~~ This was taken on our favorite beach! ;) Papamoa Beach.
we are having a beautiful winter so far, warm temperature and lovely sunny days.
That day the tide was really low so we could walk quite far "on the water"

I increased the contrast a lot in order to get almost silouhettes of my partner and our son. Then i added a purple filter and framed.

Shot with my small canon powershot, as i dont dare goin to the beach with my good nikon and my son at the same time!! ;) ~~

Hi
Gorgeous capture! Good choice for the purple filter. I especially like the silhouettes of both men ánd the waves. Superb reflections and framing. (The horizon tilts a bit down to the left)

Regards
Joris

Hello LuDivine, the silhouettes and reflections are great of your 2 men.
The bright sunlight lights the scene up perfectly and I do like the purple filter (but not the frame).

And I'm pleased the gumboots can still be used on the beach now they're of no use in the cowshed any more.

Cheers
Janice

Hi LuDivine,
Lovely image, they look like they have all the world's problems well and truly sorted.
The monochrome treatment is spot on, well done.
Pete.

Bonjour LuDivine,
J'aime le côté conceptuel de ta photo. Il y a des milliers de "photos de plage" sur TL, mais celle-ci a quelque chose de transcendant. Il ne s'agit pas d'une conversation, mais de LA conversation (entre hommes ;o)). Le traitement des couleurs, les contrastes très forts et l'approche minimaliste y sont sûrement pour quelque chose...
Du beau travail...
Merci du partage & bien à toi,
Erik

Hi LuDivine,
Striking composition ... the combination of stark silhouette contrast and the symmetry brought about by the reflections is just fantastic. Well captured and composed! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

(re) bonjour ludivine

une photo particulierement touchante. le contre jour et la reflection du personnage est tres bien vu. juste un petit bemol sur le cadres, je preferes personellement les cadres simples, mais c'est une question de gout ;)

Merci de partager

Olivier

A fine impression of a moment between father and son. Their way of 'talking' makes me smile, it is so sweet. You captured the body language in a fine silhouetted way. The dimension of their reflections enriches the photo. Well seen and caught. TFS! Cordelia :)

LuDivine:
Very good capture, the silhouettes are tremendous and the reflection on the water plus the shimmering sea, make a beautiful image. The only thing I am not crazy about is the frame, to me it is distracting
!!Congratulations!!
María José

Good B&W shot - strong silhouettes of the people and great reflections in the sand. Border is a little distracting and doesn't really add a great deal to that is a very striking picture.
Thanks for sharing
Mark
