They were just there. A couple looking the lake of Agios Nikolaos in Crete. Nothing special, nothing important. A common scene.
But the light, this splendid magic afternoon gold light of the sun made everything appear gorgeous and her to look like goddess.
I tried to catch this magic moment making a photo giving the weight to the golden sheen of the hairs from the girl.

Γειάσου Κώστα, πολύ δύσκολος ο φωτισμός εδώ, αλλά σαν σύνθεση, ακόμα και σαν φωτισμός μεταδίδει την ατμόσφαιρα της στιγμής πολύ καλά.
Καλώς ξανάρθες.-¨)
Χαιρετώ

Hello dear Kostas,

This is a fabulous shot in everyway, from the composition to the perspective, from the light and shadows, from the colors to the definition. The backlit image (note the shadow of the lamp post) is far more effective and artistic here than if there had been direct sunlight on the couple. I am glad to see a new post from you. The frame also is very effective.
Warm regards,
Bulent

Hi kostas,

i agree with batalay, a very fine shot. You've seen the magical light very well, and captured in ditto way. Indeed the appearance of the hair of this woman is lovely..the light around the people..it's just fine. Good sharpness and details, exposure nicely done. The long shadow of the lantarn fits well. Great time of the day to shoot such photo's! The depth due to the fence works well.

Very good job.

Αν και με την πρώτη ματιά δεν δείχνει κάτι το σημαντικό, θα έλεγα ότι είναι υπο-εκτεθιμένη τόσο ώστε να θάβεται το θέμα, ωστόσο όταν την παρατήρησα λίγο παραπάνω μου αρέσει κι εμένα το πιάσιμο της στιγμής. Μου αρέσει επίσηςη που η σκιά κρύβει τα πρόσωπα των πρωταγωνιστών σου. Εξαιρετικό το φως πράγματι.

amazing golden light indeed kosta... this is a very well composed and well balanced image i think... i like the lamp post and its shadow, also the shinny hair of the lady...

aal the best...

Hello Kostas,
a nice study in perspective as well as composition. The clarity and the muted golden colours, the warm reflection on the ground, and the lamp post gliding through this peacefullness, enhance the photograph even more. Pretty awesome.
Kind Regards.
Stella

Γεια σου Κώστα!

Καιρό είχαμε να δούμε κάτι από εσένα! Μη χάνεσαι βρε παιδί μου!
Πολύ ωραία η ατμόσφαιρα στη φωτογραφία σου και λόγω θέματος, αλλά κυρίως λόγω εξαιρετικού κόντρα φωτισμού. Πολύ ωραία και η σύνθεση. Συγχαρητήρια!

Κώστα καλησπέρα,
αποτύπωσες μιά καλή στιγμή σε ένα ειδιλλιακό περιβάλλον του νεαρού αυτού ζευγαριού.Το φως που αποτύπωσες είναι καλό και πιθανόν να συμβαδίζει εαν το ζευγαράκι είναι παράνομο.Η μπάρα προσδίδει ένα καλό βάθος στο σκηνικό σου.Εξαιρετική.
Σε χαιρετώ,Δάνος

Ela Kosta mou,
Light is yours, joy is ours here...
Perfect warm touch on the silhouetted figures and the shadow of the lamp is the cherry on the pie. Every corner of the photo has evidences of carefully planned and realized composition. Squrae shape and dark frame i like a lot also.
Cheers, take care in those hot days :)

Magic light for sure :))
That little fragment of pavement splashed with the light and the rich in colours background... It's hard not to stop and look at this photo with open mouth :)). There is a feeling of calmness and tranquillity in the scene which I do like extremely.
Great work.
Greetings T.
