Although I have posted a very similar picture a year ago, I thought that TE viewers would pleased to see another one of these children rushing to school on a dusty road. We are in 1986 , and I was on a Club Mediterranee tour, but left the boat very early in the morning and found this incredible golden light.

LIke they are coming on earth from another dimension,from a dream!!!!I love this image,Izzet!!!Amazing one!!!The management of light creates so much atmosphere....
Tesekkur ve tebrikler

Hello Mr. Keribar,
Very impressive photo of silhouettes of running children in a dusty corridor. Fading depth and the yellow light look marvellous. Natural framing with the dark visions of plants are well designed. Regards,
Deniz

Hallo from Germany!
This is a wonderful shot - full of life, full of beauty! This tunnel out of plants with the light from behind works very well here. A great photo!
Greetings!
Frank

Beautiful shot! A very nice atmosphere potrayed of the school going!! tfs :)

Hi Izzet,

a wonderful shot. Excellent colors and light/contrasts. Looks unreal. Great work. TFS

This is superb Izzet, really atmospheric!
Shooting into the light has transformed it into an essentially monochrome image, and it works well.
Only the darkness on the right of the frame disturbs slightly, but I don't think it matters too much.
Excellent work.

Cheers,
Ben

The color is wonderful, it creates the mood for this.
Wonderful lighting and capture of the scene. It throws me there for a second

Merhaba İzzet Bey,
İşte bu "MUHTEŞEM" oldu... Işık sihirbazı Sayın Keribar'dan sihirli bir kare şeklinde... Üstelik hayalimdeki kompozisyonlardan birinin enfes bir kadrajla karşıma çkması da çok güzel bir sürpriz oldu.... Ellerinize sağlık ....

Hi izzet,
Just a great shot. The mood and the atmosphere is just brilliant.Wonderful use of the lighting condition as well.
regards.

This is a stunning picture. The overhanging palms give the feeling of creating a sort of tunnel the children and walking and running though. It captures the atmosphere and the feeling of the moment extremely well. congrats, great take.

yes, quite a rewarding view for an early morning effort...golden world and in a distance - a secretful white world...one asks oneself "where are they comming from?"...
fascinating moment, fantastic light...
bw, j.

the light makes this shot an excellent one. i like how the children seem to be emerging out of the dust towards us. a fine composition that i can learn a lot from. well done!

Very nice atmosphere. It has a mystic connotation as the sun behind hides the details.

The sense of atmosphere in this is incredible, because of the backlighting and the dust we can almost see in 3 dimensions. Nice grouping of the children too, which seems very natural and lively. Well done!

merhaba İZZET BEY . tüm detaylar çok güzel.
-yerdeki noktasal parlamalar.
-çocukların saçlarındaki aydınlık görüntüleri.
-ve en çok hoşuma giden iki detaydan biri.
arkada kalmış iki çocuğun toz duvarı ardındaki görüntüsü
-ve hemen üstlerindeki ağaç dallarının toz bulutları arasındaki netlik ve fluu geçişleri.
İZZET bey bize düşmez belki.
ışığı fotoğraflarınızda çok başarılı kullanıyorsunuz!

ışık ve karartı üzerine .muhteşem bir çalışma.
. iyi haftasonları dilerim.sağlıcakla kalın .
İNAN UÇ ...( bir tek . soldaki açıklığın dikkat dağıttığını belirtmeliyim.müsadenizle birazcık doğasını bozabilecek birde workshop yapıp gönderiyorum. )

Merhaba Izzet.

It is easy understand why it has so many critiques.
Simply, excellent.
Why explain the reason?
They are evident.
And I prefer enjoy the beauty of this moment and this photo.

Take care.

Salam Izzet
A propos de Denderah j'ai trouvé un texte qui donne à réflechir:

Un contre-jour intéressant qui donne une belle ambiance brumeuse ... Que de souvenirs pour moi
Amitiés.

