Other shot, which was taken during our trip to Anna Bay. I hope you guys will be allright, that I have added our shadows, just to increase the atmosphere of that place at sunset.. :o)

Hi Radim!
Fantastic shot.Lovely sand dunes colors.Very good composition.

Hi Radim,
lovely composition with this couple in love which is held the hand to benefit from a so beautiful landscape.
Great work
Philippe

What a photo!
Excellent! Well done!

Belle composition avec ces ombres immenses sur le sable et la lumière du couchant. Excellent !

Great shot! Love the way you took the picture and the way it looks.

One of the hardest thing i find in taking your own shadow, is to try and have it look natural, without the camera shadow showing anywhere. And you did a great job at that!

"We come in peace. Bring us to your leader."

Your shadows do add a nice elment to the composition. Keep in mind, the shadows draw the eye towards the vanish point in the distance but nothing really there. I still enjoy the picture

Very nice. The shadows add interest.

Hello Radim,
Well, I will certainly NOT write any negative comments about this picture (if you have a second to spare, go to my gallery and look at my "Kiss on the Rocks'!). Fabulous colours here, three different zones, each of them with a different ratio of the picture's surface, great feelings for the textures, and .... your angel-like silhouettes invading all the space.
Humans, some times, deserve to live on this planet! Well done for the two of you, and long life under the the sun!
One question: why don't you give any technical info on how you did this one, and others?
Cheers, amz

greta colours and contrast and veeeeeeerrry long shades well done

This is sheer magic, Radim.
I never thought shadows could be that long. Maybe they are, in Australia!

Bonjour Radim
Superbe cliché. On croirait les petits personnages montés sur des échasses.
Bon travail - merci pour le partage.
Amitiés
Nicole

Hi Radim, very creative, very romantic, superb mood, very nice you chose the hands in "V" shape; congratulations! Daniel

A little art work is always good ... very romantic too ...

Hi Radim,
Great shot, first the dunes are superbe and very good idea with these shadows, you are geant !

Excelent shot and butiful coloures. TFS

Wouah ! C'est une photo magnifique. Elle a des couleurs très chaudes, très agréable.
Et les ombres sont extraordinaires ! C'est très marrant cet effet. Et le cadrage est parfait.
Bravo Radim
J'adore. A bientôt

this a great shot of the shadows on a nice background.
i like frame, and excellent composition.

Hi Radim. I added this to the My shadow theme for you. The ripples of sand are doing some amazing things with the light and shadows. I see someone took this one-handed! :). I don't see any blur from that. Nice shot Radim.

Hi Radim.
Superbe !
J'adore la texture du sable mélangé à ce jeu d'ombres.
Les deux ombres des personnes sont superbes et les couleurs magnifiques.
Bref, c'est beau !

(I come back for the smile)

Hi Radim.
This is a real masterpiece.
It is funny to see how colours change in this low lying sun.
Fantastic!

Aleks

Hi Radim

Nice work
you choose the right time of day and sun angle to create a wonderful shoot
the colors are amazing

Well done!!

Ahoj Radime,
velmi hezky jsi zpestřil krásnou krajinu romantickým motivem. Další zasloužený úspěch na TE,gratuluji. Už můžeš vydat kalendář, který by šel dobře na odbyt, si myslím.

Hi Radim!
Wonderful idea! Beautiful colors, light and excellent POV! Great work!
TFS;-)
regards
Dorota

Hi Radim,
Very original. The shadows are fitting very well on the dunes and created a romantic atmoshpere. Great light and very beautiful colours.
Regards,
Ricardo

hi Radim,
Spectacular ! Obviously you were there just at the right time to maximize this shades effect, not only on your own shades but as well with the many graphical ones of the sand foreground. I like the powerful leading lines they provide and also how they undulate with the sand dunes. A beautiful middle warm area separates the shady part from the sky and adds good light contrasts, another successful composition of yours.
Have a nice week end,
Jean-Yves

Hi Radim,
A splendid sunset shot with a creative perspective view. Very well seen and composed with the two shadows of the bodies, giving great depth to the distant horizon. Excelent light and sand repetitive patterns. Goof light and fine sharpness. Excelent graphism and geometric enquadrement in a vertical format. Congratulations and my BRAVO!

Have a nice weekend and TFS.
Fernando

Hi Radim
Well composed self-portrait. You've got such long skinny legs ;-)
I like how your silhouettes are well isolated and the graphic angles.
The light is very pretty and as usual I love those ripples in the sand.
Regards Nikki

Hi Radim,
Very original and beautiful picture, I love the shadows, sand dunes and colours.
Great work

Bonjour Radim,
Cette photo présentée en page de présentation a retenu toute mon attention : je la trouve très bien faite. Ce degradé et ces ombres immenses et symboliques sont très bien vus. Excellent ! Merci
Gérard

Hi Radim,
Don't worry, Ghosts and Shadows are not prohibited by TE's TOS:) Excellent idea to get those long shadows on the smooth textured sand. Excellent Work!

A delight this one, for sure the best shadow projected on floor picture here on TE. I love this kind of photos, so i can't resist to add this one in my favs.

Hello Radim,
This photo has a scary long shadow on it, it goes against all physics. Still wondering how you added the shadow, is it by standing there or by photoshop. Either way, its amazing. Well done.
Regards, Ramy.

fabulous composition Radim..
wonderful use of the sunlight..

Great to see all your work.It is good that you have caputered an image that people would not even think about trying.
tfs Richard.

This is great photo. I love colors and composition

Does this photo need any more points? I like the way the shadows become less clear in the distance while the horizon is sharper than the foreground... Nice human touch too

Salut Radim..
Et beh.. je ne connaissais pas cette tribu dans l'Est de l'Australie..
Un peuple au longues jambes..
Les couleurs, la lumières sur ce sable.. génial..
