[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Mike (Mbasil) took the boat to this dock, I walked to it a few months earlier. This is probably the best place to wait for a boat. You are surrounded by beatiful mountains and can touch the clear glacier water of Lake Josephine.

So why wait, walk of te boardwalk and take a seat on the bench and get relaxed.

Great shot Niek, a nice lead in , good colours and a perfect composition.
Thanks for sharing.
Michael.

Beautiful shot Niek! Very nice! I like the water! What a gorgeous place!

Niek.
Bijzonder mooi plaatje. Heerlijke plek om te zijn.
Mooi van kleur. (met name ook het gele touw en het rode bankje.)
Mooie compositie.

Hoi Niek,
Yep, ik zou er zo willen zitten met mijn camera. Prachtig helder water goed vastgelegd Niek. Ook een mooie compositie je loopt als het ware zo over de plankier naar de rode bank. TFS!

Hi Niek,
that's a pretty invitation - I like the red bench on the end here.
I guess it would be wonderful to sit there and relax, enjoy the sun and perhaps take a bath after - brrrrr - the water looks a little cold.
Thanks and bye bye

beautiful green colours.beautiful lake and trees.very nice nature picture.
well done.best regards.

Nice focus all the way to the end, colours are great. The only thing which may have made it even more, was if you got the camera a little higher up perhaps, not sure that you needed that many trees in the background and more of the beautiful water could have done you well - I think anyway

GREAT shot.

I LOVE IT!!!!
Great POV...
I'd love to find myself sitting with no worries..
TFS! :)

Hi Niek,
A simple composition, but very appealing!
The lines leave no choice, I have to go out there to wait for the boat...
The strong red spot makes an excellent contrast with the rich green in this pleasing image!

Great shot, Niek !
Excellent POV and compo.
Very inviting photo.


stay well,

Beautiful shot. Love the color of the water & the leading lines of the ropes & dock.

Magnificent colours and excellent focusing. The trees at the bg look slightly flat, but a wider shot would have probably spoiled the subject, so good job on that decision :)

I would have never thought to shoot this. But you have shown me my mistake. There is just enough width here to really be intriguing. I agree about the red bench. And I agree with your note abuot waiting (I did for half an hour), though the adjacent beach is a bit nicer. Too bad about the ugly rope, though, don't you just hate it when people start making things safer?
Mike
P.S. No pity points for having walked!

hi Niek,
this is a lovely photo. Personally, i think it also looks great without the bank on the other side - I added a workshop to illustrate what i mean.

Best regards, Daniel

Hallo Niek.
Mooie opname met de lijnen van uit de hoek.
Geeft een geweldige diepte werking en een mooi plaatje.
Groet Frans

Hi Niek,
Lovely place and great picture..i want to jump from here...is it very cold??
Amit

A great pieceful and relaxing place, Niek:)
I love the colours of water and a slight reflection of the blue sky on it:)
The yellow ropes that lead exactly to the corners of the shot are connecting the viewer with the scene!
Great effect:)
thanks and have a good night, Karina:)

Niek,
A very relaxing looking place indeed. I like the use of natural light and the green tones here. good texture in the water and the walkway is slightly off-centered, good presentation!
Well done,
Scott

Great colors and exceptional quality. Hard to say if I like it more with or without the bank (I've red the others comments). Perfect framing anyway, TFS.
