The Final Encore Photo

Photographer’s Note

After words
and long goodbyes..
Tears and lies
at the end of the day.

An early night
and madness rains...
The moon pulls your dreams
and the pressur fades

And now
the final encore,
a last farewell.
The fantasy is over,
the spirit flies away...

Hi Mohammad,
Very nice picture, the waves on the sand are marvellous. I like the lonely plant that tries to resist to the sand. Its shadow on the sand is great.
Cheers,
Delphine

Hi Mohammmad.
Simple mais beau.
Superbe cette herbe qui pousse au milieu de nul part, c'est poétique je trouve.
La texture du sable ressort superbement bien et le jeu d'ombre et de lumière est magnifique.
Bien fait
Fred

Dear Mohammad ,
So delicate and sharp yet soft in every detail.I must admit the POV makes an artist and you are someone with a great vision and a great eye for beauty.THANK YOU.

Hi Mahammad,

Great !

ChristianS (2997) 2006-05-06 15:21

Hi Mohammad,
Superb light bringing out the texture and the patterns on the sand. The shadow of the grass is a nice detail that breaks with the uniformity of the composition. The warm colours are very nice. Well done!

Regards, Christian

muratd (4277) 2006-05-06 15:25

Hello Muhammed. This is very good and pover feeling image. Thak you for sharing us.

danby1 (3689) 2006-05-06 16:47

the simplicity of this shot makes it great, its different from many on this site and that is what attracted me, good shot good composition and the grass is in the right spot of the picture for me! well done

Janice (4386) 2006-05-06 17:02

Shadows and more shadows, waves upon waves. Just beautiful Mohammad. But the new life growing so green and upright - wonderful.
Thank yoou, thank you,
Janice

Mohammad, these small grasses, do they live for long, or just die off after a while? Or do they multiply much and take over the sand?

imrek (4) 2006-05-06 21:18

Hi Mohammad,

Hi Mohammad,
beautiful lines and colours and the abstract world is broken by the simple reality of new life bursting out of the ground.
Good symbolism.
THanks and regards, Gerrit

ChrisJ (70443) 2006-05-07 4:42

Hi Mohammad

I like the solitary plant, breaking the pattern & texture of the rippled sand. Superb framing & color. Tfs!

Didi (36516) 2006-05-07 4:55

Salam Mohammad
Very according with your new introducing.
Very nice picture symbol of hope and life.
The incidental light gives a wonderfull composition.
Cheers.

fijiphil (1345) 2006-05-07 7:39

This is sublime. The positioning of the plant, and the way its shadow gives us so much information about the sun which we can't see, is perfect.

ciec (1081) 2006-05-07 8:17

Hallo Mohammad,
Excellent shot.
As we know, 'less is more' !
Fantastic light too.

daglar (54) 2006-05-07 8:21

سلام محمد
ازعکست خیلی خوشم آمد

Hi Mohammad,
beautiful composition and colours. Good idea on shot and captured a place. I like it a lot.
Rgs, Aleksander

john_c (24635) 2006-05-07 11:34

Hi Mohammad,
Amazing textures and subtle hues here. One wishes to reach out and grasp the sand and soil with the hand, to feel the warmth and the grit. The lighting is superb and the solitary plant growing in the barrenness gives hope and light and speaks of renewal, of life itself. I like this shot very much.
John

babri (422) 2006-05-07 12:23

Salaam Mohammad,
A lonely plant resists against waves of sands and showing his power, or maybe dancing. I can see the border between light and shade on sands. I like also shades of every wave of sands constituting dark and bright parallel strips. Nice pattern!
Tfs. Best, Reza

erdo (568) 2006-05-07 15:24

hello muhammet,
the textute, the shadows, the colors and ofcourse the main object. every thing is just enough, nothing is pushing.
thank you for poem as well.
regards,
erdogan

bantonbuju (48796) 2006-05-07 16:05

leiju (1683) 2006-05-07 17:25

A perfect shot of a perfect world.
Simply majestic.

danielswalsh (13330) 2006-05-07 20:20

Hello Mohammad, seems like forever since I was last visited your portfolio.

Excellent composition- very simple yet effective. Good exposure- no detail lost to over/under exposure.

Well done,
- Dan

lucinka (9920) 2006-05-08 4:02

Mohammad, I am so happy to see so many great photos from our trip!! This one has beautiful horizontal lines with fantastic sand texture. That small piece of grass with beautiful long shadow adds something very special and nicely finish simple and very effective composition. Well done. Lucie

Well I don't think I'll ever tire of this dune series. Again, a fine minimalist compo, but it's all been said.

Hi M,
Another great shot, as usual. This shade is wonderful as these lines made with the sand, well done.

Greetings

avigur_11 (21307) 2006-05-24 17:25

How did I miss this one, dear M?
It reminds me the "lowest plant on earth (see my intro page left thumbnail) - only that the background is totaly differnt.
Amazing sharp image, very graphic and very well captured.
RGRDS,
Y.

Yffic (6106) 2006-06-02 4:15

Hello Muhammad,

It's a very graphical picture with a poetical note.
The waves of sand are sublime !!

Regards.

Jeppe (18623) 2006-06-04 18:57

Hi Mohammad
I missed this very lovely for too long - the fine surface of the sand great to watch - the shadow the little plant gives a truly wonderful effect - my compliment
Best wishes

Hanssie (9133) 2006-06-27 5:22

Art, great art, a beautiful picture to hang in a living room. Textures are beautiful and also the composition plus shadow of the lonely plant, greta art, as said !

Mojgan (44) 2006-08-22 5:56

What a lovely picture! That tiny plant can be considered as a symbol of hope. It's contrast to the huge background gives the viewers a sense of wonder, admiration and finally hope in future! Well done!

I've seen this for Times and times . A great eye to capture it . A new vision with vivid colors and subject.Shadows plays a great role in this one.
