Hi, Karen,
my deepest condolences on your loss. I, as yet, cannot tell you I know how you feel. But I know what loss is. And it's never easy. Great shot. Your eye for composition never fails. Beautiful light and color with excellent clarity and detail. I love that two sided view and the exposure is perfect. Outstanding! Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

Wonderful shot, Braca!!
The light is just beautiful. Lovely color, excellent detail and very well composed. I especially like how you can see so far across the mountains in the distance. That is an amazing church, too. Great shot! Many thanks and hope things are brighter!

Dang, Bev,
you are so right. That light does almost make that shabby looking wall seem nice. Your note is very well written and echoes around the globe, I think. I see it everywhere I go around my part of the world. Sad, huh?

You managed that light beautifully and the color is so warm and ... comforting, maybe. The detail is excellent and I love all the great lines and shadows and textures. That's a really emotional shot for some reason. Superb! Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

You know what I like about you, Branko?
Not only do you have a very sensitive side and a wonderfully kind heart, you have a rascally side, too. :)) Great shot! The lighting was handled beautifully and I love those vivid colors and contrasts. Great composition and clever and well executed idea. The expressions are so natural. And that's what you have a way with. Marvelous shot! Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

Good evening, Constantino,
what a pretty shot. I love silhouettes and here you have many and they are ALL nice. The mountains, the large boats in the distance, smaller ones near the front and the lone girl walking by. BEAUTIFUL evening colors and you can almost feel the breeze and hear the boats creaking in the water. What a lovely and peaceful scene. Many thanks and kindest wishes,
Shelly

Oh WOW! Giorgio,
what magnificent light and color! That just knocks your eye out from the thumbnail and then, oh man - brilliant composition, perfect clarity and sharpness, and that wonderful sky. Wow. My great compliments on such a beautiful photo! Many thanks and kindest wishes,

That is such a cool picture, Dan.
I LOVE that view through the arch and the way the dark inside makes such a great frame. Wonderful light and color on the scene in the distance and good detail. There are so many outstanding lines and curves and angles... That really is cool. Well done! Many thanks and warm regards,
Shelly

Greetings, Ekrem.
That is a fabulous shot! Perfect light under difficult conditions, mad nice composition with the falls coming down in two directions. Lovely rich color and remarkable detail. I love those gold leaves in the FG and the trees in back echoing the color. Perfect exposure time, too, for that REALLY nice water flow. That is just an awesome photograph. Many thanks and great respect for such a beautiful shot,
Shelly

Just unbelievable, Phil.
You are right - all you'd need to do is turn, look up, look sideways and these things would be different and just as amazing. Fabulous color, great PP bringing out the details, well composed and good close crop. Awesome shot! Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

Oh, Shaeri,
that is just awesome! I love the solitary figure on the beach surrounded by all those golden tones. Wonderful light management and I love the way the water looks like molten gold. Simply beautiful. Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly
