I guess the event is my vacation with Heidi...we are in Amalfi Italy which is a beautiful scenic place...the challenge for me is to take shots that don't just mimic postcards. I played with tones here but in the end the scene is pretty much a beautiful postcard. I guess there is a reason why postcards exist.

Hi Roger.Amazing picture,like old pirate film.
Best regards, Bosko.

Hi, Roger-
Sounds like a wonderful trip. I was just in Amalfi earlier this year - we stayed in Positano - and everything you can shoot looks like a postcard, so you might as well make postcards! This is a nice composition; the colorful masted ship is underlined by the line of rocks; the small boats in the foreground also add color. Enjoy your trip -

Hi Roger
Great view point shot.Great compo and colours.Amazing scape.

Cheers

Hey Roger,
It's beautiful and you avoided that nice but very commercial look of a postcard, so it seems to me you hit your target. ;)
Nice work here, soft gentle colors, good placement and great depth.
Good work indeed.
TFS,
Enjoy the vacation,
Wilt

Hello Roger,

This is a well balanced composition, with several interesting elements!
My eyes are drawn the that fine vessel, not many five masters around...
The ship is nicely balanced by the castle on the cliff!

Greetings,
Pablo -

Hi Roger,
This is stunning! Perfect well balance picture. The magnificent tallship, the castle on the rocks :-) Superb. Nice sharp and vivid image. Really good capture interesting composition. Really enjoy this picture.

Beautiful composition and an incredible scene! You must be having a fabulous holiday! This place looks so interesting, the type you can spend a whole day at. Beautiful sharp details! TFS

Wow,
just an amazing view. I like the colour of the sky here and overall composition. TFS,
Siarhei

Roger,
You prepared a great composition. The tall ship is at the right place to balance with the hill and the breaker.
It looks like the small dinghies are looking at the tall ship :)
TFS,
Wellington

An excellent POV Roger, good natural looking colours and wonderful detail.
