...But Búzios hasn't only seagulls.

[Otavio]

Hi. After sharing a long set of seagulls (The Seagulls of Búzios (Brazil)), here are more shots from Búzios, from last weekend. As mentioned on the previous set, the sky was very clouded, unfortunately . C&C welcomed. Thanks for viewing.

1 - Starfish



2 - The street of stones. This is where the nightlife (bars/Restaurants/Shops) of this small town takes place.



3 - My son and my niece



4 - Grebe. This is not very common here. I wished the sky was brigth ...



5 - Teenagers playing football



6 - A house, and a view...

Otavio,
Very nice set of photos. Picture #1 is the best! The starfish photo is very sharp and shows details that I had never seen before.
There is such a wide variety of subjects in the other pictures I think it would have been better if you had started several threads, some of them in the "People & Pets".

Yes the starfish is definitely cool I would like to see the other side of it.

Thank you Antonio, for viewing and for your input. I tried to show various aspects of Buzios, after a long series of seagulls. Regards,

Hi Otavio. Awesome!

How do you do it?? Gosh! I can't get the same IQ from my D5100 ?!!

I guess it's the photographer not the camera......................

Thank you for sharing. These are views of a place I have never been. The starfish is exquisite. I love the textural combinations and the coloration. I enjoyed your other images as well.

You are blessed with living in such a lovely location.

Hi Victor. Thanks. I have seen high quality pictures shared by you! Anyway, if you are not 100% happy with them, try to criticize your own images, and practice a lot, specially the focus/Shutter speed. These two basic parameters are oftenly responsible for bad quality pictures. I usually use the single point (center) autofocus. So, observe the light, have the sun behind your head, try not using slow speeds (camera shake) and obtain a good focus.

My 2 cents...

Kindest regards...

Hi Otavio: This is a very nice series of photos. As much as I like nature shots, my favourite of the bunch is the one of the children. This is such a sweet moment and will be great for these kids to look back on when they are older.

Hi Suzan. I fully agree that they will love to look back to these moments later in life! This boy (my son, Vítor Hugo) has been my main source of motivation in everything I do. I am glad you liked the image!

Thanks for passing by...

Cheers!

Hi Otavio,

I'm changing my mind... I adore the starfish (as I love nature shots) but I've decided that the photo of your children is my favourite because although both are perfect the photo of your children captures a special feeling and a special moment in time.

Love the starfish ....

Hi Christina, thanks for revisiting and for your comment! Yes, that picture has certainly a special feeling. It is one that I will keep as a record of a very nice moment we had, in family, in the beaches of Búzios. Kindest regards...
