Bonjour Christian,

Quiet and fine picture, nice spring picture.
Wonderful light and colour.
Great composition, also sharpness and clarity are superb.
I would here use F/18 on tripod, but I find this picture very well.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice weekend,
John

Sapevo che era tua prima di leggere il nome. Un marchio di fabbrica queste luci. Ma avete anche il mare in Carinzia !? Scherzo...
Bellissime luci, come sempre
ciao Stefano

Dead calm.. There is no wind, no sound, no single move.. there is ocean of the air.. air lighter then thought, air of the most unbelievable colors one can imagine..
The image which appear in the mind two seconds before falling asleep.. with dark element inside to keep balance.. not to get lost in the never-ending..
with regards, agn

Hey Christian, I can't resist to the red trace in the sky contrsating with your blue shot.

Hi Christian, the hues and the tones are absolutely superb and very well composed. I love the way you have compsoed this effect

coco (27754) 2009-03-16 6:44

Hi Christian.

I agree with John: f/18 and tripod... but also he is right: this is a very good photo.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Chris,

WOW! What a place!!! Is it Earth or already a different planet?;)

Superb!
Greetings,

PS. What kind of jam I should bring to Venice:-)?

Wandering_Dan (3209) 2009-03-19 20:55

Hi, Christian -

Great concept here. I'm a little thrown off by the undifferentiated mass of blue at the bottom, but the sky and the colors in the distance more than make up for it.

Best,
Dan

cherryripe (18869) 2009-03-21 12:12

Hi Christian
The smoothness and colour of the water makes this image so peaceful. The high horizon is well placed to show off the silhouette of the mountains and varied sky really well.
Regards
Nikki

Hello Christian,
I remember these albums and the fact that I always had a preference for the A side.
Here, both ones are very nice and interesting.
But still, my preference is for the A side;-)
Your shot shows beautiful colours and and gives a very pleasant impression of softness.
Superb!
Regards,
Marianne

Hello Christian!
It's just a great view, colours and idea.
Very good picture!

Floydian (30970) 2009-03-25 15:17

Hallo Christian,

The 30 sec gave you a wonderful soft glow over the water, like a silk blanket, but also the sky has a touch of that. Maybe even 2 or 3 minutes would give you even more, but this is already very very very good work.
A great balance in light and composition with wonderful colours...an image that i like to make myself.

Regards,

Henk

eversmile (5995) 2009-03-25 16:53

Hi Christian

I love the atmosphere here : the peaceful feeling the picture sends to us, the delicate hues of colors, the fragility of this harmony, the softness of the texture with the death of the sun. A beautiful, elegant capture, that allies simplicity and intensity. Bravo!
Regards
Marine

giorgimer (20990) 2009-03-29 14:46

Ciao Christian,

immagine straordinaria, nella sua essenzialità pare quasi un quadro astratto. Eccezionale questo aspetto quasi "liquido" anche degli elementi solidi.

Bravissimo!!!

Hi christian
Browsing galleries that I missed when in India
Quite a morning light ! You've been right to wake up early this day to catch this blue/pink !
Regards
Patrick

Angshu (33533) 2009-04-05 1:11

Hello Christian
The 30 second exposure gave the water the lovely silky sheen. I like the gradation of colours in the sky from red to pink to deep blue. The small hill is very well composed off-centre, in complete silhouette. A very fine work!
Regards
Angshu

Hallo Christian,
mein lieber Mann - wenn man deine Intro liest, könnte man fast Mitleid bekommen. Bestimmt hast es inzwischen gemerkt:
YES YOU CAN! Es gibt jede Menge Fotospezialisten, die sowas, wie dieses traumhafte Bild garantiert nicht hinbekommen - weil sie es sich nicht vorstellen können und es niemals sehen, selbst wenn sie am gleichen OPrt zur gleichen Zeit wären. GENIAL - mehr kann ich dazu nicht sagen.
Gruss,
Thomas

johnfreeman (2220) 2009-04-20 7:56

Hi Christian,
I love the dreamy atmosphere here with the milky, turquoise water, those beautiful layered clouds and the hint of dawn in the far distance. You can almost feel the opaline water pulling you in.
John
