My 5th picture of my cruise series.
After we rented a van at the harbor we took a ride to see the city of Montego Bay, the driver took us around downton and later to a beautiful hill from where we were able to see the city and the bay. Many years ago a superb mansion was located at this place, today it's a hotel and to go inside we had to pay but the condition of the place isn't what it was before so we didn't enter. Many buses goes to the same place with a lot of tourists. After this the van broke down and we had to return to the ship.

Hope you like it.

Emile what a wonderful bright sunny photo. My impression is you seem to be enjoying summer all year long. Nice long perspective from this vantage spot on the hill.

Hi Emile,
It's been 34 years since my visit to Montego Bay but this town looks just as beautiful as back then. It's great being able to reminisce all those past experiences.
TFS.
Paul

Ola Emile,
Gorgeous view of the Montego Bay from the hill. Greeat colours and dfetails.
Have a nice weekend
Aires

The van driver certainly knew where to find you a good POV. The shrubs in the foreground provide a good frame for the beautiful view across this famous bay. The sky seems a bit pale but not quite over-exposed. Maybe a ND grad filter would have been of benefit here. Nevertheless the view is lovely

Hola Emile.

desde luego, una privilegiada vista esta que nos presentas hoy.

Es posible que tenga mucho ruido o es mi ordenador?

Un abrazote, OScar

Hej Emile,
Great photo with a lovely variety of colours in the foreground and a nice view of the bay and the town behind it. The hills and clouds are a nice background. The addition of the plant and flower at the left hand side is good as well. Nice work!

Hi Emile,
Indeed a paradisiacal spot, judging from the view and your note. You framed this well with the lush vegetation and colourful flowering bushes in the foreground. I might have beefed up the contrast in the sky in PP. I like how the cruise ship sits poised like some visitor from outer space, trying to blend with the land and seascape. Well captured.

Hi Emile,
A nice view on Montego bay city. Very colorful with tropical plants and flowers everywhere. The oleander in FG give agood starting point and indreases the depth. Is it your ship in the harbour? ;D

Hello Emiel,

It's a very lovely area, very colourful and a nice panorama view about these environment.
With the cruise boat very depth in backgrpond gives something extra to the picture.
A little bit difficult through the strong light about the bay, but I can enjoy.
Thanks for sharing.

Have a nice weekend,
John.

Well made panorama Emile of this most attractive place (photowise. You use well the foreground as the details in the middle, all backed by the distant hilled landscape. Seems an interesting place to visit.

What a nice panorama with a special high POV which makes this an attractive picture. A beautiful composed landscape.
Best wishes,
Achim

Hola Emile,
Vey nice framing; I like the flowers in the foreground the wide bay, the cruise ship and the stunning clouds. The focus is a bit soft. SAA, Pat

The cruise ship look huge docked by the city. The buildings to the right oof the ship give an idea of the size of the massive boat. Nice point of view and colouration on this image. The view is quite beautiful from such a high point. Thanks Emile.

Roberto

A very noice shot with the overview of Mantego Hill, Emile. The composition is quite effectfull, although I have some doubts regarding your PP. The colors seems to be to contrasty almost achieving the level of a simple postcard. If it isn't the PP it has to be the harsh light conditions that you got there and that is definitively something that you can't change.
Saludos!

Hola Emile, amigo mío,
ya he vuelto de mis cortas vacaciones en Andorra, y tengo muchas fotos, pero antes he de ponerme al día con mis críticas, ya que la amabilidad de los miembros de TE es muy grande, y debo corresponder.
Tu foto evoca grandes momentos, desde un punto de vista alto que ofrece una espléndida panorámica de este bello lugar, con el buque incluído, con una luz especial y unos tonos muy suaves.
El resultado es muy agradable y atractivo para animarnos a realizar un crucero, sobre todo por el Caribe.
La exuberante vegetación con la flor de la bouganvillea en el primer plano aporta mucha calidad a esta bonita imagen.
Buen trabajo, amigo.
Un fuerte abrazo,
Josep

Olá Emile, even if the quality of the image doesn't seem perfect to my eyes and I don't know exactely why, the view is fantastic and I like the composition, with the inclusion of the flowers in FG.
Un saludo,
ricardo

Ciao Emile!!
what a nice POV! You captured both the bay and some fantastic flowers and plants.
I never went in a cruise, and I ask myself it during a cruise is it possible to also to have a splash in a lovely place like this one or there is not enough time. I guess it is a very relaxing way of spending holidays, anyway!

Ciao!!

Livia
