Bonsoir Jean,
sunset here is beautiful. Good composition. I like the palms and low sun in BG. Fine contrast and orange sky. Pleasant calm mood is in this image.
Have a nice evening.

Ciao Jean
il tramonto � gi� bello di suo con questi colori che includono tutti i toni del giallo e del rosso, ma il maggior pregio della fotografia a mio parere risiede nella composizione che trovo perfetta con la bella diagonale in silhouette e la bella posizione di sole e nuvole che amplificano la magia del posto.
Complimenti per questa e per le precedenti foto scattale alle Seychelles.
Ciao e buon fine settimana
Romano

Salut Jean,
Un magnifique coucher de soleil.
En plus des tons chauds du ciel et des reflections dans la mer, j'aime les nombreuses silhouettes en bas dont la forme des feuilles est bien visible sur le fond de l'eau. Idem pour les silhouettes des feuilles du palmier � gauche.
Aussi tr鑣 bien compos�.
Bonne soir閑, Paul

Bonsoir Jean,

La visibilit� 閠ait remarquable, ce jour-l� ! Magnifique coucher de soleil, aussi bien pour ses teintes orang閑s que pour la v間閠ation qui offre un beau cadre naturel au premier plan.

Bon week-end,

Sylvain

Bonsoir Jean,

A spectacular Indian Ocean sunset with good sharpness and superb graphism and silhouettes. A level horizon placed well away from the centre to comply perfectly with the rule of thirds. Nice reflections of the suns rays in the water. Bon weekend!

Bonsoir Jean,

Un paysage qui fait r陃er. La distance entre le palmier et les montagnes donne de la profondeur � l'image. Les montagnes et la v間閠ation sont dans l'ombre. Le coucher de soleil donne de belles couleurs au ciel et � l'eau. Bonne soir閑.

Hi Jean
I really enjoy nature and beautiful sunsets as depicted with the warm golden tones while its last rays of sunlight announcing its departure only memories remain! and you have registered that moment so well. The silhouettes obviously complete the compo with striking contrast. Flawless capture, Congrats.
Best regards

Bonjour Jean,
Un superbe coucher de soleil ! Tu as parfaitement ma顃ris� l'exposition, ce qui n'est jamais simple dans ce cas. Les couleurs sont tr鑣 belles, les reflets du soleil dans la mer tr鑣 esth閠iques. Mais le plus c'est cet excellent cadrage, avec la silhouette des palmiers, qui 閝uilibre parfaitement la composition. Beau travail !

Bonjour Jean...

Quelqu'un peut penser: "un autre coucher du soleil", mais... ce qu'il fait magnifique cette photo, est le cadrage, la composition, c'est a dire, l'oeil du photographe... l'avant plan, en silhouette et curve est fantastique, le soleil un peu deplac� a droite... chaque element est exact閙ent plac�!!! C'est admirable, et joli!!

Salut cher Jean

Another photo from paradise. I love the deep golden tones and the silhouettes. It's been exposed superbly and the reflections on the water are the cherry on the cake.

Somehow I think tropical sunsets are more beautiful! Nicely captured with wonderful warm golden colors. I like the silhouette of those trees. Well done, tfs.

Salut Jean
Un joli coucher de soleil
J'avais un poster g閍nt d'une vue similaire qui tapissait le mur de mon salon lorsque j'habitais en r間ion Parisienne, c'閠ait � la mode dans les ann閑s 70
Bien cordialement

mcmtanyel (69101) 2013-11-18 12:45

Hello Jean,
Most sunsets are beautiful, but the beauty of this sunset has been brought out by good photographic technique: The silhouettes of the vegetation framing the photo at the bottom and the left, the position of the sun, the clouds in the sky all work together to present a most delightful sunset.
Regards,
MT

this is a kind of sunset that put the europeans crazy, I know this because I saw the reaction of them in Africa.
excellent use of the elements here, the leaves and the clouds added nice details to the compo. TFS.
