Superbe photo, j'aime beaucoup les couleurs un peu sombre de la photo, ce cliché de ce cimetière de bateaux est bien cadré et bien présenté.
Bravo Gilad, j'aime beaucoup.

Wow, great composition. The string b/w contrast on the ship gives then a very graphic appearance, a good contrast to the towering clouds in the background. Looks very unreal and scary!

Excellent composition. I love the colours and contrasts in this shot!
Dramatic sky, great mood.
Very, very well seen, captured and presented.

Rust never sleeps... A stated before, the stark contrast you obtained by post processing is quite impressive, turning this image into an allegory on decay and oblivion.
Yet (forever curious, as always), I wonder what the original shot looks like... ;-)

I like it, good contrast of colours. Well done.

Wow, a greeat shot, Gilad, and a very very good PP. Wonderful work of contrast (and the clarify tool?), and composition. I like it very much.

Such a great and powerful picture. The very strong contrast (and very harsh light) is wonderfully suited to the dramatic, sad aspect of the place. They have reached a place from which they cannot be rescued.

Superb photograph, with splendid colors!! it reigns an apocalyptic atmosphere (the day following the end of the world)
I like much the strong contrast of the black and white of the boats.
Congratulations

Nice, original picture. The colorisation and softness makes it even look more dramatic; very good composed and framed.

It would be nice to have more details on your ps work.

Ciao Gilad
This is a pretty cool image, love the simple tones,strong contrats of the sky against the sand. really nice.
I've taken the liberty of adding it to a theme I've created here on TE called 'Shipwrecked' hope that's cool with you.
Bravo
Simone..

Whoa, very strong and expressive colors. Through the contrast and the somehow aged look this longs for a glossy postcard. Great location, as I personally like this kind of desolate places. The gloomy horizon adds to the mystical environment.

A piece of history of past days. These boats were surely the pride of a fisherman somewhen in the old days and now they lie here in the cemetary. Well captured!
