starting point Photo

Photographer’s Note

starting point to hearts of men

the sky is a sacred place
where the mind of god
rests upon that of humanity

it is the place where
good poems are created
line by line, verse by verse

a storm never brews here
because of the sky
but the clouds, winds and sun

to know the workings
of the clouds, winds and sun
is to know the sky of intelligence

the place where every verse
is strewn to the steps of nature,
written to the laws of reason
and the desires of hearts

the sky is a sacred place
the meeting point of god
and humanity
the starting point to the hearts
of men ...

John Tion Chunghoo
( A Malaysian Poet)

Γεια σου Νικηφόρε,
it's very special situation, what an amazing time and place you was there and you captured this time in a great way, wonderful, well detailed, light is excellent, with great depth, very well composed. It is an excellent idea to add the silhouette of this church in foreground, it creates a more powerful composition.
Kind Regards.
Stella

Καλημέρα Νικηφόρε, αυτή η εξαιρετική εικόνα μαζί με αυτό το ποίημα είναι ένας κάτι σαν απίθανος συνδυασμός και μαζί υπέροχος.
Η εικόνα του καμπαναριού πολύ καλά τοποθετημένο με αυτόν τον φανταστικό και ονειρεμένο ουρανό είναι πράγματι υπέροχη.
Ερρώσω φίλε.
Ευάγγελος.

Hola mi amigo Nikiforos,
This sky seems to burn, has a few tones orange warm and beautiful, and the belfry in a great perspective is outlined finely in your setting.
I like the clouds that look like brushstrokes on the tapestry of the sky, and the light that you have obtained, with good exposure and a very effective color.
Beautiful poem to accompany the photo.
Una abraçada, amic,
Josep

Μόνο στέκω και το κοιτώ με μάτια ονειροπόλα!!!!

Αν και πάσχει ελαφρά από sharpness, εντούτοις έχεις καταγράψει μια μαγική ώρα φίλε Νικηφόρε. Επαινώ κι εγώ με την σειρά μου.
