I'm undecided. I like it one day, the next I don't. I mostly like it as the light is mostly alive.
Thank you! I love your "surfer" picture! It´s awesome and serene.
I agree with you! This picture makes me feel many different emotions and even tense sometimes due to being different in geometry, unnespected and that was a major trigger for me. It took me 3 seconds from seeing it to shooting it. It was my first picture of the day while searching for a burst of color. I came out of a parking lot measured the light on the floor and decided to go for the highlights instead of shadows. Turned around a corner and suddenly I see this abnormal light and a woman in a yeallow jumper walking to it 3 meters away. Stayed there for 6-7 minutes and the light was gone. Now I know the light creates that shape only for 15 minutes and for a few more weeks then it will not be there until next year. The days are getting longer here in Madeira and the sun is getting higher.
Thank you for all the comments. This picture is almost straight out of the raw file, underexposed by 2 f/stops. Also underexp in shadows and blacks in Lightroom, added a bit of sharpness and contrast to bring the colours out and that was basicaly it.
I hope it inspires other people in their journey of vision.
I have been away for a long time and decided it was time to come back. This is the best place to exercice the visual "muscles" in all sort of areas of my photographic "body".
Once more, thank you for the opportunity to know what you feel about this picture. I am very, very open to ideas and opinions about my work. If you do not like something just say it and be specific. If you do like it say it as well, if you have the time for it.
