Hi Liliana. Dramatic composition, lighting and elevated PoV. The ray of light accentuates the sense of solitude as the person seems to be in a world of his own. Regards. Klaudio.

Nice picture and good title. He does look so lonely and since the sun is above it creates sihloutte and makes him seem like "everyman". I like the ray of sun just above as well.

Very well exposed image of the snow with excellent texture captured. The sun's ray is pointing right at the silhouette. Well done

Excelente texturi si joc de umbre si lumini. Compozitie originala-zapada, linia muntelui, cu cerul albastru deasupra si acel om singuratic pe creasta. In plus, o singura raza de lumina. Foarte interesant si creativ.

TFS,

Andreea

ciao lili,
interesanta compozitie cu minimum de elemente - foarte bun contrastul (ca textura si culoare) dintre zapada ravasita si cerul asa de senin. prezenta omului ne arata dimensiunea reala a intregii scene. foarte bun unghiul ales si bine vazuta imagine!

Hello Liliana,

I like the composition of your photo with many details on the snow in opposition to the empty sky full of blue and the person just put on the horizon in order to get a full visibility of its silhouette.
Simple, graphical and efficient.

I put a workshop to remove the ray of the sun.

Yves.

Hi Lili
the low Pov exalts the contrast in the snow.
The silhouette of the man with sled has something of epic.
Cheers

Hi Liliana!
Your low POV creates a nice perspective and the view at the silhouete of this man on top is as great as the vertical sunbeam.Very fine details at the snow and an amazing contrast with the sky.A great shot,very well seen and done.
Regards,Leo
The round dot at the left side of the sky looks like you had dust at the lens or the sensor.

atilgone (4749) 2007-05-07 14:02

Hi Liliana :)
Simple composition but you could charm out beautiful picture. I'm impressed. I can see some stains in the sky area but they don't disturb to see the picture.
Best regards
Jack :)

Budapestman (42128) 2007-05-08 4:11

Hi Liliana,
Its a very expressive photo, small lonely figure on this hill express loneliness, indeed. I like the contrast beetwen the sky and the glittering snow field. The POV is very impressive.
Very good shot.
Have a nice week. Thank you
George

Ps. I saw your photo from Ellmau and its really looks like my photo. Beautiful place, indeed.

saylan-cb (12726) 2007-05-08 5:24

Hi Liliana
A very interesting mountain composition.Great snow texture and pretty sky.
Well done.
TFS/Regards

pboehringer (770) 2007-05-08 20:29

You're right, Liliana. The photography tells the story. The sunray coming down behind the person gives a good additional element to this otherwise minimalistic approach.
TFS, Peter

vinicio (22414) 2007-05-09 8:00

A moment not easy to find, but necessary some time...
Image full of beautiful colors and with nice atmosphere of a vacation day on the snow, well done Liliana, a fresh air of winter in this warm day of spring, compliments.
Ciao
Vinicio

Hi Liliana.
An excellent, a superb composition!
You had a great idea to captured it, and the photo has very nice contrasts and light.
Cheers
Evan

singuanti (15240) 2007-05-15 22:48

Hi Lili. The person is perfectly placed on the hill to make best use of their loneliness. You have a very nice play of light throughout the broken up chunks of snow. I might have cloned the thing at the very top which looks to be lens flare. Beautiful shot Lili!

Emile (20003) 2007-05-19 18:21

Hola Liliana.
Very good shot with an nice title, the man sitting on the top looks enhanced by the sharp blue sky producing a very good silhouette. Good frame and POV. Well done. TFS.
Cheers.

gbeli (2026) 2007-06-03 7:54

Hello Liliana

The color of the sky is deep, and the snow is looks like fresh.

Es una belleza de fotografía, me encanta el rayo de luz que cae sobre la persona, le da un toque especial a la soledad.

Abrazos...

pablominto (40824) 2007-06-10 3:44

Hello Lili,
This is a pleasant view today, as the temperature is approaching 30C..!
I like the framing giving attractive lines to the composition, where the silhouetted guy is the spice...
Fine colours, great details in the snow!
Greetings,

prumod (8262) 2007-06-11 12:46

hi lilana...
very dreamy scene... dramatic too... everything nicely composed here... the depth sky is very attractive....
greetings...

mphotographies (1976) 2007-07-03 3:06

Hey Lili,

Great details on the foreground and blue contrast is eye catching. The quality is amazing as it is, the 'ray' is natural looking as it represent where the sun is coming from. I'm kinda bothered with the 'round 'smudge' found in the left most part of the image but nonetheless GREAT imagery!

All the best!

Hello Liliana,
very well captured shot from an effective low pov. You managed greatly the not easy back-lighting conditions. The compo with the black silhouette is very effective and really attractive. Very good work!
Tfs and best wishes.
Attila

Angshu (33795) 2007-10-06 21:36

Hello Liliana
Your exposure control is brilliant, as you show us the wonderful textures in the snow. Also lovely how the sun's ray directly points on the silhouetted person. Excellent contrasts in this very good shot!
Best Regards
Angshuman

cam (8880) 2007-11-12 4:23

Hi Liliana
Simple one but with strength.A dark silhouette over a white( good light management here) mountain and under a blue sky, good contrast.
The ray of light gives something divine to the photo, as it is saying to be trusty and go...
Have a good week
Charles
