Hello Treklens fellows

Sometimes I make weird associations, when it is time to post a photo. I was exchanging comments with Clint in South Africa a few minutes ago about golfing. Yep he is playing golf on the seashore in East London after he posted an image of the lighthouse located on the golf course he is actually member. We have a couple of great golf courses too locally. My favorite being the closest to our home: The Ki-8-Eb in Trois-Rivieres . So we have a deal I invited myself to play with him in East London ! And officially on line , I am inviting him at this golf course here LOL ! Sorry Flight night included (^_^)

Well tonight since it is a chilly - 25 Degrees Celcius , and - 36 with the Wind chill factor at Trois-Rivieres let me propose you a souvenir from Cuba (^_^). Martine and Leonardo in a golf cart He is not Leonardo di Caprio, but instead Leonardo di PRO ( or Paradisus Rio de Oro if you prefer LOL )

As most hotels in Cuba are vast and spreaded over a large area, these carts are used to carry passengers on the site. We were just having a walk , when our friendly Leonardo passed by . We had a quick chat , and took this opportunity for a souvenir (^_^),
It was 13:45 hrs , In the morning we visited the city with Patricia and her mother Yemy. I made some touring and shopping with those three lovely ladies.

These hot days will be for us soon..... These hot days will soon be our daily life. But each day will remain afterwards decisive moments. We will leave our heavy winter jacks and boots, for sandals and light clothing with great pleasure.....

So for members , who like to see my love once in a while ( ^_^ ), here she is captured in good company.

Thanks for the visit !!!

Technically. Not much . Cropped obviously the shot. I was intending first to post a closer view, but finally opted to keep Leonardo's full arm (^_^).
Selective color adjustment, slight filtering with Neat Image , Resized , Sharpened, framed , titled and There you go !

Have a great day
Robert

Hi Rob,

A great portrait of Martine! The lighting & vivid colours really compliment the photo very well!

A very nice "family portrait" Robert. It always intrigues me in casual shots to see who dominated the photo and to wonder whether they dominate the relationship too.
Excellent composition, good clear colours

Great pic with a personal touch, Robert! It's always nice to escape the cold: but hey, we Westerners are huffing and puffing to send some of our warm weather your way! (+ 15 C shirtsleeve weather in Lethbridge today, and rising)
Cheers
Otto

Hi Robert