Merhaba,
nefis bir ışık ustanın gözünden süzülerek nasıl büyülü bir hal alıyor ...

bu bir film karesi; hüzünlü, altın rengi, günün vedasına uygun, yoksul çocukların avuntusu, onları seyreden arkadaki siluetlerin hayranlıkla baktığı güzel bir kare. yönetmenini de tanıyorum: İzzet Keribar!
tebrikler, teşekkürler hocam bu görsel şölen için

Hello Izzet. Thank you for sharing this "oldie" for which it certainly paid off to get up early. Lovely mood created by the warming golden morning sun, and the way in which it makes the cheerful group of children appear from the hazy setting. Beautiful work, my friend.

A remember a very similar earlier shots from you, I think. Love this dusty, nostalgic color effect and silhouette.

Hi Izeet (Bey),
Great siluette of childs with backlight. Shadows and highlight areas cacth my eyes to the center of your composition. Masterpiece. Saygılarımla

Olá Izzet, fantastic golden lighting on this very early morning day. What a marvellous atmosphere and festive set of the kids' sillouettes coming towards you. Incredible capture from 21 years ago, my friend. You are allways there at surise hour to get these magic moments.
Friendly regards,
ricardo

Hello Izzet Bey,
This is THE BEST photo I have seen today on TE. The composition is flawless. The dust gives a wonderful allover misty atmosphere, the color is absolutely superb, and the arch/circle that the tree makes is simply wonderful ( with 1 L)
I wish you an excellent week.
Best personal regards. Salvator.
PS. Thank you for your advice regarding my last photo on Ortakoy, I should have been more to the right, to include the boat and use a norrower angle.

Absolutely beautiful how the shadows of the kids fade in the distance. The light is just amazing. Regards, Yvonne

Bonjour Izzet
un rapide petit tour sur ta galerie et le plaisir de decouvrir des petits morceaux de sucre pur comme cette image de gamins partant à l'ecole dans le flou sépia du petit matin.
un vrai bonheur.
amicalement
alain

İzzet bey selamlar,
Sabahın altın rengi ışığında okula koşan çocuklar harika bir görünüm sergilemişler.
Yumuşak pastel renkler ile çok etkileyici ve bir o kadar da güzel bir kare. Hayat ve sevgi dolu bir kare....
Elinize sağlık.
İyi günler,
Emir Nedim

Hi Izzet,

This is so wonderful .. these children hurrying towards us out of this golden mist .. really thoughtful image .. beautiful as well. The interaction of bright and dark is striking .. the diffuse textures are really wonderful as well.

thanks for sharing it.

take care,

John

When I see things from your archives Izzet I often feel a bit of nostalgia for film. SOmetimes hard to quite duplicate some qualities digitally. THe range of tones here is magnificent, and so well captures the beautiful light on the scene.

Merhabba Izzet Bey,

Cette photo m'a sauté aux yeux, c'est celle qui me parle le plus dans votre page de récentes photos, et puis j'ai lu la critique et c'est amusant, j'ai travaillé comme "G.O." dans cette organisation pendant quelques 14 années, G.O. ski et excursions et par hasard, j'ai fait un intérim entre le Sénégal et la Turquie (Kusadasi) en avril-mai 1986, entre le Caire et les bâteaux sur le Nil et les avions, nous nous sommes peut être rencontrés !

... Probablement pas, il y avaient parfois jusqu'à 80 ou 90 personnes à bord et nous devions être au moins 4 tour leaders, si je me souviens bien !

... Mais cette photo... J'ai vu une pareille lumière dans le nord de la Birmanie et aussi en Thailande, - quant à l'Egypte, je ne m'en souviens plus, on avait des horaires d'enfer et on croulait sous les soucis et le travail et la "tourista"...

Il y a une atmosphère merveilleuse ici, ces enfants ont l'air de courir vers nous et j'aime ce beau cercle de lumière laissé par la végétation...

Gerçekten mükemmel,
Ellinize saglik,
Cath.
