A quickie tonight .....

As I am on duty this week until Friday Sept 21st. Then your servant will be on vacation for two weeks (^_^) So again I will be off-line most of the week. But I will still try to visit you guys as often as I can.

A simple image taken earlier this week at lunch time. I had a walk in the harbor park.

As Fernando ( Fer ) observed yesterday , I just reached the 20000 mark. So, today , I am saying Thank you with flowers. Thanks to all supporters, and constructive comments, critiques and WS received.

I wish myself I could post more of them , but my time is more limited these days. But I will be back sooner or later (^_^).

As I mentioned in my intro, your feedback is important to me, as it is my motivation to continue to express my feelings , my view of our world. Not an ideal world certainly , with all the problems and injustice going on everywhere. But I do my best to show the beautiful side of it , and its people, instead of showing the negative side. It is more uplufting to me anyway. One of my most rewarding aspect , beside improving my Photography skills , is to have developped beautiful relationships and friendships with many of you guys.

Points are not really important . That being said, like anybody else, if I do not receive comments or critiques, there is no really sense in posting (^_^).

To be honest, Today , I am honored to be the favorite of nearly 200 members. So you are all motivating me in posting, even if at times, I need a break.

One image a day is not much . But it is a lot too. But I love it, and I love your company (^_^). It is a pleasure to share images, and humbly add my contribution to this great community.

Have a great weekend everybody !

Robert


Technically . Image cropped, resized , titled. I am too lazy at 01:30 in the morning to do anything else . I have to be back on the docks at 07:30 hrs LOL !

Bonsoir Robert,

Salut Robert ! 20000 points ! C'est incroyable, 10000 fois des gens on fait l'effort de commenter et d'écrire quelques lignes sur une de tes photos, ça donne le vertige non ? Tu mérites chacun de ces points ! Bravo et merci de ta présence ici. En passant elle est sublime ta photo avec un excellent POV et de qualités techniques irréprochables. Bravo encore et à un autre 20000 points ! :-)

Mario

Félicitations pour les 20K pts. Et bravo pour les favoris.
Et il ne faut pas oublier les 709 photos :-).
Excellente capture. Excellente netteté et détails.
Pierre

20000pts c'est une chose, mais c'est surtout un minimum de 10000 commentaires dont tes photos ont fait l'objet, tu peux être fier de cet intérêt porté à ton travail et c'est bien parti pour continuer comme le prouve celle-çi, formidablement texturée, avec surtout ce parfait dégradé de bleu qui t'est habituel.
merci,

Armel.

On dis dans pareil cas... Tout est dans la lumière! Jolis capteurs de soleil aux fines tentacules duveteuses qui se réchauffent dans une harmonisation autant avec son atmosphère qu'avec son contraste d'un bleu fort intéressant par la richesse de son bleu. Les fleurs violettes qui n'en on que la couleur en point le nom, Ce que ça ressmble à de la menthe poivrée... Mais je n'en aurais jamais vu fleurir de la sorte?
Bravo!

Salut Robert,
Très bien réussi cette capture. Tout un accroche soleil ! Contre plongée pertinente et une richesse de bleu que le filtre polarisant met bien en valeur.
Ivan

As I opened this up from the thumbnail, the crisp white grass/flower heads almost startled me as they rose from the bottom of my screen into view:) Wow! Then the purple heliotrope...one of my favorites. I love the low POV that uses the rich blue sky to enhance the beauty of the flowers. Splendid!

Very good POV Robert,
Lovely rich contrast between the 'glowing' part of the plants and the blue sky :-)

Best regards, Daniel

Maybe the frame is a bit too heavy for this delicate and very beautiful image.
