[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of the nicest area of Senegal known as Sine Saloum.

We stayed on a island in the middle of a wide river (the Saloum) delta where the river meets the ocean. The pirogues are the only way to reach the land.

The sun was still high thus the light was a bit difficult to capture properlly...

Hi
That is a nice shot.The lonely boat and the beautiful reflection of the sunlight have created a drammatic effect.

hi Gilles

Hello Gilles,
That is a very nice image alright. Quiet and still as often it happens at this very moment of the day. I think that you captured it well. I like the sharpness and the balance in the forms and shadows. Very good job. Still I would like to propose a workshop.

Hi Gilles,

Stunning lighting on this water and sharp silhoette cretaed and captured. Nice mood created. Effective POV used. Tfs.

dear Gilles,
a wonderful picture of the splendid view.
I especially like this calm and quiet atmosphere of wide view.
colors are naturally chic and light is touching, floating cloud and reflection on the water make excellent space in this.
thank you,
Akihisa
