They really look chilled out. I like the silhouettes, especially that of the man smoking. A really warm composition.

Thomas - I love the subtle cools in this one - and the inviting community of 'sundowners' sure makes this image look inviting. When is dinner?

wow -- this has such a great spiritual presence! this is certainly my favorite of all the wonderful pics i have seen of yours -- the golden glow is simply divine!! and the silhouetted figures give this an intimate and yet anonymous touch of humanity and comfort, exotic adventure and simple luxury -- i am really very impressed! gorgeous detail, astonishing light and color, perfect composition and a magnificently dynamic sky! wow! bravo! 10 out of 10!!

@dj.tigersprout: Dj, thank you so much! I am a selling photographer in Panama. (www.panama980.com) At the moment I'm not so focused on photography because of family circumstances in Holland. I have to go back there as fast as I can because my father doesn't have so much time left...
I've already uploaded a bunch of photos in advance but I'm not able to have a internet connection everyday.

@Alfredo J. Martiz J.: Thanks Alfredo!
