Lover's sunset Photo

Photographer’s Note

Zadar is a charming Mediterranean city. In my opinion it is the most beautiful city on the coast of the Adriatic Sea; I find it even more beautiful than Dubrovnik.

Its charm, beauty and kindness of the people will make you fall in love with the city and you will never want to leave it.

The two things that make this city so unique and special are the SUNSET and the SEA ORGANS. They are recently built in the shape of a simple stairways leading into the sea. Underneath they hide a mechanism similar to church organs but instead of a human organ player who plays by notes, here the sound is being produced by the natural movement of the sea. Organs are made by 35 tubes with holes beneath sea level. Water is enterning and pressing air into the tubes creating amazing sounds. Sounds that can never be repeated again.

Locals say that if you listen to the sea organs and watch their famous SUNSET (Zadar is known to have one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world)with the person you love, you WILL STAY IN LOVE FOREVER! I need to try that.

Ciao Stasa. Piacere di fare la tua conoscenza. Un sole con la parrucca bionda non l'avevo mai visto. Grande realizzazione. Colori e riflessi divini e poi la quasi impercettibile presenza della barca sulla destra.

Hi Stasa,
Lovely vertical presentation of this brilliant sunset with the yellow and golden tones reflecting sharply in the riffinling Ariatic.
Love the silhouetted fishermen.
Regards, Tom
