Photographer's Note
Hello my friends!
When I subscribe to Trekearth, in november 2005, I had no idea about how advantageous it could be for me.
Since that day, TE becomes a nice way to some daily pleasant time, "visiting" wonderful places, knowing interesting people, making good friends, learning with them and getting hungry for more and more photos, and more and more travels.
During this time, I´ve been learning a lot here, increasing my amateur photographer's skills to levels that I couldn´t imagine to reach.
Some fellows did not accept the post process as a value work and I respect their minds about it. But, for me, post process is just a nice tool that "all" professionals have been using since the very beggining of photography's history.
I was 15 years old when I learned how to develop b&w photos and I had my onw little lab at home with 16. (curiously, the word says "develop"!). Post process was there... used in each development. At least the use of more or less intensity of lights and the time of immersion in the fluids was basic and trivial for everybody. So, I learned why my own develop was better comparing to machine developments.
Even when we send any colour negative to any laboratory to develop some copies, we must know that the machine has its settings. So, we choose the best laboratory to develop our photos, just because its better process! I choosed a profesional laboratory a long time ago and I saw lots of professionals asking to work as their preferred settings and special instructions when I didn´t know anything about pp.
Kodak has better hot colours! Fuji has better cold colours! Chromes has better sharpness, high definition contrast! Well, there are 1000 tricks to make a nice photo! Of course that we can´t forget that the cameras, and specially the photographers, are the key to any nice picture. But pp work is the final touch! Sometimes we need more, sometimes we need less, sometimes we don´t need it! But its a nice tool used since the first photo laboratory.
Today we have our own labs at home. It is not a professional privilege anymore! Of course that we can´t change the world's images! But, I believe that we can enhance our photos to present a better work.
Well, I find this picture in my archives to post to my 300th specially for three reasons: First, because it symbolize a little bit of the apprenticeship that I gain since my first post here. Furthermore, I am also an amateur fisherman and since I began this photo fever in my life, I have been using to take my camera with me when I go fishing, keeping my eyes alert and seriously thinking that, if I didn´t catch my fish, I always can capture a nice image. The third reason is just because I finally found a photo with three of something to celebrate the 300th.
I would like to say thank you for all my friends. You had been nice fellows and I've been learning a lot with your work and your criticism to my posts.
All the best to you all!
Zeca
*This image is from "Baía de Guaratuba" (Guaratuba´s Bay). I took this photo at early morning when is commom to have fog there, because the sierra is too close, just in the end of the bay and in the back of the fog you are seeing here (W) At my back, the East and the ocean, where the sun was beggining to open the fog's curtain.*

A great choice for this special edition, with a delicate and sublime composition, all in subtle hues and silhouette. I really like the little light details, reflecting on water. Couldn’t be better than that!

Hi Zeca,
This place has been blessed by your presence .. on your note:
The negative is comparable to the composer's score and the print to its performance. Each performance differs in subtle ways. ~ Ansel Adams
Beautiful color palette .. the fishermen seem suspended in a dream between silver and gold .. a study in silhouette and space .. a truly stunning image. Into my favorites
take care,
John

Olá Zeca,
caramba, o efeito ficou ótimo! As colorações deram um ar bem místico e intrigante à composição. Uma obra, Zeca! E concordo plenamente com você sobre o post-processing e vou mais fundo. Quem diz que não faz pós-produção nas fotos está se contradizendo. Para mim, só um fato das fotocélulas das câmeras estarem convertando luz em impulsos elétricos, conforme uma programação pré-definida pelo fabricante, já define pós-produção. Ora, por que então devemos simplesmente aceitar a forma como essas células "decidiram" registrar uma cena? A pós-produção sempre fez parte da fotografia, desde os seus primórdios, quando se conseguiu transferir num papel através de reações químicas, algo próximo do que se tinha visto em certo momento. Todas minhas fotos sofrem algum tipo de alteração no momento de "revelá-las", nem que seja um simples ajuste de saturação ou o tão famoso sharpness, tão essencial às postagens aqui no TE. E atire a primeira pedra que nunca o fez...
Parabéns pela sua trecentésima postagem. Espero poder chegar a essa marca e ter aprendido um pouco mais, assim como a evolução de sua técnica tem sido mostrada aqui através de suas fotos.
Abraço,
Carlos

Olá Zeca,
Adorei sua foto, ficou muito artística, sem deixar de mostrar uma das características do lugar, que é a pesca. Parabéns por suas 300 maravilhas! Que "trocentas" mil e tantas outras venham por aí.
Concordo plenamente com sua nota, uma explanação clara e objetiva sobre PP - quando alguém tiver alguma "dúvida", tá aí o texto a ser referido!

