Sunset in IZMIR Photo

Photographer’s Note

Sunset in Izmir, near Republic Square. This silhouette is from Pasaport Pier, in the Sea Aegean.

Known in Turkish as "Beautiful Izmir" the city lies at the head of a long and narrow gulf furrowed by ships and yachts. The climate is mild and in the summer the constant and refreshing sea breezes temper the sun's heat. Behind the palm-lined promenades and avenues which follow the shoreline, the city, in horizontal terraces, gently ascends the slopes of the surrounding mountains. Izmir is the third largest city in Turkey and its port is second only to Istanbul. A cosmopolitan and lively city all year round, Izmir bursts with an added vibrancy during the international Arts Festival (June/July) and the International Fair (August/September).

Olá Aires,
Excelente perspectiva e uma igualmente excelente captura deste lindissimo fim de dia. Bom enquadramento e obtendo aqui um extraordinária luminosidade que se espelha na água. Gosto das silhuetas criadas bem como a esbatida panoramica em pano de fundo. A gaivota voando é também uma grande adição a esta muito boa composição. Parabéns e obrigado por colocar uma minha foto nas suas favoritas.

Um abraço amigo.
Fernando

All the best

Hi Aires.

Great colours & definition. In my opinion only needs a ship in the picture to be really great.

Hello,
J'aime bien ces silhouettes qui se découpent sur cette mer bien tranquille.
Les couleurs et le cadrage sont biens.

Hej Aires,
The inclusion of the quite big part of the sea works very well here. The sunset looks wonderful in combination with the small clouds in the sky. Good work!
Hilsner,

Hello Aires, thanks to your photos I feel very familiar with Izmir. I like very much this composition. The colors are very intense and there is a fantastic luminosity. I notice the sun silhouette is kind of square. Isn’t it? I find that very peculiar. Thanks for sharing. Kind regards, Gabriel

Olá Aires
Gosto desta imagem...as cores estão muito bem captadas...e o reflexo do sol na água está perfeito.
Gosto da sensação de teranquilidade que a imagem transmite.
cumprimentos
Teresa
