Merhaba my friend Ertugrul,
Beautiful scene, the light of the dawn and the soft tones create an almost mystical environment.
I like the sky and the sea that they seem of silver, and the silhouettes of the boys bathing, It is a well looked photo, undoubtedly to get up very early it has allowed you to obtain a beautiful composition.
Nice work.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Ertugrul,
j'aime beaucoup cette photo qui donne une impression d'espace avec la grande étendue d'eau dorée sous un ciel éclairé par le soleil levant. Les personnages contribuent à la beauté de l'ensemble.

Dear friend, Ertugrul,

thanks for visiting my "Kalemegdan". I am happy to meet your gallery again. You merit it, but you know that TE is larger and lager. Here we have the wonderful evening on the coast; Suriname between two sunny days. It's nice to be in Suriname, even by photos. Many thanks and best wishes for you and yours,

Branko

Beautiful morning light is seen across the muddy delta. The customary bathers add very nice scale to this wonderfully soothing peaceful morning image.

merhaba etrugrul

wondefully smooth ambience. like cream and butter... looking at the picture i almost feel like i should be able to hear the splash as this kid jumps into the water. however, i feel, this photo needs to be much bigger (at least poster size) to be really appreciated for its beauty. 800 pix just does not give it its due...

regards,
kristaps

Hi Ertugrul,

what a graceful sunrise shot. I like to see the silhouettes of the kids on this beautiful view. Very good quality and excellent compo. Well done!

Very successful, well composed, sunset image.
I think it would make sense to crop few pixels from the left to get rid of that tree branch on the top.

Hi Ertgrul,
a different and peculiar photography, since in TE we can enjoy many sunsets but this is special, and has a differentiating affluent element. A sample of other cultures excellent.
The photography has excellent tonalities and an atmosphere of fabulous mystery and espectación.

Hey Ertugrul,

A beautiful and meaningful shot. The little ones on the beach are the perfect "detail" (although I know they are not exactly that), - a beautiful sunset colors in the background, nice clarity. Fine work as always.

See you around.

Beautiful image, Ertugrul. You captured its vast stillness so well. The boys give a sense of scale, and the sunset provides wonderful soft light and reflection. Well done.

Hello Ertugrul.

Well done.
Best regards.