Congratulations on 300! This is a beautiful shot, with the soft light through the mist giving an incredible contrast with the sharp figures in the boat. Incredible colour too, really golden in tone and very unsual. Excellent work, and I hope we get to see another 300 from you (at least!).

Jose for the short length of time that I have begun to see some of your photos, I have to say a real thank you for all your creative captures in light. The reason for saying that is because that is the essence of excellent photography in my mind. Creative captures have to be seen first in the mind of the photographer long before the shutter is clicked. Captures in Light is also one of the most vital aspects of photography as well. This photos oozes with morning light all over and the fog is glorious. These kind of photos are my very favorite to say the least. You can see plenty of them deep in my gallery. Light adored becomes Light enjoyed by others that we found in glorious moments of mornings like this!

The colours are outstanding and the light is perfect.Jose,one to be truly proud of.Well done.

Olá José Augusto,
Parabéns pela 300ª! Muito bem escolhida, sem dúvida, seja porque é deslumbrante, seja por ter 3 pescadores. Só espero que os 300 peixes tenham cabido naquele barquinho tão pequeno. :D
A atmosfera, o enquadramento, a luz e as tonalidades estão lindas!
Gosto imenso da sua nota, com a qual me identifico completamente. Gostaria de ter conseguido ser tão claro como você quando respondi ao desafio de discussão que o Peter Boehringer lançou no post `To PP or not to PP...´ há uns meses atrás.
Um abraço, José (Mário :-)

Olá Zeca,
Parabéns pelo seu excelente trabalho e pela estatura alcançada com os 10.000 pontos e 300 fotos publicadas. Mais importante, noto, é ver como engrandece o espírito dessa comunidade de fotógrafos, amadores ou profissionais, ao tão atenciosa e prontamente responder às críticas e às dúvidas, bem como avaliar e sugerir possíveis melhorias ao trabalho de outros fotógrafos, sempre com humildade e abertura para o aprendizado constante. Particularmente, agradeço seus comentários e incentivos.
Quanto a esta foto, nem preciso dizer quão fantástica está. A silhueta primorosa dos três pescadores contra um fundo em névoa sutil, completada com espetaculares reflexos em ziguezague que esbatem regiões de dourados e prateados quase oníricos... Boa escolha.
Ainda com relação aos limites da técnica fotográfica e do tratamento de imagens, sempre pensei como você e Carlos CB (belido): nossos olhos e cérebros não captam e percebem as informações visuais da mesma forma, nem o fazem as emulsões de haletos de prata, nem as superfícies fotossensíveis digitais. Toda captura é única e depende de uma infinidade de fatores, não sendo sensato um purismo que considere cromos essencialmente melhores do que sensores CMOS, ou imagens diretamente capturada com uma câmera digital superiores àquelas que foram aprimoradas para corrigir deficiências da configuração de fábrica ou das circunstâncias de captura com relação à saturação, balanço de brancos, curva de luminosidade, nitidez, etc. Defender sectariamente uma forma de captura sem levar em consideração o efeito final é bem artificial, porque não há sentido, diante de tanta variabilidade, em falar de parâmetro (fixo) no registro fotográfico ou em sua interpretação. Mas bom senso é questão subjetiva que merece ser arbitrada pelo diálogo aberto, algo que esta comunidade permite.
Abraço,
Victor

The light and the fog create a mood which i have seldom seen. The boat with the people in is of course essentiel and the overal photo breathes a very peaceful and serene mood...wonderful.

não é um barquinho, é uma nave espacial flutuando no dourado. Parabéns, quem sabe quando eu ver o mar novamente consiga obter condições para fazer algo próximo a esta sua pequena obra prima

Congratulations for your 300th post. This one is beautifull, combining the fog and a strange calm water, colored like oil and with the same aspect. Very original and nicely taken.
All the best,
Emmanuel

Fala, Zeca,
Parabéns pelas 300 fotos e por esta imagem soberba. Que atmosfera, que cores! Como uma composição com tão poucos elementos é tão profunda, não? Realmente invejável, brother, a excelência técnica desta foto é show.
Parabéns, de novo, abração e obrigado por compartilhar.

