Photographer’s Note
"...let us be happy, let us be kind, generous, affectionate and good.
... it is necessary, and not in the least shameful, to take pleasures in the little world, good food, gentle smiles, fruit-trees in bloom and waltzes".
("Fanny & Alexander")

Hi my dear friend!
Yet another familiar place but you can always capture something new and unusual!
The sky is just terrific....Looks like raspberry parfait :) But I know the air is chilling....Fantastic picture -simple but so very special! Walking men and a hugging couple just make the feeling of "I've just been there" even stronger..
This is it - the city I love :)
Hugs,
Marina

A charming evening atmosphere for your (and mine) beloved Stockholm. The pink clouds and sky are an ideal background (or stage) for the young couple in love at the right and for the old ship at the left. Great perspective and realism.
A fine moment in the life of a city.
Best regards,
Donato

Hello Elena,
The exposure is successful, like the framing and the depth of the image. It is an alive and clear image. I appreciate the sight of this fair tempting young woman, but also already allured, which damage:) Congratulations.
Have a nice day.
Cordially.

You have managed to capture a very pleasant and romantic atmosphere, that certainly seems to have inspired the couple to the right. Beautiful light on the clouds.
Actually, I think this is Strandvägen ;-)

Hi Elena. VEry nice mood here; end of the lighting and colors very beautiful. People walking and kissing by the river confirm that wonderful mood and your note is very appropriate. The lines on the floor create a good sense of depth. Very nice work. Best regards. Paulo

dear Elena,
this tender and cheerful atmosphere is excellent.
the tone of colors is very soft and mild, it fits well the view at that time,
and the combination of the ship, the poles, the car, and people walking and hug are nice to express the settled ambience.
not bright, not dark, but just moderate light shows us beautiful sky and peaceful earth,
thank you,
Akihisa
