Caught Diane with our friends Suzanne and Sylvie enjoying the waves.

OK, OK, I know, not the greatest composition but I like it. That's the way I saw it and that's the way I took it.

Hope the waves don't spill on your desk too much :-).

Waves
The great majority of large breakers one sees on an ocean beach result from distant winds. Three factors influence the formation of "wind waves":

* Wind speed
* Distance of open water that the wind has blown over; called fetch
* Length of time the wind has blown over a given area.

All of these factors work together to determine the size and shape of ocean waves. The greater each of the variables, the larger the waves. Waves are measured by:

* Height (from trough to crest)
* Wavelength (from crest to crest)
* Period (time interval between arrival of consecutive crests at a stationary point)

Waves in a given area typically have a range of sizes. For weather reporting and for scientific analysis of wind wave statistics, their size over a period of time is usually expressed as "significant wave height." This figure represents the average height of the highest one-third of the waves in a given time period (usually twelve hours) or in a specific wave or storm system. Given the variability of wave size, the largest individual waves are likely to be twice the reported significant wave height for a particular day or storm.

Bonjour Pierre,
Je vois que tu as eu de belles vacances toi aussi! Les couleurs sont splendides et les détails bien rendus. Il ne manque que le son de la vague! Bravo! Annie

Hi Pierre,

It's beautiful picture. I like the way you frame it. Well done.
Thanks for sharing.

Cheers, Tjutjut

I so wish I was in this photo instead of where I am.... Will summer ever come???
I like it also, it is of a private moment between friends enjoying life.
Beautiful colors and good detail. TFS
Dayna

First thing that I notice here is the frame Pierre.
I like what you did with it.
Than I notice the color, which is beautiful and I love the contrast between the turquoise and the milky white of the waves.
Come to think of it.... are you sure this is just one image? It almost looks as if you used two.

ok.. and then I notice 3 ladies enjoying the lovely water and the lovely day...

I think all in all you have taken a nice shot here Pierre and I like the atmosphere of this image.
So... spilling water on my desk or not... :-) it's great!

Cheers,
Anneke

Hi Pierre,

Too late... I'm already wet... :))
Great photo that reminds us of Summer that is so close. Nice colours and presentation!

Well done
Constantinos

Bonjour Pierre
bonne baignade dans l'eau chaude, qu'elle chance
excellente composition
amitiés
jojo

Bonsoir Pierre,
Comment ça tu n'étais pas à l'eau toi ? Avec la vague qui passe par dessus le cadre, ce ne serait pas surprenant que cela déborde sur mon bureau ! As-tu de bonnes assurances ?
Splendides couleurs et et belle réalisation du cadre. Magnifique présentation avec grande acuité. Félicitations.
Amitiés
Pierre

** demain

D'abord, merci pour la critique sur mon magical sky.

Ensuite, j'adore ce que tu as fait avec cette photo. Perso, j'adore la couleur et la prise de vue. Et la vague qui sort du cadre, c'est fabuleux :)

Je trouve que c'est très réussi.
TFS
Cynthia

Ton cadre est fantastique!
Oui, on a vraiment l'impression que la vague vient sur nous.
J'ai reporté ce voyage pendant bien des années. Puis je n'y suis jamais allé...
Alors si tu dis que c'est bien ainsi que tu l'as vu, c'est super, je l'ai donc vu moi aussi de mes yeux vu!!!
ce bleu-turquoise... ouf!
Merci pour ce petit voyage à bon marché$$! :-D
Dany

Great simple composition with warm pleasant atmosphere. I like the blue colour of water and great finishing.TFS

Hi Pierre,
I like it too; the nice turquoise water, the fine waves with delicate white foam; the way you framed this shot...and of course the very attractive Bunny's playing in the Caribbean Sea ;) Perfect holiday picture my friend. Well seen.
Hans

Hi Pierre,
Your perpective makes this whole water scene beautiful. Love the waves out of the photo - and OH those colors. Very nicely done. Julie

Hi Pierre,
Cool frame.. the waves look to be coming right out of the monitor! The blue water just looks so amazing and warm! I wonder what your bunnies are looking at!

Tricia

Hi Pierre, I actually think it is well composed. The out of framework helps the composition also. Good colour, light well handled and excellent artwork. TFS,
David

PS did you swim or too busy supporting the bar staff?

Many thanks for your comment on ‘City Park VII’

Hi Pierre,
How tempting!! I feel like diving into this appealing water.
Wonderful shades of blue and a very nice composition.
TFS
Kind regards,
Lurdes
