Description
This is on the Malecon, the long boardwalk in Puerto Vallarta. It's my first post from here, the obligatory sunset, with a bit of a twist. As the sun starts to go down, people just stop in their tracks and turn towards the sun. I loved this shot, got just what I wanted, sometimes I get lucky!!
Hasta Luego, amigos!!
This is for you, Mad-Mike, your first beach foto!! Thanks for all those hot GTO's, specially those red ones!!!

Very nicely done. the soft color as the sun sets is soothing and seeing those people watch it only makes you look at it too all the more.
That is a shot that will be shown around the worl by many people. What a wonderful idea to capture the people also. great...
Oooh, this is a fun pic. I love it when stuff gets self-referential like that. I love the whole composition of this piece though. It's a nice twist, and a delicious play on something that always seems to happen. I noticed it among tourists in HUGE groups. They stop, specifically to take pictures of sunsets or landmarks, but what they get is mostly a picture of OTHER tourists taking pictures. But to do that on purpose brings the whole thing into a really cool, ironic perspective. And on top of all of that long windedness...this is a great capture and the sunset IS gorgeous and beautifully offset by the sailboat and the photographers.
Wonderful shot! That goes to show 7 out of 10 tourists carry a camera ! I love it .
Nice shot of the beautiful sunset and sailboat. Everyone wants a piece of the action. Excellent. Aloha
Picture of photographers. Nice one. Sky colors are beautiful.
Wonderful work...its an excellant shot.
Beautiful!!!
Great to see people appreciate a wonderful sunset!! Great capture my friend ...
It seems almost like a religion with everybody holding there small digi-camera looking at the small screen insted of enjoying the real thing. Nice capture.
Chip said it all, and saved me the trouble! Excellent image.
Ditto, Bonker, et al. This is a most interesting discussion surrounding your most provocative photo, beachzz.
perfectly timed and captured ... a real special sunset moment thru the sail boat here that is beautifully enhanced by the watching silhouttes in the foreground!!

I was there at Puerto Vallarta but never shot stuff like this. Had a lot of fun too. cool shot and thanks for memorys comeing back
Ah! a sea worth sloop! the sturn cuts down towards the bow instead of further to the back. Must've sailed down the coast. Lucky peeps aye. Bonker bonked it right on the nose. It's one thing to snap a pic of it...it's another to enjoy it. But it's nothing bad. Nice shot! the sun peiring through the sail is a good look.
So Beautiful ...... Awesome capture , the mood is there , Ana
Fantastic image, thats why I love my fantastic country but Ballarta its fantastic...excellent capture!!!
Excellent Capture!!! Bravissimo!!!
Wonderful capture!!!
wonderful capture.. creative shot..great work
excellent !
wonderful point of view... never thought of that before...
Nicely captured. I guess the people all wait for the sailboat to be in the right place. The silhouetted figures make the picture. Excellent job, the horizon is level too!!!
