Heavy tilt, a photo from Netherlands Antilles, Other

Photographer's Note

Another picture from a Carib regatta. It is almost the same as the 'Full trottle' picture, but this one i like because of his heavy tilt.

I take this picture on a another day as the 'Full trottle.' picture. This time from a Zodiac RIB.

I hope you like it to?

Yes I like it Robbert,

Ik vroeg me af of je al aanbiedingen hebt gekregen voor nautische bladen. Ze zijn gewoon af, perfect en ik ben dus niet de enigste die er zo over denkt, goed gedaan Robbert.

Wonderfull regatta photo Robbert.

I like the angle of the boat, and the colors. The water color its great.

Well done

Rhiannon (1728) 2004-03-18 7:37

Wow! Great action shot, I love the placement of the ship in your composition.
Looks great with all the people sitting beside eachother.
The colour of the water is amazing! Is it real or have you enhanced it in post-processing work?
Anyway, that doesen´t matter, this is a great shot!

Very nice image Robbert. I really like the sky in this shot. She is also very beautiful.. All the small boats on the horizon, a nice +

manny (22032) 2004-03-18 7:41

Good shot. The composition, as usual, is flawless. The distant sailboats provide the "crowd" effect. The people on the boat also look very inetresting as they sat and look almost identically posed and positioned.

timotey (119) 2004-03-18 7:42

Nice shot of an IMX45 ! Very well framed and the sea has beautiful colours and relief.

jhm (211734) 2004-03-18 7:43

Very very perfectly Robbert, deze is nog mooier dan uw vorige die goed op deze lijkt, het horizont 'waterpas' een rustige zee en goed weer wat wil men nog meer. Prachtige serie, heeft u er nog, ik wacht!

nwoehnl (122) 2004-03-18 7:45

A quintessential "Robbert-shot" again. Beautifully dramatic tilt of the big boat in the front left, and a fine capture of the moment to have all the other boats on the distant horizon. Impeccably framed, and with great colors to boot. As in some of your earlier boating shots, the positioning of the crew on the side of the boat makes a fun and enjoyable pattern. Well done.

CVTJan (1244) 2004-03-18 7:48

Dear Robbert when I first saw the thumbnail I thought that you maybe made a mistake by uploading the same pic again, but you didn't. It really looks like it is in full speed and making a turn directly at....................... us the viewers !!!!!! Help !
Yours, Jan

Cher Robbert,
Prendre une photo d'un zodiac relève de l'exploit, cela remue, cela chahute, il faut se tenir sérieusement pour ne pas aller rejoindre l'eau sans avoir envie de se baigner.
Belle prise de vue d'un bateau ayant un gite particulièrement prononcé. Encore une autre réussite.
Très bien.
Dear Robbert, Take a photograph of a zodiac raises of the exploit, that stirs up, that bang, it is necessary to be held seriously not to go to join water without wanting to bathe. Beautiful catch of sight of a boat having a particularly marked lodging. Still another success. Very well.

Tout plein de petits détails ravissent le regard :o)
Le bleu de la coque à l'identique avec le bleu de la mer - les 3 petits voiliers à l'horizon sur la droite qui sont en file indienne -

>>>> I hope you like it to?

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS !

mortijo (12828) 2004-03-18 8:51

Prachtige actiefoto. Heerlijke kleuren en een mooie frame. Om dit te doen vanuit een zodiac moet je zeebenen hebben. Hoed af!!!!

merpb (2001) 2004-03-18 8:57

I just love those legs.
Great shot

avigur_11 (22535) 2004-03-18 9:16

A really tough tilt, but the guys siiting there and having fun, if they can only have a beer in their free hand..
A very funny shot, but very well captured, robbert. I like this theme very much.

Cougar (1752) 2004-03-18 10:05

Great picture Robbert, 3 differents blue and the boat is in a hot point. I also like all the other white sail on the horison line. Seem to be very relaxing the race in a sailboat, as long as your are not on the boat. ;-) Good shot

Kenny10pin (19301) 2004-03-18 11:14

Very sharp shot here, I like the guys on the side of the boat, I hope it didnt tilt the other way.

Great compostion, I like the boat on the right handside, well done

Intruder (3099) 2004-03-18 14:07

this one of the best pictures i've seen recently, the colours, the tilt boat, the waves and the way those other boats stand above the sea level and horizon look great. well done Robbert

hdl (7035) 2004-03-18 14:44

wat kan ik zeggen? Ze zijn en blijven prachtig.

sunny (3069) 2004-03-18 14:48

Seems you have developed a very strong and specific marine style in shooting pictures Robert! :-) I find it difficult to define what I like here most: the deep blue of the water, the horizon with the white boats, the dapper little clouds in the sky, or the tilted boat with its crew sitting on the edge...:-) Actually I like them all as your composition is perfect, so you have my full admirations for this picture!

jhonny_blue (4956) 2004-03-19 5:44

One more perfect boat picture !
It´s simply perfect !
Great colours, congratulations !

PLD_images (7149) 2004-03-19 8:31

The colors here are just perfect. The blue of the water is si beautifull. The action of the sail boat and angle of it is so good. With all the people on the side and a the ohter boats in the shot, this is a superb action shot.

didcreole (962) 2004-03-19 16:35

Another great sailing ship picture from you Robbert. I think this is one of the more photogenic thing on earth... Doh ! I mean... On sea... :-)

jiherka (4552) 2004-03-19 17:49

Very nice picture.
Well done Robbert.

jrj (34843) 2004-03-24 4:55

In my opinion this is one of the best pix in your series of sailing boats. Colours very strong and the boat "posing" in the best way with the whole crew on the side. Great story, full of life - you can almost smell the salt sea. Very good Robbert..

Gregtom (7169) 2005-06-10 3:35

Great shot, Robbert! Beautiful shot of a yacht, You leaved some space for her at the right side to get a full speed and use full range of wind... It makes me think about my summerdays' visit to the Great Lakes of Mazury in my home Poland, where I sail commonly. You have awaken my longing for the summer! Best wishes and thanks for sharing!
Greg

marjan (7) 2005-11-23 7:39

Hi Robbert
Great timing and nice shot with those people on the side of the boat. Well captured moment, good compo and colours.
< greetings Albrecht >

Hi Robbert,
Very funny but excellent shot! Of course, I like it very much! The sea-water colour is just unbelievable!!! One thing, you were also in another boat, I mean, where from you took this shot?
regards,
Mishreyee

jarek (495) 2007-06-08 9:20

Hello Robert,

Great sail photograph! I like the navy blue color of the water and composition, the place where placed the boat.
Thanks for sharing,

Jarek.
