Photographer’s Note

A moment of peace and tranquility shared with a local fisherman as our walk along the beach to the Old Town of Side came to an end.

Hi David,

This is indeed a nice picture, good composition and colours. Nevertheless, there is something that I don't like: You probably used some post processing to sharpen the image, and the final image got boosted colours and shades around the edges. The fisherman got some light glow around the shape, I guess it's due to post processing, unless I'm wrong. Let me know!

Hi David, there is something very peaceful about seeing a silhouette of a fisherman in front of a sunset. Both on their own work quite well but when you put the two together it's utter tranquility. Great colour and very excellent mood created in this shot of yours.

Thanks, John

Wow, David,
this is a beautiful photo. The light and contrast is perfect and I love those warm evening tones. It's beautiful how you balanced the fisherman in one corner and the sun in the opposite. Wonderful balance. Beautiful reflections, soft, easy mood... This really is a lovely shot. Many thanks and best wishes,
Shelly
