Photographer’s Note
It was my birthday , i asked my boss to take two days rest from the work, then i decided to go to Tallin, i like the history and the old cities ( maybe cause i'am from Egypt one of the oldest countries in the world ).
Anyway , when i went to my favorite place ( the old Tallin ) There were some young people who is singing and dancing while they say Hare Krishna ,it's kind of believes or religion, and here the informations what i could got from the Internet *
"Harry Krishna
" is a common misspelling of Hare Krishna, based on the fact that the words Hare and Harry look and sound similar. (Harry Krishna is also a name that has been jokingly or half jokingly adopted by people interested in the Hare Krishna movement.)
Hare Krishna actually refers to a Hindu mantra (religious chant) derived from names or attributes of the Hindu god Vishnu. Its source is the ancient Hindu sacred text the Baghavad-Gita, but to most Westerners the words "hare Krishna" first became known when a number of famous people (especially the Beatles
in the 1960s) became interested in this branch of Hindu philosophy through the growth of the International Society For Krishna Consciousness.

Hi Maged,
I doubt it is a typical scene from Tallin but thanks to those people you made it more alive and interesting.
The architecture is fantastic. You have nice colors, sharpness and depth of field,

Hello Maged,
A surprising and amusing composition. The Hare Krishna-peoples' clothes match the colours of the buildings very well and they form a nice diagonal acoss the picture. The light is very well handled in spite of the rather strong contrasts.
Regards,
Gert
