Warmth of the hope

by Md. Ziaul Hoque

The lone boats await for the boatmen to start a new day with high hopes, hopes to conquer their sorrows into joy, conquer their hardship for a better day as the sunshines grasp the darkness and color the world with it’s warmth.

Equipment: Canon 30D + Sigma 10 - 20 mm + ND 400 + Cokin P 120+121

Love the title and description. A new dawn with such mellow and gorgeous light tones should certainly inspire hope. Well composed, a lovely image.

Nice balancing and colors. I also like the way the water changed the reflected color in the sky before and after the boat. nice capture.

This is a beautiful warm picture. Where is this picture taken? The title is evocative but I feel left hanging not knowing who is using these boats! I like the shape of the boats and the design painted on them… What is that long board used for I wonder? You picture paints a story that I want to hear…Thanks for the inspiration…..

A fine photograph,the lighting and composition is exceptional.The close proximity to the foreground boat leads one into the rest of the picture with dramatic effect.

Good use of filters, nice composition. All in all a well thought and painstakingly taken shot.
The saturation of the sand and the wood of the boats however is a bit overdone.

I have been viewing the Earth Shots for 2 weeks.
This is the first time I have said, “Wow, that is
a really amazing and memorable photo.” The colors
were great and I had to know where it was taken.
Had to follow to the photographer’s website to find out it what most likely Bangladesh. You have an amazing eye and technique. I hope you continue with this professionally or as a lifelong hobby. Great work!

That boat is half filled with water? Is it leaking? Where on earth is this? Why are the people there so sorrowful? What do you mean by lone boats?

Very, very nice and warm tones. I really like this picture and it’s almost a painting. I do think you should not have cropped such a small part of the first boat. I would have cropped either more or would have tried to get that whole boat in the frame.
