Touching Us Softly Photo

Photographers Note

The morning greeted me with its gentle colours and soft murmur of the sea. The light was kind to my eyes as both I and Sarawak faced a new day. On mornings like these one cannot but think of places where children and adults cower in fright as bombs explode, as screams invade their souls and blood and debris fills their lives.

Hello Klaudio,

Elegant simplicity!
The vast South China Sea is a vital part, as the lazy surf is washing the shores of Borneo...
The palm tree is to remind us where we are, and the light hitting the distant cloud formation just adds beauty!

Greetings,

This is indeed so soft and sombre. I like the colour scheme and the way you have composed this one Klaudio

Hi Klaudio,
the colours are really very soft and gentle, and very much pastel-like! this view evokes good, a bit nostalgic emotions and helps to relax when you look at it, and especially at the faint clouds in the distance.
Concerning your words in the Note about children and fear of bomb explosions... I agree: it's impossible not to think of it - at least from time to time when your mind gets free and is cleaned by Nature's beautiful sights. But, frankly speaking, when looking at such a view I'd rather think of something quiet and pleasant. Maybe because I'm emotionally exhausted by living under a constant stress in Russia where you don't know what to expect tomorrow.
Kindest regards,
Elena

Hi Claudio,
very scenic presentation. i like the softness of the view and also the beauty it renders. Well captured to depict the story told.
The distance clouds are very special, like a silvery view.

Zdravo Klaudio,
Your shot is very romantic and of good photographic quality. In addition, the note is written in excellent philosophic and poetic style. And finally, the title looks like words from a well-known song. Perfectly good post!
Best regards,