Alô Zeca!
Parece que já estou um pouco atrasada, mas parabéns pela sua 300ª. Acho que não posia ter escolhido melhor. A foto está excelente, composição, luz, cor e aquele nevoeiro que criou um efeito extraordinário. Muito boa mesmo!

hi Jose,oooooo,this is really amazing!interesting note,think 'the key' is our eyes,the moment and finally some work;)but,i'm sure you know that already;)your 'eyes alert' make here a dreaming photo,something that enjoy our eyes,mean professional..even now i wondered myself 'how i could recognize a professional photo?'hm,probably,like said always,the art means passion and comes from inside..and work;)and my retina is fascinated by these tones of colors..and by the sense of loneliness so well taken here!
Congratulations for your work!
friendly,
Flory

Maybe there is another reason: you like this pic so much as we like it!:)The calm water here helped you a lot here,creating a strange wonderful effect,dont have enough words to explain ....my bad english :)

Hello Zeca,
today, I took a look at your photos form Brasil. While they're all of very good quality, I think this one is the one which has the most soul, the most personality. It calls the feelings out.
I like the color palette, it's very different form what we're used to on TE. no blue, no red, no green...only black, white and gold.
We can see you put a lot of thoughts in this one, the efforts are palpable.
Congratulations on this huge milestone,
Marc

Hello Jose
Amazing photo,
congratulations on your 300 photos here,
there is a nice mixture of light and shadow here, the colour of the river contrasts very well with the fog covered sky
one of the best photos I have seen here

Olà Jose!
Excuse-moi si je suis en retard mais ton dernier post m'a fait retourner en arrière pour admirer cette magnifique photo dans la brume du matin. J'aime beaucoup les couleurs et la silhouette du bateau. Il paraît que des matins comme çà c'est bon pour la pêche.
Félicitations pour ce 300 ième post et merci de nous faire partager de si belles photos.
Amicalement,
Emilius

Bom dia Zeca!
O que mais poderia dizer além de tudo que já foi dito sobre essa sua foto!
É uma obra de arte obtida de um momento tão simples! Uma homenagem aos pescadores de todo o mundo! Uma tonalidade linda! Parece uma pintura!
Grande abraço!

i did not know you at the time when you posted this, so, my belated congratulations on your 300th, friend! just wanted to say, that i find the mood you are presenting here fantastic (i like to fish myself). it'a classic 'men in a boat' theme executed with elegance and goes straight to my favorites. funny, the scene reminds me a lot of the book "three men in a boat" :) the note is great too. i especially liked the part in which you discussed post-processing. i wholeheartedly agree with you. there WAS postprocessing with film... and, of course, even without postprocessing on our part, there is still some if we send a digital foto to print; and also some (done by the monitor of a particular brand and settings + the display software of our choosing) when we display 'non-posprocessed' image on any screen.
warm regards,
kristaps

Hello Jose. This is top quality composition delivered in first class presentation. A real dreamy perspective with pleasant hues of the changing colors. Well balanced men in the boat and the foliage on the left. The infinite horizon is a definite eye catcher here. Thanks for sharing and best regards. Jusni

Incroyable!
Quelle pureté.
J'aime la dualité entre le fog, brouillé, et l'eau, très lisse, et entre les deux, comme pour la souligner, cette barque de pêcheurs et la végétation noires.

Hi Zeca
I know you've earned all possible comments one can hear about a picture and I also know there's hardly anything left for me to say.
However my conscience will not allow me to pass by without exclaiming "Oh my God" What a shot!!! What a Moment !!!
Truly Brilliant, nothing more to say...
Cheers, Blue

Hello Jose,
this is a perfect photo, one of the few which are worth every single point they have gathered. And I enjoyed your note as much as the picture, because you speak out of my heart about pp, I myself would not be able to express it as well. Photoshop is the best invention of the last hundred years, (in my eyes), and my pics are much better than they were before digital times.
Thanks for sharing,
Elvira
