Fisherman with dog

Sorry, just a gut reaction and obviously not the taste of other critiquers here. But I hope it may be seen as sincere and not meant to injure. There is room for all interests in our chosen hobby or profession.

This is not a picture, it's a Venus fly trap and you are the fly.

The bait, 'fishing' (who doesn't love fishing?), sucks you in, but just as you are realizing that there is nothing whatsoever to sit on in this 'picture,' you find yourself blown rather violently to the right, about two feet to the right of the frame to be exact, which is where the 'picture' really takes place. Ah, there it's summertime and the living is easy.

My eye is pulled to the tangle of the dogs legs with the mans, which is the only interesting aspect of the photo. After 5 seconds of sorting that out I am bored and want to look away.

A unique silhouette with that yellow and orange background, the man and his dog are very sharp and

completely devoid of any details,I don't know if it's a direct result from the camera or it's enhanced by the

author?. In any case the author is successful in producing a technically perfect work with the necessary

elements of aesthetic. I guess the supetelephoto lens have helped a lot.

I agree with you, Arthur, but sometimes the Coke etc. is just what you need.

I don't drink Coke. Too sweet. Empty calories. I'm not sure this would even make it as a Hallmark card. It's like a roses-are-red poem.

Wonderful, a great beauty, one of your best. Saludos. 

Only I am absent here! Compliments, Giangiorgio! PDE

Grazie mille Pierre for you visit and beautiful comment

Fantastic looking silhouette of the dog and fisherman against the amazing looking sky and clouds, Giangiorgio. The clouds have the look of intense heat. A very beautiful capture. Have a great day, Paul.

Thanks Paul for having appreciated the photo I'm glad you enjoyed
