I'm always a bit depressed while leaving the mountains. I'm often unhappy with living in the big city, even so charming like Cracow is. Lack of space, let's call it :) My beloved Beskidy Mts - 80 km far away, amazing world of Tatras another 20.

Quite melancholy mood today. Sun is setting over Velky Choc - the highest mount in the Choc Mts as seen from the bank of Liptovska Mara dam.

Bonsoir

Hi Mat,
Yes, defintely a melancholy feeling in this picture with the soft, warm colors and the clouds in the sky. I know exactly what you mean about being a bit depressed when you leave the mountains to go back home!
Have a nice week-end.
Brigitte

Hi Mat,
Well the light of the image was certainly a good choice to match your mood.Very soft and calm...the day coming to an end....expectancy of the next.Hope you are not too sad with you leaving.A very nice image!
Regards, david

Hi Mat,
It does have a melancholy mood. On the other hand my friend says it's a romantic picture and gives a feeling of vast beauty. Best wishes. Danilo

Hi Mat,
I understand your melancholy mood. I am lucky enough to live in a valley surrounded by mountains just a few miles away...The warm tones though of this shot are also inspiring. I like the silhouettes and the various gradations and layers horizontally as the eye moves inward and upward in the frame. The mist and clouds are swirling about, tantalizing you and you will live to return to the glorious mountains another day. Have a good week, my friend.
John

Hi Mat
Love this capture. The soft, and warm light gives the picture a nice glow. The composition is nicely divided between the areas of interest and the scene is nice and crisp in detail. Good light management and work.
Cheers
Aubrey

Witaj Mat!
Faktycznie trudno oderwaæ siê od takich klimatów....
Wspania³a atmosfera, roz¶wietlona mg³a kojarzy mi siê ze s³onecznym koñcem deszczowego dnia ...
Super!
Pozdrawiam serdecznie!

Beautiful light and really nice tranquil scene captured here as well. Regards, Doug

Hi Mateusz,

Astonishing illuminated sky. The sun is just about to go down an gives the whole scene a beautiful mood and warm feeling.
I think it's a great shot and I'm getting more and more convinced, that I one day will arrange one of my hiking trips in the Tatras.

Thanks,

Christian
