[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Reuter reports that more than 800 people were missing on Monday after a Philippine ferry capsized in a typhoon that has killed scores and left a trail of destruction across the archipelago. This saddens me and reminds me of a trip from two years ago.

This is a typical fishing village scene in Leyte, a province in the Visayan cluster of islands. I have forgotten the town's name but I should say it's close to Tacloban, the capital city. I had rented a motorbike and traversed the area for several days and stopping in appealing spots like this. At the time, I had no particular itinerary, the kind of vacation I have always wanted - no rush and no structured plans. Although people complain about local economy, I envy the local residents for they live in a beautiful place where the weather is always warm and the water is inviting.

Coucou Danilo,
Quelle force avec ces couleurs, superbe le contraste entre la mer et le ciel avec ces vagues et nuages, le mouvement est bien ressenti
Bonne journée

Hi Danilo,
beautiful photo. I like the well separated areas forming this photo. White waves on green water give excellent contrast to white clouds on the blue sky. tfs

Despite the slight tilt, this is a fabulous posting!
the colours are terrific, the details spot-on and the mood and composition matchless

Hi Danilo my friend,
Fantastic colours and composition. The little puffs of clouds & waves go well together. A very nice tribute.

Hello Dan,
Yes the ferry incident was a terrible tragedy indeed ... so many lives wasted. This town would have been badly hit too. Lovely tropical scene with sharp true colors. The rocks in the foreground creates an interesting element especially the colorful coral rocks. The waves also added dynamism to the scene. Well captured and composed with very good image quality. Excellent work! tfs

Hi Danilo,
It was surely a great trip traversing the area on a bike, with your camera ready for hunting, with no rush - that sounds really interesting. You have a great reason to envy the local residents for they live in such a wonderful place. And I envy you for you had been there and captured its beauty into a very nice landscape picture. I love those very welcoming colors of the beach and its rocky furnishing leading my eyes to the beautiful greens of the water and the foliage. The puffy clouds on a calming blue sky is complementing the greatness of this composition. Very nice shot.

The ferry tragedy was a tragic incident that blasted a sadness.

Regards,
Ramdan.

Hi Danilo...

Hello Danilo,

The surf is a bit stronger than the usual but then this beach probably is facing the Pacific?!
Lovely colours and an excellent composition, seems like you had a great day on the breach...
And I will guess the typhoon passed not far from this place, a horrible disaster indeed!

Greetings,

Merhaba
