Buna Cristian

Frumoasa scena,e clar ca e vorba de dragoste...sa te trezesti de dimineata,devreme...sa privesti rasaritul de soare...ce poate fi mai frumos?.Nu singur...bine-nteles ;-).
Buna incadrarea si felul cum ai compus-o.

Numai bine,
Lucian

Hi Cristian,
The song perfectly fits this nice and peaceful photo. A great dedication to love and peaceful harmony.
I like your composition with these young lovers who seem to be completely insensitive to anthing but the moment they live together.
The sun on the left is too hard, but the scale is an important element of your composition and it gives a good balance to it, so you could not avoid it.
Very well done.
Regards,
Marianne

Hi Cristian - I like this compo, in excellent luminosity and sharpness, an effective POV to get this wooden floor in fg attractively coming into the sea area... and the intriguing and somewhat mysterious top of the steps on left, also giving nice long shadows... regards, Daniel

A simple but beautiful shot, Cristian. It's not often one can get a strongly graphic image featuring a young couple together, so you took full advantage of your opportunity! I like the fact that the shadow crosses the boards at a perpendicular angle. Your high POV let you put the horizon high in the frame, emphasizing the vastness of the sea, which works very well. Regards, Ken.

Hi Cristian,
The saying, "less is more" really applies to this image.
The simplicity of the pose, the people, the endless ocean and sky and the low light say so much.
Very romantic shot.
Cheers
Peter

Hi Cristian.
Minimalistic but superb. I love that huge expanse of flat water, with not a boat or distant island in sight. You captured the slight swell in the water so well. The couple are nicely placed in the composition - I think you chose a very effective viewpoint, allowing the shadows of the step rails to fall diagonally, perpendicular to the boards. There is a simple beauty in this very sharp and beautifully lit photograph. Magnificent.
Regards,
Andrew

foarte misto ... vezi ca tot te trezesti dimineata! ;o)
atata liniste si totusi atatea lucruri se intampla ... minunata 'gama' minimalista de culori si forme, aerul racoros/caldut de dimineata, dragostea, miresmele marii si sunetele in surdina, tandretea, luminile/umbrele, regula treimii ;o) - mi-ar place sa fiu si eu acolo intr-o dimineata ... foarte, foarte misto - imi place mult!

hi cristian...
not bad, not bad at all - there is a nice mood in this romantic photo... light, composition, tranquility and that piece of white "carpet" on the pier - all these things are very important here...

Superb composition to make wide stretch felt, the handrails are expertly placed at good position.
Light is also so beautiful. It's a bit of a pity for such a good image there are some bandings in the sky. Still definitely a successful shot.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Hi Cristian,

the emptynesss behind them fits perfectly to the scene. They feel: only the two of us are important...

Cette photo est bien cadrée, une belle lumière venant de gauche avec des ombres intéressantes.
J'aime bien la sensation de l'infini qui s'y dégage.
Bonne soirée

You got the perfect moment for this shot: the girl laying the head over man's shoulder is the perfect centrepoint of this well balanced composition

Hello Cristian,

Nice compo with the diagonal lines of the woodwork, the isolated couple in the composition and the horizon further away. A bit of a pity of the over-exposed sky to the left, but still very nice!

Greetings,
Dennis

Hi Cristian,

so simple in a way, so romantic but there is a touch of glamour here, in the perfect view and setting, the beautiful blue of the sky and sea, very delicate tones with that strong yet soft light, unique, that you find in the northern places, the light I prefer of all... It has a kind of cinematographic feeling and a wonderful feeling of space. Makes me want to fly or jump in that fresh water. Love it.

Kind regards
Michèle
