You Have To Drink Water Photo

Photographer’s Note

"You Have To Drink Water"
Creek Curití - Henhouse Park
......................................................

Dear friends:

In the previous delivery, gave a picture of a ground dry, hot, arid perhaps, but not both, equally beautiful to account for many, including that they write.

Today I give a picture contrary to what I describe what I set out initially, and at the last delivery: Curití Creek, a tributary of the river Fonce in Henhouse Park (Santander); various elements contained in this beautiful Republic of Colombia, where we say exultant we possess all climates, all actors of geography, and coasts on two immense oceans (Atlantic and Pacific).

But independent of all, I want to post this Nro.150, giving importance to a vital element for all, and in which most of us, has not acquired enough awareness and necessary to preserve it: WATER

So many land eroded, infertile for agriculture, so many rivers dried, so many people dying of thirst, have been evolutionary consequences of a world lacking in conscience early.

¿What side are you?
¿What are you doing to raise awareness?
¿Are you educate your children in the preservation of a better world?

I hope so

Amicably, John

Hi John.
I read your note with interest. We here in Australia are especially struck by the problem of water; the land is so dry now, and here in Melbourne we have had very little rain for three months. But summer has not even begun yet. Our rivers run dry.
The photo is a carefully composed one with the typical sharpness and natural colours of your photos. Nicely composed with the rocks in the foreground and a good light. Well done.
Regards,
Andrew

Hola John,

it's a very pertinent post. Eu realmente não sei o que acontecerá com nosso mundo num futuro próximo. Todas as perspectivas são desastrosas e muitas pessoas não fazem a parte delas para que as previsões de revertam. Além da foto/nota nos trazer essa reflexão, devo dizer que trata-se de uma linda cena da natureza. É um convite a uma banho. Algo me diz que o clima era quente, mas a água refrescante. Bem acertado ângulo, ótimas cores naturais e controle de exposição. Parabéns!
Saludos,
Carlos

Hola John,

Meaningful merge of small river with very special note of yours. Yes everywhere is coming more dry on earth, many rivers already gone that there is no excuse for everyone. Your photo full with part of life as its primary elements of our life. Great photograph too with your careful works as every time. I like splendid natural colors all over frame, especially lights on water with small waterfall. Congratulations.

Saludos cordiales,

Ertugrul

Buenos días John,
Tus imágenes de naturaleza traducen tu amor de la naturaleza, te felicito. Me gusta la vista de esta agua libre y propia, llena de vida invisible. Los colores son magníficos. Bravo.
Buen día
Cordialmente
Joël

Hola amigo John.
Una linda foto muy tropical con excelentes colores y captada desde un buen POV. los colores están estupendos y ver el agua correr a través de tan precioso río es la verdad hoy en día una bendición.
Desde 1997 el agua no llega a mi casa (vivo en una colina) y tuve que hacer un pozo de 130 pies para tener agua todo el tiempo. Ya te puedes imaginar de que lado estoy !!!.
Un fuerte abrazo mi querido amigo.
Abrazos.

Olá John,
gosto dessas cenas de natureza assim, principalmente de água e vida. Gostei da nota também, realmente precisamo nos consientizar e preservar o pouco que nos resta.
Parabéns e Abraço

Hello John!
The picture is very well taken (as usual with you!), with excellent technical qualities and a special beauty! I specially like this neat foreground with the mix of rocks and water - very very nice! However, the most important of all in this image is the note that comes together with it! Awareness - one of the most precious human belongings - something still rare! A friend of mine at work was talking about "water" yesterday and she mention that people must be aware of the possibility of "no water" in the future!
Something else, yes, I'd love to visit Colombia and I'll surely include it in my list of "places to know", specially, here in our wonderful South America!
TFS - Congratulations!
Warmest regards and Saludos de Brasil,
Neyvan

Hola John,
La belleza del agua limpia corriendo es siempre un placer para los sentidos y como tu bien dices, una fuente de vida, sin ella el mundo se acabaría.
Refrescante y dinámica imagen con muy buena luz y detalles.
un abrazo,
Charo

Hi John. We that have enough water tend to take it for granted I guess but there is definitely a finite supply. Great photo. Good colours and composition. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good weekend, Paul.

Hola John,
Sharpness here is almost like a painting and so real at the same time. I like it. Great DOF!
And very useful note!
Thanks for sharing,
MCV

Hola John,
Un bello paisaje, y un muy trabajado texto que debería hacernos tomar a todos conciencia de lo efímero que puede ser un bien tan poco preciado en ocasiones, cómo es el agua.
Un saludo

Felip
