Time 11:58 Time for lunch . All catamarans are at the beach to allow the crews to enjoy lunch. Great time to take a shot of all the sailboats lined up and fully geared.

For those of you , who missed the previous postings, here we are on Playa Esmeralda, one of the beaches of the Paradisus Rio de Oro resort .

We are at the West end of the beach, at the Nautical center of the resort next door, the Sol Club Rio de Luna Y Mares Resort Hotel .

As you can appreciate the weather was quite good once again , I liked the bright colors of the catamarans. I ask Martine to jump in the frame….. and ignore me (^_^)

Reminder : I do not like to walk on the beach under the bright sun with my camera and full gear. I used a very convenient plastic bag with a zipper to carry only my ''precious'' camera. We were only in swimsuits, walking in the water most of the time to avoid burning our feet in the sand. This plastic bag did a great job, protecting my camera from waves, spray, sand and salt.

Technically:
Image uncropped
Adjusted tones, colors, levels, contrasts, luminosity
Filtered with Neat Image
Added white border and title
Original will be added as a WS

Have a bright and sunny day in your hearts!!!

Cheers!
Robert

Hello Robert,
Fresh colours... superb repetition effect!
Colours are all over superb, the sky is impressive... And of course, a nice model does no harm!
Greetings,

Bonjour Robert, c'est une tres belle photo de Martine sur le catamaran. Les couleurs sont tres belles et vives, un magnifique ciel.

Belle ligne courbe de la plage et des catamarans allant vers le haut de la photo.

Bonne journee, Yan :)

Hi Rob,

Another beautiful photo from Cuba! Sun & surf... what more could one ask for???
Great POV on the boats and love the model gazing out to sea.

Well done
Constantinos

Belle photo de plage, Robert! La lumière est bien contrôlée et la composition intéressante, quoiqu'un peu serrée à gauche. Belle prise!

Hi Robert,

Excellent composition and wonderful bright colours here my friend, they really are set off by that lovely blue sky. I can almost feel the warm sea breeze :)

Great shot!

Salut Robert,
Voilà une superbe photo aux multiples contrastes dans les couleurs et une grande unité dans les lignes. Très belle composition avec la perspective créée par la répétition des catamarans et la grande diagonale des voiles. Bravo! Annie

Hi Robert,

Very nice colors, composition and point of view..,
take care
Deniz

Hi Robert,
The colours are wonderful, once again! And more beautiful sand and sky! The perspective of the boats is very nice. I would be nervous about my camera too! In fact I always wonder how people protect them from the elements. Was it an ordinary zip lock bag you used and did you take it out to take pictures or peek the lens through? Sorry if my question is silly :):)

Great composition, clarity and colors, what a wonderful way to spend the day...sailing or just sunning! TFS,
Fran

The saga continues and each shot is as good as the other. Always lovely colors, great lighting and other interesting subjects!!!lol!!

Fresh colors and of course a nice model.;)
Mitra

great series of photo Robert, the white sand looks so nice with the super colorful catamarans.
Christine.

Colorful sailboat in a row and a beautiful blond sitting on the nearest one, what more do you need to show a wonderful place on a perfect day? The answer is, of course, nothing. This is a very persuasive photo, I want to go there NOW as it's rainy, gray and chilly here.
Best regards,
Lois

Hi Robert, I really like the rich saturation and composition of this. It provides a great atmosphere of the location. Great shot!

Great composition, Beautiful.
Congratulations

Sérgio

Super great shot you do have a very nice model of your own she is very beautiful and comes out great in every photo

Tyanne

Good one. I like the triangular rhythms following a lazy line into the right. Colors are saturated nicely. A very agreeable blend of chroma, shape and focus. Well done!
