Photographer’s Note
MARINA IN TROGIR
The extraordinary medieval town seen in this photo is Trogir, on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia. During the 3rd and 4th centuries BC, Greek settlers first colonized the site, which in the 1st century AD became the Roman municipality, ‘Tragurium Civium Romanorum.’ Then, after the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century, Trogir developed as an independent city. During the medieval years, there were frequent altercations with the Venetians who tried to annex it. To no one's surprise the city sided with the Hungarians who offered it independence.
The period of rising prosperity would come to an abrupt halt when the Venetians finally vanquished the city in 1420. The subsequent occupation would last almost four centuries, a period during which the city would be allowed to languish. Trogir would gain its independence one more time, in 1797, but this would be short lived, with Napoleon's forces invading and occupying the city next — another short period. The next invasion would come from the Austrians, who would conquer and dominate it during the hundred-year period, 1814-1914. Democratization began in Trogir in 1848, but thirty years later the inhabitants of the town would be dominated by the Croats. Following WWI, Trogir and the larger Croatia would become part of the State of South Slovenes. Not until the 1970s, however, would the quality of life begin to improve significantly, when the shipbuilding industry began to flourish, offering employment to over 50% of the inhabitants of Trojir. It was this industry, coupled with an accelerated growth of tourism that brought prosperity to the citizens. Finally, with UNESCO's acknowledgement of Trogir as a World cultural Heritage in 1997, and an ongoing process of integration into the European Community, the city’s and Croatia’s future appears truly promising, its long history of frequent vicissitudes finally vanishing into its history. During the medieval years, the style of architecture of its monumental buildings, including its cathedral, was Romanesque or Gothic, recognizable by interlaced ornamentation in its arched doorways.
In 2007 I had posted a pair of images shot on the same occasion: “The Red Boat” and "Green Net...Red Boat". This is now a third photo showing the lovely marina. Unlike the other two images, this one does not have a prominent focal point like the "red boat," but the overall composition should present the port's most salient features. One thing I've learned from my experience in the past year is to minimize the size of the frames.
For the record, the legendary 13th century traveler, Marco Polo, originally hailed from Korcula, Croatia, not far from Trogir, and moved to Venice, from where he started his expedition to the Far East. And the modern necktie had its origins in Croatia, as "cravat."
In early August 2006, the cruise ship Crystal Symphony, on which I was serving as the enrichment lecturer, anchored off the coast of Split. In a rented car, we traveled the less than half-hour distance to Trogir.

Hey Bulent,
A nice shot of the marina and a nice city it is indeed. As someone mentioned before me, the proportions are very nice, and the scene itself is marvelous (probably looks better than on a sunny day, because the clouds are a nice addition), but is there some noise involved or is the grain intentional?
Anyway, a pleasant picture to behold.
Enjoy.

Bonjour Bulent,
ca, c'est le genre de ciel qui me plait vraiment beaucoup. Contrasté, vigoureux et musclé.
Il menace tout ce qui est en dessous et cela se ressent bien.
Un tout petit manque de définition, sinon, de magnifiques couleurs et lumières et un cadrage bien étudié.
Have a great we.
Daniel.

Hi Bulent,
Beautiful photo of Trogir. Nice view of the city walls, church tower and marina. There are also people here. I like the colours of water, it is amazing! Nice narrow frame.
Croatia has so many beautiful and interesting towns. I visited almost all the coast from Kotor to the Italian border in 1968. I liked Dubrovnik, Split, Trogir ... very much. I was very sad that so much was destroyed during the war. It was something I could not understand.
Warm regards, have a nice weekend

Merhaba Bulent Bey. Nice to see a photo from Croatia. There are so few on this site. It seems that the Croatian TE contingent is most inactive or uninspired by their beautiful country. It ends up being the tourist's task to reveal the history and charms of this part of the world.As usual, the note accompanying the photo is most erudite. Great shot too, showing the setting and the architectural details of Trogir. The Marco Polo connection does not surprise me as the Dalmatians were and still are great seafarers and travelers. There is even a Dalmatian settlement in Patagonia! It seems that inhabitants from one of the Dalmatian islands emigrated en masse.As for me, I am a poor representative of these people, as I tend to get seasick. Selamlar. Klaudio.

