congratulations!
Ciao, have a nice week!
Paolo

Bonsoir Patrick,

Une belle scène bien lumineuse avec cette lumière que l'on retrouve si souvent sur tes photos et qui donne vraiment envi d'aller faire un tour à Zanzibar.
Une belle utilisation du grand angle pour avoir de la profondeur et qui a soigné la composition avec un bon détachement (presque géométrique) de chacun des éléments de la photo.

Hello Patrick,
I really like the colour of the sea which makes the whole scene look so wonderful. The joy in the children is evident but more than that, it is the symmetry of the composition which looks so nice to me.
Regards,
Manoj

Hi Patrick,

You're capturing well this scene by a good composition and excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see beautiful seaside and people enjoying the sea. Color is unified by gentle soft tone and the light is managed well. And, the color layers of sea draw out good effect. Good scene!

Kind regards,
mikio

Hello Patrick,
Therse colours are mild and marvellous. The composition has a very good balance of three parts, light blue sky, turquoise clear water and the light brown area of shallow, muddy water. The children are very well placed as they are watching those playing with the eye-catching red raft.
Kind regards,
Gert

Really like this image Patrick, the colours are all subtle but blend in with each other extremely well to make a really pleasant image. Even the yellow milky water mixes well with the TE background.

Patrick
Comme tous les grands photographes, on reconnait immédiatement ton style (c'est ce qui fait la différence avec les tâcherons de la photographie comme moi -)). Tu as vraiment l'art de mettre en scène ces moments de vie et créer une atmosphère spéciale en jouant avec la lumière. J'aime vraiment beaucoup cette photo.
Amicalement
JJ

Bonjour Patrick,

This is a simple, but universal photo essay. The youngsters are clearly having wonderful time on the beach. East Africa an area I have never visited, and thanks to you photos, I can get a better idea of the tropical beaches.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Hello Patrick,

Well composed using the rule of thirds with a good exposure on the highlights & still with good shadow detail. The people are evenly spaced around the centre in 5 groups. Good sharpness & punchy light contrasts. Bon semaine!

jhm (134518) 2012-05-07 4:07

Bonjour Patrick,

Technical a very good picture, also the colors of the water in foreground is probably full sand.
Addition of the people gives a specially touch to the picture.
Composition and presentation are nice.
Very well done, TFS.

Amitiés,
John.

Hi Patrick
an expressive image and one that makes you realise how privileged we are living in Europe despite the troubled times we are currently experiencing. This is such a delightful image full of joy, innocence and a wonderfully carefree atmosphere. Executed and composed so superbly. Captivating and thought provoking at the same time.

Regards - Brian.

daddo (22372) 2012-05-07 6:36

Bonjour Patrick.Wonderful shot that captures the joys of childhood adventures and games. I can see and hear the laughter of the boys in the distance and I can detect the anticipation of the boys close to us as they await their turn. The colours and light are as if in a lighthearted dream. I do like the composition, a piece of serendipity for you- three points of interest in the middle and two on either side. Absolument perfet. Amicalement. Klaudio.

Ciao Patrick,
mi scuso con te per la foto che mi hai criticato, foto che ho tolto per un difetto qualitativo di cui mi sono accorto, ti ringrazio comunque tanto.
Molto bello anche quest'ultimo tuo lavoro, perfettamente in linea con l'ultima tua produzione, molto efficace e piena di splendidi colori.
Un caro saluto.
Giorgio

Bonsoir Monsieur Patrick.
Je suis fan du premier plan de cette image, ce coté laiteux, comme si l'image était déchirée...
Superbe.
Bravo.

everlasting (14303) 2012-05-08 1:00

The boys are spaced really well to make this a well balanced composition but I particularly like how the colours blend subtlety into each other from the sand to the sea to the sky.

JFS (32459) 2012-05-10 10:15

Bonjour Patrick,
J'avais pas vue celle-la et c'est une merveille, les figures des garçons donnent un balance fantastique à la belle photo, bonne prise.

Merci et salutations,
Juan

Hello Patrick,

Great point of position: the "line"
of persons and persons in the small
boat creates a very nice depth in
the picture. The light management
is as always gentle soft and the
composition is also great.

Friendly regards,
Robert

best wishes, j.

Hello Patrick,

this image looks very interesting, especially because the feet of the children are hidden in the sandy water. Nice effect and good for composition. TFS, best regards, F.

Bonjour Patrick
L'agencement symétrique des personnages est du plus bel effet et leur couleur contraste joliment avec les tons subtils de la mer.
Magnifique trouvaille de la part des baigneurs et...du photographe!
Amicalement.
Robert
