A shared instant
This is taken in the Cape of San Vicente in Portugal :)
It said that this place has one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world :)
I know that composition is very simple and the photo isn’t a complicated thing but I like especially the people distributed in the picture :)
This small heterogeneous group of people… is a small representation of society itself! ;P
I love the experience of seeing the sunset at Cape… Every summer hundreds of people from around the world gather in the rocky cliff together to admire this wonder of nature. When the last ray of sun is hidden in the sea… all break into applause at the same time. At that moment… there is no difference of language, race or culture :)
And this nature wonder… it’s free! ;P

the composition is simple because you made it simple and the photo is full of complex stories and shapes, each a small photo in it’s own right, yet by panning wide, you gave the book and not the chapter here, lovely work
TaniaLosada replied
Thank you very much for your comments, much appreciated :)

Thank you kindly Husky :)

Tania you say that “I know that composition is very simple and the photo isn’t a complicated thing” as if it is a negative of the photo or something wrong with it.
But in my view they are exactly the strong points of the image and why I like it so much.
TaniaLosada replied
Thank you very much Garth :) Love your comment :)
faceart

TaniaLosada replied
Oh sir! Thank you VERY VERY much for all your positive comments! Your opinion is much appreciated here :)
Tania Palermo
i really love the moment you’ve captured here. when i lived in san diego people would pull over to the side of the road to watch the sunset together – there was such a sense of community for those few moments…everyone’s differences faded away while we stood in awe of nature…this reminds me of that.
TaniaLosada replied
Glad it makes you feel that :) Thanks again :)
