very good atmosfere!

A little obscure, but I agree, good atmosphere.

This just goes to show that when you follow the "rules" (gotta get your pictures in during the golden hour, for instance) you miss out on a lot of really fun photography like this. One of my favorite photos was a 30+ second exposure off a pier during the rain. All the other photographers had long packed up and left, but I got some incredible color from all the various atmosphere interacting.

Keep up the good work, Joel.

Stop giving people NEGATIVE points. Everytime someone gives me - points.

GT, it's because the probably don't agree with your comments. I don't think its a conspiracy. For example, I've never heard anyone describe a photography as "obscure" and I don't really think it gives any feedback. So I might downvote you. I didn't, but that's what's happening.

Also, great photograph,Joel, like all your others.

Incredible photo! Congratulations.

Yeah I describe a photography as I want.

Looking at the rocks, I would have sworn this was a CGI.

One of the more beautiful photos around here. I like how there is the open space on the left side of the photo for my desktop items while having such nice details on the right.

Dear GT: There is no such thing as "a photography". There is a photograph. Or there is photography - the art/act of taking photographs. I'm sorry but it does make me cringe every time you write "a photography". Sorry if this is pedantic BUT as this is a site about photography and photographs I think it's a fair comment. And at least I didn't go into nouns and verbs. :-)

Love this photograph Joel; this and many of your other photos transport me away from my Mac. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry, I just noticed that AdamP and Paul.CK are also describing photos as "a photography" in the posts above. I just wonder WHY????

this dim image is a great picture, i think. especially if you're using a loptop it will be useful to save energy. Thanks for your hard work...

Noupette, I never used the term "a photography". I only used it in proper verb form as I was describing the act of taking pictures like this one, and breaking the conventional "rules" of photography (note, used as a broad subject of study here) as fun. I don't feel the need to give general critiques of Joel's work, because though I don't always agree with his choices, he has proven to have a great eye for composition, color and general artistry. If there is something specific about one of his images that I feel could have been done better or would be better done differently, I will voice my opinion, and if he sees value in what I say, great, but if not, then it's of no further concern to me. My goal with my comments is to either offer my experience as a tool for others (as in the case of his piece "Colorful Place V. Color"), or to (as in this case) share a story of a similar experience, as people with similar interests are apt to do. Builds camaraderie and all that.

Mostly because I am retarded and meant to write "photograph." It just I type the word "photography" more so my finger automatically goes to the "y" inadvertently.

It's a place to post our comments and opinions not a GRAMATICAL place. If u wanna correct people's grammar, it's not the right place to do it.

Hello, i am surprise with so many comments, i tough i had good feedback and some tips, bit of a shame that you cant respect etch others point of view! can you imagine if everyone would like the same and be the same!? how boring would that been!
anyway i know i like my own work and that keeps me going no meter who likes it or who doesn't, but if someone don't like it i try to find out why!

Regards
Joel Antunes

GT: I did write a comment about Joel's photography, but the way, not just the grammar!
I'm here to learn all I can about everything I can and have a right to my comments. You sometimes make quite crucial ones that I don't agree with at all - but I haven't criticised you for it as you have a right to say what you like. :-)

I don't care if people can't spell or make typos... But "a photography" on a photography-based site is slightly annoying, as I said, when it occurs consistently. I also think it's important for people who don't speak English as their first language to learn what is correct and what is not.

To zexuxuzao - please read my post again, more slowly. What I actually said it that it is not correct to say "a photography" about one photograph. I did NOT say that it is not correct to refer to photos (in the plural) as "photography". Again, sorry if this is pedantic. I would rather not have followed this up. But I was misquoted and felt justified in pointing that out.

guys dont forget that this is an international site, people from everywhere log in here to view, i bet lots of them dont leave any coments becasue they dont know to write in enlish...they still can look at my spelling not really good lol, most times is my mac dosent correct it for me :) .... am portuguese and i make loads of grammar errors all the time!

Beautiful

GOOD JOB...VERY MOODY AND CALMING
