Hello,

que de merveilleux palmier, très bien capté, tout en mouvement, on voit à merveille le vent qui souffle en bord de merc, avec ces coulerus bleus-verte de la mer, une merveille.

Bravo et maitié

Hi Chris,
Looks very inviting. Nicely composed photo with the palms framed agaist the blue water. Now where are the big waves that this place is so famous for?

Hi Chris,
I am glad you composed this featuring the stately coconut palms with the beach combers as supporting elements. The swaying leaves makes it look more tropical along with the soothing greens and fantastic blues. Greetings!

Ciao Chris


A good beach atmosphere!
This is a fine composition with strong foreground interest,
leading up nicely to the subject!
I like the look of the palms along the beach,
I like here are the highlights of the color cast
across the landscape and making your trademark in place.
Beautiful natural light sets and details.
Congratulations,

sergio

Hi Chis,
Very refreshing summer view, my friend! Nice capture from Waikiki beach, fine vertical composition with the tall palm trees, the effect of wind is well seen. I also like the low POV. Nicely rich in colours, correct exposition. TFS!

lovely vibrant colors - nicely capturing the mood and giving out a feeling of a cool breeze on a warm sunny day ...

i m not a pro but i can i say that it might have had a greater impact on the viewer if ur POV was a bit lower n ur camera was near the ground and looking up to the trees with more or less the same frame composition

rest its a post card shot !!!

hi Chris,

very delightful summer mood in this shot,
Cocos nucifera in motion,
a bit windy I guess, it's nice how it's
standing tall against the sky and the sea
in the BG... there's a poodle or probably
a cat going for a swim:) beautiful lighting
and a very natural fresh scene... superb POV..

best regards

Oh man, Chris,
that's a beauty of a shot. The colors are just unbelievably rich and clear. I love the vertical lines of the palms in contrast to the horizontal lines of sea and sky and the people add a nice life to the scene. The color and detail are just fantastic. Very well done! Many thanks and kindest wishes,
Shelly

Hi Chris,

The presence of the people has an effect of scale. The capture of the power of the ocean is an asset to the composition. The point of view leads our eyes toward the horizon which is giving depth to the composition. The palm trees are framing well the beach. The light is well managed and it is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.
