Walking on the sea?, a photo from Nusa Tenggara Timur, Nusa Tenggara

Photographer's Note

Florès, I was walking on the beach, coming back from Nangahale,theese two fishermen were coming back; one oof them seemed like walking on the sea...
With the sun setting light crossing this old sail, it was a good moment;for me not for them, only very small fishes.

Salut Joel,
J'aime bcp ton image de vie quotidienne. Je trouve qu'avoir coupé la tete du pecheur renforce l'image. Le contrejour est violent mais n'est pas trop dérangeant.
Bravo.
Seb

Beautiful shot. I really like your compo and the cut off human torso at the top of the frame is essential to the success of this image. Without that small bit the shot itself would have appeared normal. The only thing I dislike are the colors, perhaps it would be better to turn this shot into B&W given the dullness of the RGB. Anyway, good work here, a semi-complex compo that works and makes you wonder. Well done.

Joël bonsoir - j'aime beaucoup l'inclinaison que tu as donné au bateau dans le sens du courant et les couleurs soft - c'est très joli et c'est vrai que le pecheur au fond donne l'impression de marcher sur l'eau -
Bonne soirée et merci
Gaby

Hi Joel
I had waited till the other man was totally in the scene as the man in front is looking there, if the seawalker was only in the background, ok , but here he get all the focus as the most important element in the shot, therefore cutting is only a bit of a disturbing gimmick, I hope you don't mind my personal impression rather doubting some new approaches that a shot has to disturb the viewer in an empiric way to seak attention.
A pleasant scene of the fishermen, gives me a lot of nostalgic feeling for the time I was living with them, thanks for sharing.
Warm greetings
Henk

Fil is right, the cut off torso gives this photo a nice twist that makes it very oroginal, and slightly strange and surprising. But I like the dull RGB here, the subtelty is not overpowering and we focus on the composition...but theres enough vibrancy here that its still better in color.

J'aime beaucoup la position de l'home tronconne en haut, ca met de l'odre a la composotion entiere. Un eimage tres equilibree et dynamique en meme temps.
tres beau travail,
Francis
