In our latest workshop, we were headed back up river from the coast, and I had our guide turn the boat around so we could capture this scene. By the time we circled a second time, the light was gone.

Pretty cool - I would have maybe liked to see some of the surroundings, but this does evoke an emotion...

In this case, I felt the surroundings were too busy and did not add to the scene. For me, it was all about the light, and therefore, less is more.

After I saw your thoughtful comment, I went back and looked at the other photographs I made here, and my eye kept coming back to this one for the reasons stated above.

Nice image, reminds me of my Amazon trip many years ago. I like the light on the dugouts, in this case IMHO a dark background is best. Thanks for sharing.
