Hi Ioannis.
Yes, more colour and light. And I like it.
That field plenty of olive trees (also you can see that in Spain... is typical from the Mediterraneam) is very nice. And your composition is good, with good colour and light and also with a nice sky.
Good job. Regards.

Hi John. I like your low-shooting angle that includes those bushes in the foreground. This is a tad different for you but I really like it. The sharpness is perfect. Good work John!

Hola Ioannis.
Very good picture, good lighting and colors.
The sharpness is very good. the olive trees are very well captured. I didn't know that the tree last for about 250 years.
Well done. TFS.

Hello Ioannis,

it seems to me a very dry region there... It must have been difficult to find more colours...

regards,

Luc.

I love the way the horizon sweeps down from the mountain to give this curve, and the way you have given equal weight to the sky and the land. Good low POV; very well done

Α βλέπω ότι ήσουν στα μέρη μου (ή κοντά μου τουλάχιστον).

Πραγματικά όμορφος ο ελαιώνας γεμάτος χρώματα και φως του καλοκαιριού.

Hi John!
You show us a nicely composed landscape from your country. The olive trees look great, sky too. Light was strong but final effect is fine. I like it.
Regards.

Nice landscape John, I like the way you have crop the hill on the left, with enough space for this huge sky and field, well seen.

Serwus Ioannis !
Lovely Greek landscape, without the sea but still wonderful. Fine divided frame and a slope going from the left. Nice Work.
Be well,
Mat

Ioannis, this picture immediately caught my eye for the glorious sweep of the hillside down to the village at the bottom. The curve has a very harmonious feel to it. The golden land and green trees make for a warm image and the distant red roofs add just a few attractive spots of bright colour.

Hi John, A nice open view to the hilly hills. I like the composition with the hill cut through the picture with the view of different steeps of the slope. Nice contrast and beautiful color.

john_c (24635) 2005-10-11 22:16

Hi John,
A well composed shot which well captured the slope of the land and the interesting trees. The brown and green hues blend well together and the sky is superb. Its intriguing to see the little houses and buildings spread here and there. An interesting spot which beckons one to walk and enjoy. Well seen and captured.
John

Hi Ioannis,
Beautiful weather and your exposure control is perfect looking at the beautiful rendering of the leaves and trees. I love this natural colours as it is most pleasing to the eyes. I just wondered if you noticed the cloud on the left. It seems to collide with the mountain and there is some pushing and shoving around.Well done!! Regards.

Hi Ioannis,
Nice landscape and colours, but maybe i think you have too cropped the bottom of your shot.

Bonjour John
L'huile d'olive Grecque est une des meilleure du monde.
L'aspect de ce paysage est magnifique.
J'apprécie la bonne saturation des couleurs.
Il serait intéressant de photographier aussi avec une lumière latérale à un autre moment de la journée.

Hello John the Greek olive oil is one of best in the world. The aspect of this landscape is splendid. I appreciate the good saturation of the colors. It would be interesting to also photograph with a side light at another time of the day.
I like to photograph the same place at different hours.

Gix (3559) 2005-10-13 9:57

Hi Ioannis,

Absolutely quiet view under the sun, i like the atmosphere, the photo is taken in september but for me the summer is stille in this place!
Thanks, very nice & pleasable view!
ciao, Giorgio

Hi John,
Only in this year I knew a olive tree, in Mallorca. Great landscape, I like these nice colors and the good perspective. Well done.