Warm greetings, Bulent,
this one is a beauty. I love the way the spire catches the light against that unbelievable sky. That's a very nice diagonal line of red roofs and boats leading the eye to the top of the mountain with clouds resting on it. Lovely light and color and sharp detail. What a pretty shot! Many thanks and wishes for a good weekend,
Shelly
I meant also to mention how nicely you had framed this shot with such well matched colors. It's very nice!

Nice composition of the boats (which are intersting in themselves) and the old wall of thislittle fortified harbour. The two towers emerging in the bacground are good to enhance the height of the wall, and the sky, although cloudy, still as a little blue opening.
Perhaps I am wrong here, but I have an impression of softness in the image here and the sharpness could have been better. But again, this is perhaps just an impression.
All the best,

Hello dear Bulent,
I see here no photograph but a wonderful painting.
All ingredient are present for high quality painting, you use a carper format for this excellent image, this gives here a extra composition.
Colours of the boats, the houses and splendid cloudy sky care for a wonderful presentation.
Very well done, thanks for sharing.
Have a nice weekend together with your family,

Hello dear Bulent,
one of the strong points of this fabulous image is the juxtaposition of the ancient buildings against this wonderful marina, the other are the fantastic light and amazing contrast between all the colors and the sky. The clarity is good and the depth is also very nice. I'm very fascinated to see this nice marina with its moored boats giving a good resistance of colors with the blue one of the sea. Outstanding image and note.
With my warmest regards.

A fine composition of this old harbour with its many boats. I like the framing and point of view, with the hilltop that seems to echo the church tower and gives the composition great balance. Excellent colours and clarity. Very interesting commentary.

hello Bulent,
I quite like the strong contrasts in this photo, I find that illustrates very well the bright light of the summer sun without the burned out highlights. as others have noted, the smart use of thirds creates a very pleasing composition, I like a lot how the steel blue water and white puffy clouds frame the red roofs. very well seen and presented, my compliments.

i like this city portrait of the ancient trogir. the dramatic sky is quit symbolic of its troubled past. very interesting your note. i find it curious that this and similar history accounts of many meditarranean towns and cities usually does not deal with what happened to its historical inhabitants. take this town as example: its populus must have switched from supposedly illirans to greeks to romans (with their cosmopolitan mix of slaves and owners) to slavs to italians (venitians), austrians and back to slavs again... fascinating.

Merhaba Bulent Bey,
You`ve posted one of my favourite sites on the world, the Dalmatia coasts. I added it to my favourite photos.
I had the chance to travel all across this coast twice. I had the chance to visit the Marco Polo`s birthplace home which is currently serving as a museum on the Korcula Island. It was very obvious that Marco Polo was going to be a traveler and sailor, that the house has an amazing view of the Adriatic Sea for a child`s imagination. All the other islands are amazing on that route too and there are fantastic ferry tours mong the islands.
You`ve captured the arthitecture very succesfully too. These Mediterranian style roofs with red bricks are my favourite and the deep blue sea is one of the clearest on the world I think.
Your note is very nice detailed and reminded me my amazing adventures on this coast.
selamlar ve sevgiler

Very nice site, and those old crenelated walls are a nice background to the sail ships.
The image does seem a bit too dark though, there's a bit of an artificial look through it, perhaps over sharpening, or a polarized filter...
Very nice colors though, full of contrast.

I have very fond memories of the Dalmatian coast, in fact the whole of Croatia and the Balkans. It is in my opinion some of the best coastal scenery in Europe, if not the world.
Once again a fantastic note to accompany the image. Perfect orange rooftops which is how I remember it to be and the clouds are simply perfect. Boats are composed well, great image all round.

Hello Bulent,
This is a picture which really makes me think that it is high time to visit this region of the world, but I could not draw
a plan to go there until now. I like the three colors, the roofs, the blue sky and the white puffy clouds, they match so well. Your angle seems also to be a very good one, taken from a boat, and if you were there in Trogir I think that you must have done a boat trip of the Dalmatian Coast.
I wish you a very good Sunday - Izzet
