O Barco do Sol, a photo from Ribeira Grande, Barlavento

Photographer's Note

At the harbour of Ponta do Sol, a striped fishing boat, with bright colours and in the background on the left, a grocery, on the right the police station ...

This place is so surrealist ...

Hi Sylvie,
I like your photo. The gray colours on the background make the warm colours of boat more impressive.
Seems a little tilted to right, though.
Regards,
Alper

Hi Slylvie,
an interesting contrast between the hell nationalist boat and the bleeched houses. The cobbled street is doing fine.
I got the impression that the picture is tilt.
Good work overall.
Thanks and regards, Gerrit

Bonjour Sylvie,
A natural surrealist place, indeed! This is very well seen, and the tilt doesn't bother me as it is part of the surrealism, everything not quite as it seems. The boat named after a place in Spain on an African Island with houses reminiscent of the American West, no wonder the world is not as level as it might be.

Hi Sylvie!
This Boat"Catalunya" is still there.
You show it from a good POV,and I like your composition with the old houses ,the step mountans and a bit blue sky.
Greetings,LEO

Hola!
The colors of this boat are the colors of the flag of Catalonia. Curious photo seen from the eyes of a Catalan.

It's a good overview of Santo Antao island : mountains in the background, a bit of the city and this colorful boat. The boat was still there in May !
