Blue hour at dusk - a view from the dunes of Porto Pollo to Spargi Island at the north coast of Sardinia, Italy. This is the first image of my recent series from this location, consisting mainly of intimate scenes.

Good eye for composing and nicely capturing a scene that would be easy to pass by. The soft light works well with all these elements in this frame.

Oh, wow! This is much nicer than the thumbnail lets on. I love the variety of texures, shapes, and colors in the vegetation. Very nicely composed and captured.

I also like the soft light and the quiet mood and feel. Also, the subdued colors. Very nice.

Well composed and interesting throughout the image. I love the subtle color variations going on in the plants. The web version feel a little oversharpened to me - maybe pull back a little next time. I'm not sure if the closest flowers are OOF. If so, it would be a pity.

Hi Peter, Nice work with your composition on this scene. I enjoy the light and colors you captured which gives this a very nice feel. Some nice textures in this also.
