Hi Mohammad,
beautiful composition with those sparse but varied elements in beautiful light.
Regards, Gerrit

A very nice composition here, Mohammad, with a nice balance of dark and light. The orange-yellow-black color scheme works well. It's not one of your best, perhaps, because it was taken in full darkness; I think late twilight would have been preferable, so not all light was artificial. It's certainly very observant of you to put such a shot together, though. Regards, Ken.

Hi Mohammad,

Great composition, very well balanced. I like the good contrast of the orange tones against the dark of the night. The nice birds and the big reflections created a poetic atmosphere.

Have a nice week

Hi Mohammad

Hello Mohammad,

Indeed a symphony in the night, excellent choice from this title.
Very lovely night picture with the wonderful reflections in water, but the seagulls are real eye catchers, very well done.

Have a nice day,
John.

Hi Mohammad

This is a well shot night picture. The reflections in the water are nice and complement the orange of the pier(?) The exposure is also good as the subject has been properly exposed and the lights in the far distance also look great. Good composition sticking to the basics. Its interesting to see how the birds are perfectly aligned. I am wondering though if you would have got nice colors in the sky had you shot slightly earlier?

Cheers
Vivek

Excellent composition with the huge docking place for the sea gulls on the left and the distance light on the right. The overall orange colour is perfect.

Hello Mohammad,

Very nice nightshot. I like how you captured these seagulls in a row! :) Lovely warm colors.

This pier has certainly been built especialy for gulls !
Th picture is interesting, and well built... Elements are distinct and textured by light.
A good mood too.
I like it

Hi Mohammad,
Wow, what stunning colors and exceptional attention to details in this night shot. The reflections to the right are a very nice offset to the bold pillar and birds on the left. A very good composition indeed and TFS. Gerald

Hi Mohammad

It's good to have one seagull breaking the repetitive pattern. Wonderful reflections of the night lights in the water, with good colour & sharpness. Tfs!

Hello Mohammad,
Just superb the use of light and the illumination on the foreground. The sense of depth and the balance of the composition is supğerb.
I wish you a great weekend. Best personal regards. Salvator.

Hi Mohammad!

Wow! The miracle of the light! It's quite impressive how a little bit of light, so concentred in a point is able to create an image so suggestive and poetry! You manage very well the composition, and the expressivity of each element in the frame! Congratulations!

Greetings,
Angel.

Hi Mohammad, the image has so much rhythm that if I were a musician I would write a jazz piece based on it. Excellent capture.
TFS,
Enrique

Hello Mohammad,
