I had difficulty composing this scene. The father came to the rescue after he noticed that the young son wanted to be included in almost all directions where I would point my camera. The boy did not want to leave, he wanted to linger longer and play. In retrospect, I think the image will be better had the couple been on the left side of the frame. But I was too lazy to move with a camera on one hand and San Miguel beer on the other. In a way, the semi-silhouetted father/son team provided added interest.

Have a good day and thanks for looking.

P.S. I processed the posted image using my laptop which has a dull monitor. As I look at the posted image on another monitor, the image appears super saturated and the silhouette over pixelated. Mea culpa. Will temper my contrast and saturation slider gingerly next time.

Hi Danilo

A marvellous sunset with good warm cold colour contrast & superb graphism & silhouettes. The man & boy animate the scene. Tfs!

Hello Danilo,

Excellent shot of a wonderful sunset with warm and beautiful colors!
Congratulations and TFS.
Sergio

Hi danilo,
Well composed scene indeed, beautiful sunset with some action in the foreground. I like the warm tones of the cloud, overall an awsome beach scene. TFS!
Greetings,
Kristof

Awesome sunset...

Paul

Haha, this is funny Danilo. Of course the sunset is spectacular - colors on the clouds and in the water are beautiful .. but the scene with the dad dragging his son away is great:) and your little story about having to switch hands with the camera and beer just adds to the story. Great job!!

hi Danilo

I am impressed with the thick clouds converging down at the middle of far end which gives a reflection to the evening light its orange tone. Very interesting to see the two although I agree they could be at the other side of frame.

Very nice sunset scene.

tfs, bill

Hi Danilo,

Beautiful sunset and beach scene. The effect of the spectacular clouds and silhouettes of the boats is fantastic. Great color and sharpness. Capturing the father/son interaction is a real bonus for your composition.

Regards,
Werner

Amazing color and great seascape. Those moments you wish to take a hundred fotos to record even the slightest change. The reflection of the two of them is really nice and well placed off centre

Hi Danilo,
Funny ánd beautiful! Excellent and striking colours captured with the perfect light!

Hello Danilo,

Monitors can be a real problem. I have noted comments from people which do not make sense unless you take account of the differences in monitors!
Actually this does not seem too bad for oversaturated on my monitor but there is a little pixelation in the sky. The blur tool will easily remove this.

I love your laid-back notes. Perhaps the boy would have been better on the left but you could argue that his father has achieved a partial removal by by getting him to the right of the screen!
A great setting and fine composition.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Danilo

Hi Danilo,
excellent and dramatic sky in superbs smoothness. Wonderful presentation of the silhoutte.
I like the action untold and the beauty hidden in the skyline.

Hi Danilo:
I dont think there is anything wrong here at all the silhouettes of the two people would be lost or obscured if they were on the left side. This is another gorgeous photo as usual... thanks my friend for sharing ......Roman:0)

Hi Danilo:
fantastic sky.
very good colors.
congratulations

Hi Danilo, Good story about both hands full! Good composition and wonderful colours. The unusual cloud stream makes it unusual. Good foreground textures. TFS. Murray.
