Hello Valerie

Very nice portrait of this part of the important port. The light is very good and well managed and so is the colours. You have chosen a good perspective with the tower in the left and the schooner in the right part. Very well done. Thanks for sharing. Have a nice evening.

salut val閞ie
une jolie photo a presque l'heure bleue avec un cadrage panoramique qui va bien et ou le bateau est bien plac�, un travail soign�, il est dommage que tu n'essaie pas de passer au reflet qui t'ouvrirai d'autre perspective dans la qualit� et la progr閟 dans la photo car tu as la capacit� d'aller plus loin

Bonjour, ch鑢e Val閞ie,
Du petit village de p阠heurs d'antan restent les 閠roites ruelles, pentues, fleuries, entrecoup閑s d'escaliers, serr閑s sous leur 間lise, la partie la plus charmante de la station baln閍ire. Le long de l'immense plage de sable o� les p阠heurs tiraient jadis leurs embarcations, s'alignent d閟ormais immeubles et h魌els.
Une tr鑣 belle image de cette ville ensorcelante.
Amiti閟.

Hi Valerie, beautiful spot. In my opinion a little more saturation is needed to make the scene pop-out.

Hi Valerie,
one more excellent blue hour work from Barcelona's Port.
By the way to see a shot from the industrial part of the port have a look in my gallery HERE.
You caught plenty of interesting elements here: some nice architecture, nice boat, charming palm trees. The sky is fantastic and the reflections enrich the picture very much.
Very well done,
M

Bon soir Valerie, Il s'agit d'une belle image de Blue Hour. L'effet sur l'eau de l'exposition 3 secondes l'a pr閟ent閑 comme le ciment humide. si douce et les lumi鑢es magnifiquement r閒l閏hi.

Bonjour Val閞ie
Pas mal pour une premi鑢e heure bleue qui met en valeur la marina.
Pour l'avenir je te sugg鑢e de faire plusieurs essais avec des paliers de sous exposition de -1/3 par rapport aux valeurs affich閑s, tu pourras apr鑣 faire ton choix.

Un ciel peut-阾re un peu p鈒e, mais de bons reflets sur l'eau et puis j'aime bien la goelette sur la droite (j'ai un petit faible pour les voiliers anciens...).

Bien cordialement,

I am glad to see your Overview Page showing your featured photos. This is a beauty from a city that has impressed us both, but my photos are almost all from the summer, and yours was shot on New Year's Eve.

Warm regards, Val閞ie,
