[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
While Ann, Tanya, Vassilis and Eleni were seated at a tavern by the sea, Constantinos and I set out to get some more shots at the seafront.

I captured this kaïki which was sort of pointing towards Bourtzi, the former executioner's residence in the Gulf of Nafplio. The only way to get to Bourtzi... is by boat. Ah well, I suppose you could swim too ☺^☺.

Tech talk

In-camera compo. I love it when that happens.

Adjustment layers for levels, curves and brightness/contrast.

Downsized, framed and signed with some PS actions.

Beautiful place and boat.Nice photo.

I like the perspective; the composition and the leisurely and carefree mood you captured! Captain; shall we set sail for Bourtzi at once : )

Hi Frank,
Very nicely composed and presented. The cropping is just right on the money.
Very sharp with nice soft colors and a great POV make for a very enjoyable view.
(were you standing in the water? if so, it looks warm. ;0) )
TFS,
Wilt

regards

Liefelijk en rustgevend
Mooie volle kleuren en ook de lucht op de achtergrond doet z'n duit in het zakje :
maakt het geheel wat " dromerig ".

Van één ding heb ik spijt :
dat ik er niet was :-)

Groetjes en TFS
Jan

Hi Frank
Very sharp and clear capture of the small kaiki. I like the line created between the boat and burtzi and the nice cloudy sky

Hi Frank,
I am smiling, knowing how does it feel to have a succesful in-camera compo. Yes it does feel so good. Especially for a nice scenery, with great colors like this... I am feeling the sea breeze - perfect day to git rid of drying brain.

Very nice take, Frank.

Regards,
Ramdan.

Hi Frank,

Excellent composed photo, the boat leads the eyes very well to the castle. Also pleasant light and color tones make this image a great one. TFS

Bonjour frank,
Une image vraiment invitante qui donne le goût d'un pique-nique à Bourtzi!
Superbe composition avec cette diagonale imaginaire et ces couleurs d'une enveloppante douceur.
Bravo! Annie

:)

Hi Frank,

Excellent POV, nicely composed giving the illusion of an arrow pointing at Bourtzi. I like very much the well balanced lighting and the natural colors.
AHHHH! memories!
TFS,
Greetings to all,
Vassilis
