Hello Robert,
what a nice picture of these beach chairs. I like your POV and the sky in the background.
The black & white version is probably the best choice for this scenary.
Regards,
Helmut

Hello Robert, excellent shot, great choice of black and white nice contrasts and a clever title. The light very well managed and the composition superb. Thanks for sharing.
Best regards,
Kostas.

Hi Robert,
this composition looks really "old fashioned" as if it was taken 50 years ago. A very fine impression of this beautiful beach! (I know of course the place and I do not like the holiday centre...)
TfS!
Best regards
Harriet

Immaculate beast, Robi...
Pixel by pixel by pixel...
And, if I am missing anything in this production of yours is the rest of that lady behind the shelter...

My approach would be: Hello, beautiful... Here I am... Right here... A coo-coo.. Psst...Psst...
And I would get either : Get the phuk out of here, you pervert or: I'd get a great smile on the sun drenched beach of Fehmarn Island

A full smile from me without asking me to do it...

Salut Robert,
I like a lot this BW.
The sand is bright, and the graphics are great, in the sky and on the beach.
Regards,
JB.

Now this is very "posh". As usual an excellent B&W toning which is the colour that I imagine the "cabanas"(?) to be. Your POV puts them in diagonal lines and the horizon is perfectly placed on a third.

Südstrand ... Sounds very German and is quite funny to read between your English note. I guess you need the numbers on the beach chairs otherwise you might be lost and I am afraid there is no navigation tool that leads you back to your chair. The only trick is to keep the number :) I really had to smile about George's commentaire with the whole lady he wants to see ... this is what makes this website so much alive. Fantastic photo, it really is, very stylish approach with your b/w treatment and I actually like that you can't see inside the baskets, you kept the privacy and this is what these baskets are for I suppose and keep you out of the sun. Enjoy your Sunday ... Barbara.

Hello Robi. Great textural detail and tonal range. I like the contrast between the bulky, static quality of the shelters and the tiny scurrying figures in the background. An image with a strong whiff of nostalgia!
Best wishes...Maggie

A lot of repetitions and textures here. I like the depth of the prespective too. Strong sky!

hello Robert,

Joli, ce graphisme en noir et blanc. L'endroit semble plaisant. Joli ciel chargé aussi.
Bonne journée

hello Robi,

A very nice shot, timeless with the b&w. Great chairs ! I like the high contrast, it fitts very well with the photo.

This one is very good too - that same hard dramatic light as the kite shot, perfect for B&W.
I think a slightly higher viewpoint might have worked well, so we could have seen a bit more of the goings-on on the beach, but that probably wasn't possible.

Cheers,
Ben
