A festival of colors in this shot, Jeppe, combined with the wonderful patterns provided by the sails and the flowers and grass in the foreground. I really like the beauty of this simple composition of horizontal layers. Definitely looking forward to the upcoming shots from the race.

A great angle and foreground, Jeppe.
Funny to see all these coloured saolboats.

Rockyboy (20580) 2004-06-05 11:09

Very colorful those sailboats... I like also the 2 different green in the foreground. Very nice picture, Jeppe!

Nice layering of green stuff in the foreground with the sailboats acting as flowers. Perfect weather for the race too, even a bit og wind it seems.

Funny colorful sails, green background is attractive, well done!

avigur_11 (21271) 2004-06-05 12:37

It's beautiful how you managed to have all sails sailing exactly towards you, Jeppe. This is an amazing shot, so sharp, colorful and well captured. Good job.

carper (63998) 2004-06-05 12:46

Fantastic photo Jeppe,
great composition, good colours, and I realy like it so as you took this one. It's a very good job you did here.

Liora (1857) 2004-06-05 13:25

Stunning composition! the idea of combining the boats with their spinnakers held out with the vegetation works wonderfully here.
Looking forward to seeing the rest...

sunny (3068) 2004-06-05 13:42

Wow! What a sunny bright mood here, Jeppe! ;-)) Wonderful colour and texture layers, together with the fine depth in POV and sharpness. Light is just perfect. Excellent shot!

Exellente profondeur de champ a mes yeux et superbe palette de couleurs sur le second plan cette image bien presentée donne un fini parfait et offre de trés belles teintes sur le haut de l'image.
L'equilibre est parfait bravo Jeppe

Superbe Jeppe ! Photo très nette, très colorée et à la profondeur de champ parfaite ! Du bon boulot !

Ah, this is so nice and colourful, one can feel the breeze, Jeppe. Nice layerworks as well!

rdans59 (263) 2004-06-05 17:14

Jeppe, this is a wonderful shot. Superb flowers on the foreground. The colors are very full and vibrant. I like all those colorful spinnakers in the wind. Very nice positioning of all the elements of the image. Great work!

Galeota (10329) 2004-06-05 17:42

Oooooohhhhhhhh YES!! This is very nice and suggestive photograph! I jst wish I was on one of those boats right now. Very sharp and you got an excelent range of colors.

hojper (2830) 2004-06-05 18:44

How clever of you to fill half the frame with green. There are so many boring shots of colourfull sailingboats on blue water beneath blue skies. This one is completely different. Another trick to take note of. Thank you. And it adds magnificant depth to the shot of course.

maphoto (8076) 2004-06-05 21:04

Marvelous colors and composition, the foreground is just fantastic, nice DOF, I like everything in your picture, very well done.

elihesamian (26091) 2004-06-05 22:54

The two layer of beautiful green tone & then two layer of blue tone,Excellent,this combination of natural colors in this shot.
the green in bottom like the blue in top are bright & two layer in middle are dark tone, a very great combination of colors captured & really well managed in this shot,what can I say about sailboats with beautiful colors in this shot,...The composition,with angle of view,very skilfully created.
You did great,Dear jeppe!

RGatward (19737) 2004-06-06 5:03

Hard to do something different with a scene like this, really good idea to include all the flora in the foreground.

Zanni (5885) 2004-06-06 5:53

The nature (flowers and plants in foreground and the sea) and men who respect it with their wonderful sailboats: I'm happy when there is this harmony.

kikvel (4772) 2004-06-06 9:01

WOW!!!! fantastic colors!!! earth, water and sky alltogether with the perfect add on of the sailboats! Just perfect!

Great view, EXCELLENT compoced with the front, good sharp, many beautiful color.

Da jeg flyttede sammen med konen boede vi i lejet hus ved havnen, der var et lysthus i baghaven, så vi lige sad og havde udsigt over banen, vi nød at sidde og se onsdags sejllads på fjorden, tak for minderne:-))

I must have missed this yesterday, but it's great. from the thumbnail i figured the sails were airballons. Good choice to get the green forground in the frame, it adds interest - Great job Jeppe.

strangiato (76) 2004-06-07 9:57

Nice multi-layered image Jeppe. All the lines and different colours make this photo ver good.

DonQ (2623) 2004-06-07 17:03

Another great work with many beautiful colors from you again. Two dominant dark strips in the middle (Blue & Green) and two lightly coloured (again the same colors - blue -sky & greeny -plant at the foreground).
I Can`t say other than - excellent work Jeppe. I like this capture!

dominique (11403) 2004-06-09 14:46

Superb, the composition is extraordinary, likes the plane disagreement and the colors are powerful, of the great work.

bebel (7337) 2004-06-13 16:51

Belle photo très lumineuse ; les bateaux semblent arriver droit sur le photographe. Les couleurs sont hyper réalistes !

Motrem (2392) 2004-06-17 14:11

Votre photo est superbe, vous deviez être heureux d'être là. Très belle composition, couleurs et ambiance magnifiques.

jhonny_blue (4938) 2004-06-22 4:43

Fantastic shot Jeppe ! Nice colours and a very good composition.
Congratulations

danbachmann (1682) 2004-07-03 5:10

Good use of foreground and colours that work well together. Your angle is very good too which makes the boats appear coming almost directly towards you.

Historically the waters would have been extremely important to this part of the world (well, all of the world, but especially in a country with most of the border being sea). I wonder how many years this race has run...

kaychambers (1196) 2004-07-09 8:24

I love this, it makes we want to be there NOW and not here in hot and steamy Singapore.
Beautiful colours and like the horizontal colour bands very much.
Nicely done
