Hey Pablo
I really like how the water looks here with the stones in it & reflection of the sky
If it wasn't for the fisherman I would thing it's a painting :)

Hallo Pablo!
An interesting, a beautiful and an inventive picture, and - I think - a perfect one! A really great photo! The inclusion of the flying fishing line is an excellent detail. Great!
Greetings from thundery Germany!

hej pablo,
I found it to be an great fishing image, the kind of pictures that make at least me to longing to moving water and time of adrenalin rushes and neverending nights of undescibable beauty.
skit fiske!

That was a big treat. The composition of this shot is brilliant, i think the placement of the guy here is excellent and i like the isolation here. Great shot, the clarity and sharpness is excellent.

Hello Pablo,

I like this photo, even if it seems not in your style. I like the colour and the transparency of the water, and I like the man at the bottom right with the fishing rod in diagonal. These simple elements are enough to make a plasurable composition.

(I couldn't help but remembering a picture of mine, posted long time ago, an experiment I did that turned to be a failure, probably because the subject was in the center (I put him on porpous there) and not by the side like in yours.
If you want to see it, it's
Here)
All the best,
Donato

Hi Pablo,

The water is cristal clear. The presence of the fisherman has an effect of scale. The reflection of the light on the water is an asset to the composition. The light brings out the best of the colors. The subject is well frame. Have a nice day.

Hi Pablo,
Wonderful to see such a clear water mountain stream. Composition with the fly fisher is excellent from your high viewpoint. I think this is oversharpened though. I like the way sparkles show on water but waves have somewhat lost their soft appearance.

Hei Pablo,

A wonderful fly fishing shot. I love the high POV and the crystal clear water. Also perfect timing just before the line will be stretching out in its full length. Also a very good note. You never know if the most skillful casters are the best fishermen. TFS and have a nice evening!

Cheers,

A fine action shot with a fish to be caught momentarily. Good idea to show only the water without shoreline and other distractions. Good on and TFS. Gerald

I really like the composition it's very balanced and easy to look at. I think there is a little too much glare on the water in the scene though for my liking.

Hi Pablo,

fantastic shot! the view of the clear water is amazing. splendid composition, colours and reflection. It seems a big river on the main photo and not so big in WS. I can not imagine that you can catch such a big fish. Perfect photo

Hi Pablo,

It look like he is fly fishing. Nice image showing this fine hobby. The image is well composed and the details, specially the sparkling of the water, very pleasant. I bet this place is very good for spending time outdoors. Thanks Pablo.

Excellent simple and effective compo, I like a lot the shining water with its various colors and textures. It is rather hot now in Ploiesti and this makes me envy the happy guy that stays in this nice sunny place (and pleasantly cool, I presume), admire the beautiful river and finally gets the big fish :)

Very good image of the fisherman. I like the way you have framed it so the fishing line is diagonally agross the scene, leading our eye to the top left corner. The water is so clear we can see the stones on the bottom of the river. Well done

Hi Pablo .
A fantastic shot!
An impressing diagonal with the fly fisher in action and another diagonal in the sliding colours from deep blue to golden of the cool clear water, the rippeled surface and the undisturbed look to the bottom of the river makes this photo outstanding !
Have a nice weekend !

I looked to both picture in WS, the fish is spectacular, a pity that us friend carper is with vacation, this is also a very great specialist fisherman.

nice shot, the moment when the man casts the hinge is very well captured, the water looks very nice and it must have been a nice, sunny day to go fishing or, as in your case, take pictures. A well done shot!

I don't know nothing about this sport, but seeing this movement and your note, I would love to watch a contest...amazing sized salmon in WS - look how happy he is :D The quality? It's excellent for my standards ;-)

Hi Pablo. Wonderful clear water and excellent timing to catch the peak of the action but no fish, that’s why its called fishing not catching. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

I had a look at the huge fish in your workshop and I don't want to detract from the exploit....but I can layer in a picture a larger one!!

Hi,
The POV os great! We passed through I think on our way up North, a bit earlier though, mid May. Nobody was fishing, and there was no salmon in sight. Nevertheless, the landscape was very impressive.
Greetings,
John

Hi Pablo,
Salmon fishing on a fly rod ... this would be a challenge considering the size of a sea run salmon. I like your minimalist approach here with great effect. This is a very dynamic shot with the fisherman casting his line. It makes the viewer wonder ... did he caught a fish? A fine presentation and very well captured scene. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Quality is fine, Pablo, but I can just imagine what the large file looks like (posterized!) - you captured the line cast very well. So what if he didn't catch any, you certainly caught good action here!
Cheers
Otto

Hello Pablo
Norway is beautiful, this is a stunning fishing shot, I love to do a bit of fishing myself, best I have ever caught was a 40lb halibut in the Pacific many moons ago. Its a great fishing action shot, worthy of appearing in them fishing magazines for sure. Composed superbly with great colours and clarity in the water, but the fishing line itself jumps out from the capture, amazing detail all round, its a great action capture Pablo. Well done
Regards
Jim

Hello Pablo, very nice shot of this fisherman. He's perfectly positioned in the frame and you show him in excellent sharp detail, complete with his flying line. This is a deceptively simple looking shot, captured in a superb manner. I see now we are allowed 300K in TE. It's about time.

Thanks, John

Hi Pablo,
Perfect framing with the fisherman and his line making a strong diagonal line. I love the way you captured the loop the gleaming in the air. Looks like a perfect Spey cast, even though the wide-open river doesn't require its virtures. Your excellent light management shows in the clarity of the water.
HLJ, Pat

The water flowing on the rocks is very well captured, with its reflections and shadows. Well positioned the fisherman, but I must confess that I don't like fishing (as hunting as well)....
Wishes, Diana

Hej Pablo,
The movement, the clear water and the fishing line makes it one of your best in my opinion.

hello Pablo,
this is a wonderful composition with the blue line casting a diagonal.The colouring and dappling of the water is so pretty too.I like so much these kind of compositions, which are both informative and artistic too. A topical subject for me as my husband has recently taken up fly fishing. Having been an haaf netter on the Solway Firth for over thirty years ( haafing was introduced to Scotland by the vikings) he is now learning to fly fish. Yesterday he came home with an empty bag, although two experienced fly fishers fishing alongsie him caught salmon. He very much admired one of the men, whose casting technique is superb. I must show him your workshop image of the big slamon. Perhaps once a year he will catch a twenty pounder in his haaf beam, but not this year..at least not yet.But there is two weeks to go...
regards
Bev

A bientôt sur TE pour de nouvelles aventures.

Am I watching a movie, Pablo?
The action , the drama, the mood, just transports to this location amd I like diving deep to cach a fish.

A lovely minimalistic composition that really catches both the dynamic quality of the water and the fisherman.
Great colours and sunlight on the water.
Well done!
