Hi Ricardo,
very nice view of this shore. I love the undulating landscape and the small clouds in front of the high cirrus.

Ora aqui temos o Alentejo transformado num campo de golfe à moda de Gleeneagles. Quem precisa das ondas do mar quando o horizonte é formado pelo doce ondular das planícies alentejanas? Nem é tanto a geologia que faz a região, mas a luz que nela incide revelando em cada estação a beleza que Deus deu ao mundo.

Hi Ricardo.

Nice and simple composition, but a good landscape.
The light is superb and gives a very good depth.

Well done.

Hi Ricardo,
What a lovely green, undulating landscape lingering between the slightly clouded sky and the rippling water.
Beautiful horizontal image with strong green elements.

Hi Ricardo,
this is a very good shot. The rolling hills in green tones and the clouds bending along, the perfect layering. If this is not among the best I'm very curious about the rest.

Hope you had a good small relaxing trip in Alentejo. A simple composition, maynot be up there in your usual standards...a good landscape compo, which looks well in pano format. Looks like you've shot against the sun, hence the lack of contrast in the FG..but the sky has come off brilliantly. Look forward for more my friend

Hello Ricardo,
This slowly rolling landscape is very attractive!
A high level of cultivation and the trees scattered all over...
Well framed in a fitting panoramic format, rich colours and fine details!

Olá Ricardo,
I like your three layers of water, land and sky (classical, isn't it?). Even there is nothing of special interest in the landscape, the view is very nice and the quality is excellent. The clear colours and the sharpness and contrasts are marvelous.

Good positioning of the tongue of land in the 1/3 axis. Wonderful blue sky. I like the slight undulation of the green hills. Tfs!

Que sonho! Tu não usaste polarizador, pois não? Mas olha que parece. Aquele azul do céu é fabuloso. Ai o nosso Alentejo! Isto vem acompanhado com queijo de Nisa e vinho de Estremoz, não vem? Benavila! Tenho de lá ir fotografar... ;)

Hi Ricardo,
You made a good choice here to provide such a large proportion of sky, as the hues and textures are dreamy and contribute to a warm ambience over the land, despite the shadowed areas. The rolling nature of the land dotted with little trees and velvety grass combines further with the watery foreground to complete a bucolic scene of peace and serenity. This looks like an excellent place to walk or ride and explore. Well captured, Ricardo...later.

Olá Ricardo,
Eu normalmente não gosto muito de barras e bordas, mas estas aqui ficaram bem para realçar o horizonte ondulado.
Uma boa colecção de nuvens diferentes.

Olá Ricardo,
qué bonito contraste entre los colores y los tonos azules y verdes de este paisaje. Buen encuadre organizando las franjas en tercios, en una composición sencilla y muy agradable, y con buena iluminación, con gran calidad de imagen y de colores.
Me gustan también los bordes negros en el cuadro, realzan la belleza cromática de la foto.
Bien hecha.
Un saludo,
Josep

Olá ricardo,
Vejo que decidiste fazer uma pausa das tuas fotos da India.
esta é muito bonita.
Esse terreno ondulante é fantástico.
E o verde doscampos contrasta na perfeição com o azul do céu e da água.
Gosto deste formato quase panorâmico.

Great view over this landscape with a pleasant, tranquil atmosphere. I like the variety of the view with water, small hills and trees. The clouds in the sky are also very nice, in combination with a fine lighting. Good work, it makes me look forward to springtime even more. :-)

Hi Ricardo,

This very strange landscape looks like a large ground of gulf. These forms which undulate are very pleasant. I like very much framing adapted here. The lights are very beautiful and emphasize well this landscape of water and vegetable. The sky gives much relief. Well seen, cheer.

With my all frienships,

Olá Ricardo,
Ora aí está o resultado de um inverno chuvoso nos campos alentejanos.
Linda esta foto com os campos ondulantes, as arvores a pontuarem aqui e ali os campos e este céu magnifico e a água a completarem este cenário de sonho.
Fica bem.

Ola Amigo:

I like the frame in this picture, give me the effect than I'm looking a piece of film, the contrast of the frame with the sky is so god and the green makes me think in freedom and pure free air.

Exelent picture my friend

Have a nice weekend
