Photographer’s Note
Bote Tronco:
I took this picture in b/w to make a better scene and the high contrast looks great with the shadows. I hope you like the angle and the pov, it is beautiful to see the Dominican Art with transportation on this website.
Try to enjoy my gallery with passion and learning more about the Dominican Republic because that's my objective here: to show my country with several ways.
Sorry for my days without posting.
Thanks
Sergio Cross

Nice shot with good choice of the black and white tones in order to enhance the dramatic mood of it. I wouldn't have turn the picture that much but that's a matter of taste.
Good job anyway!

Hi Sergio,
beautiful image, especially for the good choice of B&E and the excellent use of contrasts.
Composition is also very good. Well done.

Hola Sergio.
Creo que es la primera vez que se presenta en TE un "cayuco", nombre indigena de nuestros extintos indios Tainos y los cuales se ven muy frecuentemente en el area de la Bahia de Samana. Muy buena foto en B&W con muy buen POV, pienso como Sam224 pero es cuestion de gusto.
Un abrazo y no te pierdas.

This is an unusual and quite intriguing image. I like your bold composition and excellent black and white conversion, no doubt made more effective by that red filter.
Very good.

hola sergio,
the pluses: contrast, b/w, nice subject,
minus: the tilt, unreasonable, hard to explain why?

Hola Sergio!
La verdad es que es un ángulo atrevido el que tomaste, más considerando que ya el cayuco estaba inclinado a ese mismo lado... Da la impresión de que se va a volcar, quizás eso fue lo que quisiste transmitir. Yo me quedo con el ángulo que tomaste, porque definitivamente llama la atención y "mueve" el cayuco.
Sin embargo, lo que más me gusta es el blanco y negro, y el fuerte contraste que tiene la foto. Yo diría que parece una foto periodística de las de antes, que además de dramática era emotiva.
No te pierdas más!

Hola Sergio.
Composición un tanto extraña, pero original. No sé, si bien o mal pero si sé que no deja indiferente, lo cual me gusta.
Un saludo, Oscar

Nice composition. The positioning of the boat is very good and B&w is a right choice.

Hola Sergio
En primer lugar excelente coposición y punto de vista. la inclinación de la foto es acertada.
Y en seugndo lugar, el efecto b&w, también creo que es un acierto porque aportar un aire añejo a la toma.

Certainly Sergio. I liked all variables you considered to take this picture. B/W and the angle taken they all are great. I must have told you earlier. I say it again, your photographic skills has sharpened compared to when I saw in the beginning.
Great on Sergio
Cheers
Rajesh
