Hey Leora, this is a nice romantic capture with extremely beautiful colours and sensual mood. Great capture.

How romantic... Beautiful photo. Really love story.


Noorvan M Prasetyo   {K:172} 10/1/2004
beautiful moment..nice colors too


Stefan Engström   {K:24473} 10/1/2004
They really stand out in all those blue tones. Good angle to convey "alone" (the photographer doesn't count in assessing solitude I guess :-)


Gary Gantert   {K:2104} 10/1/2004
Really nice image.
I love the elements of the composition but I think it could be cropped a little.
The foreground gets distracting.
Here is a quick edit.



Aykan OZENER   {K:5996} 10/1/2004
Very nice image.Cong...


Leora Long   {K:9989} 10/1/2004
Wow, Stefan. I should have known you would catch that.

I asked myself how can they really be alone with the me standing there ... the angle, as you suggest, was to give them their space and solitude.

And I just love the clear Caribbean ripples.

Thanks for the great comment, Leora


Milan KORMAN   {K:1052} 10/1/2004

Ameed El-Ghoul   {K:42188} 10/2/2004
Excellent capture Leora and great composition, i like the sharp colors, very nice and sensual indeed, btw i am with Gary in regard to the cropping, regards,


Leora Long   {K:9989} 10/2/2004
Thanks Ameed, I see you and Gary prefer more of the panaromic approach. I considered it, too.

Just could not bring myself to crop any of that transparent, Caribbean water.

Peace, Leora


Leora Long   {K:9989} 10/4/2004
Thanks, Gary, for your generous comment.

I like your suggestion, but I am keeping the water. Just a personal preference - 'cause I was feeling it, too, standing right in it.

Peace, Leora

Thanks Carolyn, Alway great to hear from you and to look at your charming portfolio.

I love seeing the flowers next to the cars, and darling children - and love the boot.

Cheers, Leora

Cindi Czaja   {K:5314} 11/8/2004
Great shot Leora - I just love your angle of attack here. I love the lines within - horizon, boat and your framing of couple. Beautful blues. Well done my friend. Kind Regards, Cindi


Samantha P   {K:2841} 11/10/2004
What a beautiful photograph and composition! You have a fantastic portfolio Leora! Your photos are amazing!


Leora Long   {K:9989} 11/11/2004
Thanks, Cindi. You cannot beat the caribbean blues. But I always use a polarizer in this type of situation to deepen the sky.

The boat was a lucky accident. In the right place at the right time. Seems to complete the romantic dream.

Thanks for your comments.


Leora Long   {K:9989} 11/11/2004
Thank you, Samantha, for your generous praise.

I am so thrilled to hear that you already make short films.

I sort of thought you had a cinematic eye and so I am not that surprised. Good luck with all your projects.


NN     {K:26787} 11/16/2004
Very romantic, very beautiful & well composed! Many thanks for your comment :)


Gabriella Carta   {K:22865} 11/26/2004
wowwwwwwwwwwww.. wonderful sea!! Very very good!!


Jimmy  Piper   {K:5742} 9/15/2006
beautiful colours and great comp. i admire people that can produce a great shot from film. never used film myself, and often don't feel like a real photographer because of it..picked up a camera less than a year ago, but really love it..

cheers...


Leora Long   {K:9989} 9/21/2006
Thanks, James. We were lucky to have a great film called Kodachrome 25. It was a dye process rather than emulsion. And deemed bad for the ecology.

You can still get K64 - more contrast and grain and hard to get processed.


Hakan AKIRMAK   {K:15227} 9/21/2006
Wonderful colors and very good photo! Congratulations Leora!


Leora Long   {K:9989} 10/4/2006
Thank you, Hakan. I appreciate your comment and high praise.

This was Kodakrome film, a combination of rich color and fine grain that digital cannot duplicate. I can only try in PS.


Marks Film   {K:374} 10/8/2006
Excellent shot there Leora. Everything just looks so right.
Well done

Mark


Michalis Stama togiannis   {K:9932} 10/17/2007
Excellent shot. Very nice tones of blue and very good composition.
Well done,
Michalis


Leora Long   {K:9989} 10/20/2007
Thanks, Michalis. You can see why I loved your photo. The water intrigues me.
