Turbulent Waters; Turbulent History, a photo from Bosniak-Croat, West

Photographer's Note

The waters of the Neretva River that flow under the Old Bridge in Mostar have seen much in the past centuries and recent decades.Innocent blood had mingled with its waters through many conquest and wars. The hope is that the shedding of blood has come to its end.
This scene is from another bridge that spans the river.

Bonjour Klaudio
Il suffit de suivre ce cours d'eau vert et de se laisser guider vers la ville.Un bel assemblage de teintes pour cette jolie composition.
Bonne journée.
Cordialement
Gildas

Hi Klaudio,

Beautifull shot. The waters flow in strength... and its power is well shot. The green here is impressive.

Namasthe :)

Hi Klaudio,
This is a very attractive vista. The lead-in river and the houses atop the hills are the highlights of this composition. Greetings, Danilo

Good exposure and DOF. The river creates a leading line to the mountain. Nicely done.

There is some wonderful places in the world thata we never hear about . This certainly is one of them Klaudio. Not sure what camera you use but if possible I would use a grey grad filter to balance the exposure in the skies. Even if its just held up to the lens without hassle of holder. Well done.

Hi Klaudio, judging from your text there have probably been times when this river didn't look as good as it does here. The shot shows good colour and clairity throughout.

Thanks, John

Zdravo Kaludio
Zaista istorija i sva dogadjanja nisu isla na ruku nikome tamo i nema pobednika.Svi su porazeni jer rat nikome nije doneo dobro...
Sto se Mostara tice on je izgubio svoj dragulj bas u vihoru rata a i samo ime mu vise zvuci sada nostalgicno
Ne ponovilo se nikada vise
Pozdrav,Braca

Great landscape - the impressively sized river rushes from the mountains through the town. Well composed and captured.
Cheers!
Dave.

Hello Klaudio,
This is such beautiful place that hard to connect it with innocent blood and horror of war. But unfortunately we can't change history. Thanks for excellent picture from this place and good note.
Best regards,
Maciek

Bok Klaudio,
Bas si lijepo ovdje uhvatio Neretvu. Iz ovog kuta njene vode stvarno djeluju mocno, a boja joj je tako privlacno zelena. I ovdje je dubina slike impresivna, a pogled jednostavno klizi prema planini u pozadini.
Pozdrav,
Vedrana

You have so many beautiful pictures in your gallery. I especially like this one. A very pretty scene with wonderful pov. Beautiful colors. TFS

Zdravo Klaudio.

Prvo bih da se izvinim jer več dugo želim da pogledam vaše slike, ali mi se čini da mi vrijeme jednostavno isklizne iz ruku.

Uglavnom, ova slika je prelijepa. Neko ko nikad nije bio na Starom mostu u Mostaru teško je opistai ljepotu i osjećaj koji se doživi tamo. Ova vaša slika je u mnogome uspjela približiti taj osjećaj... Svaka čast..

Puno lijepih pozdrava iz BiH, dodjite nam opet.

Semra :)
