[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
When she is wearing that one, I always think of Sergio..... I wonder why ?

The salt water pool was between us. ( see the map for the exact location, where she was sitting ). I have asked Martine to sit that way for a quick shoot. Note, I wanted to do it a few days before, but the sidewalk was closed as waves were rolling over the rocks and into the pool . ( and Martine was not too willing to play the outlaw ).

Image cropped. Resized and framed for TL.

Ola Roberto. La fotografia esta fantastico!
Nice of Martine to pose for you. She makes a great model:)
The nicely saturated colors of her swimsuit and her white hat contrast so nicely with the background. Nice shallow DOF with the blurred rocks and waves in the BG.
Beautiful shot!
Trudy

Salut Robet,
Voilà une Martine très zen en dépit l'ampleur des vagues devant elle! :)
Superbe composition et profondeur de champ!
Le contraste des couleurs donne encore plus de force à l'image! Bravo! Annie

Hello Robert,
A nice figure of this blonde girl with a message on her bikini!
The effect of the telephoto lens is giving a good result - it seems the wave is going to sweep the girl with it.
Great lighting and sharpness and above all very good skin tone!
Good photography!
Regards,

Francis Xavier

Hello Roberto,
That is beautiful view in the photo. A wonderful contrast in the picture with the lady, with the skies the water and beach all very beautiful composition.
Best regards
Janusz
Have a good weekend

Hi Robert,
Hehehe...good ol' Yucatan :-) Well decorated by Martine :-) Great shot my friend, fresh striking colours. Striking DOF too. Great holiday picture.

Hello Martine, Yes behind you...
Hopefully you slept well after this Mexican sunburn ?
Did Sergio send you that Bikini by email ?
Nice composed shoot, Robert.
Sure you both had a splendid time out there.
Best wishes from Jan

Hello Robert!
Very very beautiful picture!
You have a beautiful wife. She pose very good for you!
Perfect detail, wonderful colours!
Best regards!
Lili

Hi Robert,

So nice and relaxing. I envy Martine at this very moment. My pool is green and the water is cold and there ain't no wave to make a nice noise. Very nice picture indeed, you made me dream.
Good shot.

Welcome back! Great "postcard shot", my friend - well composed, strong colours and the crashing waves all help to make this a beautiful image. Really nicely done!

This would make a great shot for a travel mag - nice composition and the colours are very well saturated.. The BG is nicely blurred with good use of DOF but not too much that we can't see the waves breaking.

Really nice shot..

David

Ola Roberto:

Hello robert,

good management depth for a well contrasted composition. Cheer for the setting in scene, this is good work.
Regards
Laurent

Hello Robert,
A lovely view, the composition strikes me to emote summer fun. Martine provides an attractive backdrop (literally) in showcasing the surf and beach. Looks like a god time was had by both the photographer and model. My best regards...Danilo

Ciao Robert


Ahahaha ... I loved the response of Janone,
I submit that the Bikini Martine are using
via email! (Very funny). Rio to Mexico!
I just think that Martine has very good taste!
This photo is well for a summer Carioca,
and Martine and complete the scene!
Excellent definition of colors and very beautiful.
Well framed, good color palette!

Greetings,

Sergio

Hi Robert,

Yet another lizard? This one is much more attractive than the others- even from the back. Nice touch with the white hat. Impressive waves. Not very typical, are they?

Regards from France,
Randy

Hi Robert,

You need to submit to the bureau of tourism of Rio de Janeiro! It's terrific. Relaxing on the beach, watching the waves. It's a fun shot of Martine. Perfect composition! Lisa

A lovely composition and the red is very eye catching.
