At life’s sunset, a photo from Viotia, Central Greece

Photographer's Note

Pollution Flows in Asopos River.
Modern human activity creates problems. Wonderful nature suffers today! I am so unhappy to say that! The land of our fathers needs therapy. Our life must be changed, are we ready to proceed?
Here you see the bright side· this beautiful stone bridge is tottery, though!

Γεια σου Θανάση,
Εξαιρετική σύνθεση με το πέτρινο γεφύρι και με τις αντανακλάσεις, υπέροχος φωτισμός, πολύ όμορφοι χρωματικοί τόνοι.
Σε χαιρετώ, Βασίλη

Γεια σου Αθάνασιε!

Κρίμα που ένα τόσο ωραίο θέαμα και αγαπημένο θέμα, να συνδέεται με ένα τόσο δυσάρεστο ζήτημα, το οποίο πολύ καλά κάνεις εσύ κι αναδεικνύεις! δυστυχώς εμείς οι ανθρωποί νόμιζουμε ότι ήμαστε το κέντρο του σύμπαντος και δεν βλέπουμε ότι δηλητηριάζοντας τη φύση, στην πράξη αυτοκτονούμε!

Σε χαιρετώ,
Ηρακλης

Olá Athanasios, marvellous light and reflection. The arch of the bridge resulted in an irresistable round window. Beautiful nature pic, wonderful mood.

Geia sou Athanasi,
It is a beautiful image for a horrible story.
I like the way that you chose to evoke this Asopos river's pollution with this very old bridge which saw so many things, but this one is maybe the worst of all.
The contrasts are strong, the play of lines and colors is wonderful.
Great photo... Sygxaritiria

Hi Athanasios!
The same problem almost everywhere, unfortunately!
The photo is very nice, the colours, the light, the pov, the reflection on the river.

Hello Athanasios,

The light is magic and gives a lot to the composition. The bridge and the foreground have enough details despite the shadow.

Well done,

Alexandre

Bonsoir Athanasios,
Ce vieux pont de pierre est bien mis en valeur par la lumière tamisée de la fin de journée. Le reflet orangé est splendide.

Hello Athanasios
Hope you're doing good my friend!
A title to this picture filled with pathos! Light si great & I like how you composed this with the arch in reflection, reflecting the pastel hues of the setting sun!
Best Regards
Angshu

Hi Athan,
thank You for comments on my photography.
Beautiful capture, impressive reflections, simple, but attractive composition. Arch with its reflection makes it the main object together with sunset colors and surrounding rocks.
Nice job!

Hello Athanasios,

An exceptional light which brings all the atmosphere and much of mystery to this stone and water landscape. The pure reflection and of a good clearness is pleasant. A beautiful photographic eye, resting image, thank you Athanasios.

With all my friendships and a very good evening,

Jean-Charles

Bonjour Athanasios,
On ne peut que déplorer la perte d'une si belle architecture. Cette photo est très belle avec ce pont et son reflet dans la lumière du soir.
Amicalement
Jacques
