Hello Ike,

Blues and whites are definitely the colours of the sea and create a good, nautical impact, here.
By leaving some reflecting water, in the f/g, you strengthen the composition and give some fine textural contrasts between the water and the yachts.
I love to see the sunlight reflected from the water on the hulls of the yachts, it truly informs us of the bright weather.

I'm curious about the pots on the quayside; well I presume they are pots, upside down. 🤔

My warm regards,
Bev :-)
Thank you for your critique on Dunstanburgh. I think you will have to make a visit the area and try the walk to the castle. 😀

Hello Ike,
I suppose it is a pure coincidence that the blue and white of most boats fit the Israeli flag so well (or the Greek for that matter). Maybe these colours are just the most popular for sailors. I had to look carefully at the background to make sure I didn't see a new city skyline but an ordinary breakwater. The line of concrete slabs form an interesting background anyway. It's a clear and sharp and well balanced photo with some nice sky and nice reflections.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Ike,
A very nice close-up view of the marina with lots of sailboats, ropes and masts all seen in a fine and clear sunlight here. The many blue and white colours are very nice and go well together.

Hi Ike.
A great composition with this profusion of ropes and masts, the folded sails prefer blue, while on boats the majority wins white, it is a beautiful combination of colors.
A fantastic photo, with very good lighting and sharpness.
Well done. I love.
Enjoy the weekend.
Very best regards.
Luis.

Ike, i can see many details on that photo : the ropes, the buoys, flags, the masts. The white hulls combined with the blue sails create a pleasant visual effect. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.

Hi Ike,

The masts of the sailboats have a graphical effect. The point of view is showing the details of the sailboats. The light has a good effect on the colours. Have a nice day.

Hi Ike,

É sempre agradável apreciar barcos e eu tenho um gosto especial pelo azul tambem. Aqui esta mistura de azul e branco, mar e grafismos resultou numa imagem rica e bonita.

Parabéns

Ricardo

hello Ike, We have seen the boats in Herzliya many times already but always it is a pleasure to see such a nice composition. Lovely colours. And a great joy for you to be able to enjoy this place again after coronavirus.
Have a nice Sunday

Hi Ike,
great example of marina photography, plenty of whites and blues indeed. You have well selected the fragment which included a nice amalgam of boat fragments.
Excellent work,
M

Hello Ike,

They have the same design breakwaters in South Korea. I never tire of harbour views from around the Mediterranean whether they be in Israel, Turkey, Greece, Italy or Spain. Good sharpness and nice repetition of the moored yachts. Tfs!

Hello Ike,
You've chosen the right time 'the morning soft-light' for your blues and white composition.
It's not easy to take a picture from the marina. They're so many boats and distractions....one's has to observe very carefully the right position and angles .... this Ike, spot on frame. You even got the breakwater clearly as bg.
Well taken and goodnight.
Loong

Hello Ike, there is something very pleasing about yachts in a harbour, and here with the common colours of blue and white it makes an attractive scene.
The rippled water reflects the light very nicely.
Kind regards, Jean.

PaulVDV (62796) 2020-06-15 11:03

Hello Ike,
The combination of blue and white provides very beautiful pictures. In addition, they usually refer to summer.
We also get a view through the masts and cables of a very curious cone landscape that defines the marina.
Best regards, Paul

I like good composition and nice colours.
Good work, fine presentation

macjake (98262) 2020-06-23 16:17

Hi Ike
It took me a few seconds to understand what's going on in the bg, its a bridge with people walking :) The composition is very busy and that can be a good thing, totally opposite to a minimalist style. excellent exposure settings, the white boats aren't over exposed in the sunlight at all, nice work. I'll post a new shot later today. cheers
