[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Some inhabitants of Goree island. They travel by boat from Dakar to Goree every day.

Goreé Island, rich in history, is probably the area's favorite and most famous tourist attraction. One of the most frequently visited sites is the Maison des Esclaves (Slave House), a poignant reminder of Goreé's role as the center of West African slave trade. Built by the Dutch in 1776, the slave house has been preserved in its original state. Other points of interest include the Church, the picturesque ruins of Fort Nassau, Saint Michel (the Castle) and the Historical Museum in the old Fort Estrees

Hi Moncef

Nice capture of boat ride and the island.

May I suggest these for your future posts
.always level the sea horizon line
.read about rule-of-thirds composition
read here

.either shoot 5 seconds earlier or later to let the red boat position at left or right side, not center

I like the blue water and the light on this view. Nice work.

TFS, bill
later

Hi,
