Great colors & saturation befitting our notion of the medieval past. Might be good in black & white too. I like her costume. Regards. Latiff.

Hello Dimitris,

Spectacular exercise in time travel — well done! there is a surrealistic atmosphere in this image with the rich sepia tones in the background to the woman beautifully position in the photograph, presenting complementary colors. She is detached from the photographer, in her own world. A very very good image.

Warm regards from Virginia, USA.

Bonjour, cher Dimitris,
Bravo ! Dimitris pour avoir saisir au bon moment ce musicien d'un autre temps. Le personnage est parfait dans ce décor médiéval. Les couleurs sont parfaites pour donner à l'ensemble un effet passéiste du meilleur effet.
Amitiés.

The faded brownish color and the musician floor length hemline dress really bring the viewers to the medieval world. A trip to the past indeed, very nice.

Γεια σου Δημήτρη
Σαν να ξεπηδά από παραμύθια μεσαιωνικής εποχής, τόσο η φιγούρα του μουσικού αλλά και το φόντο και οι αποχρώσεις του όλου θέματός σου. Εξαιρετικό το φως αλλά και η αίσθηση του βάθους με το τούνελ που μας ταξιδεύει ποιος ξέρει για που.
Ευχαριστούμε για την παρουσίαση.
Χρήστος

Hi Dimitris,
Very lovely scene coming from past, captured by your camera.
Lady in ancient clothes in front of the tunnel is so beautiful.
Sepia tones very well fit with this atmosphere.
I also would like to interprete tunnel as a "time tunnel" where the other end belongs to our time and lady passed there found herself in this medieval atmosphere...
Very well seen, wonderful shot...
