[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It was my original intention to capture an early morning nautical scene from Manila Bay. I wanted to feature the blues from the sky and water, and I remember lighting was particularly good day on that day. I scoped my viewfinder, and lo and behold I saw these morning lovers. I felt like a voyeur.

PP work included auto exposure, colors, contrast, then resizing.

Good Sunday everyone.

Hi Danilo

A romantic scene of the fg couple with the bg cruise ship making a good secondary focal point. Excellent color, sharpness & framing. Tfs!

Bonjour Danilo,

An outstanding shot showing daily life in Manila!
I like the great sharpness and the expressions on the faces of the couple. The ship brings great mood into the picture. The colors are very natural and the coulds are amazingly shown. Very well seen!

Have a nice Sunday.

Hello, Danilo -
This turned out to be a very intimate and beautiful candid portrait with a fantastic background. The rich skin tones of the lovers look fantastic against the water and in contrast to the whiteness of the ship. Great mood, great light, nice composition. Good eye to see and capture this scene.

Hi Danilo,
What a romantic atmosphere you're producing here in your capture!
A loving couple with a nice BG!
Excellent light control with a great management in exposure.
Nice warm colors against the bright white of the ship.
A good POV with an ample DOF!
Well done.
Regards,

Francis Xavier

Danillo i have said it before but will say it again this is grt piece of photography everything about it is ist class a real work of art tfs
regards bryan

OH there's nothing like morning light, is there!! I just love the warm colors here... the skin tones of the two people in particular, but also the warmth of the wall they're sitting on, and even the colors of the ship in the distance. Very nice!!
Have a nice Sunday Danilo

Hi Danilo
good capture of a romantic scene in an unusual surrounding.
the photo was well composed.
the ship at the distance adds interest to the image, and is a perfect balance to the colors.
greetings
tsilla

creative composition, wonderful light, very sharp too, good eye, tfs,
scott

Ha, ha, Danilo, your photograph portrays exactly what you describe! The ship is meant to be the focal point and makes a fine shot but, we all cannot help enjoying sneaking an extended look at the romantic couple!! They are in fact the first focal point and we are all complicit in the voyeurism! Isn't it fun!! Almost like the funny postcards with a double meaning!

Very well presented and, you have entertained us all!!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Danilo,

Nice moment of the couple at the fg. the dof is great here and also the ship is sharp at the bg. nice view and good colors.

Hi Danilo, Well composed and interesting waterfront photograph. The low light angle and skin colours are appealing indeed. It is good to see the big improvement in public areas around Manila which make the environment more conducive to enjoyment of this superb environment. TFS. Murray.
