The Sun We Never Had Photo

Photographer’s Note

another summer shot but in this one the colored version has been converted in black and white except some "items" i wanted to give emphasis.
i guess their summer definition is soak up the sun from sunrise till sunset!

Hi Sifis!

Wow, great effect on the game of colors! it just works pretty well, im impressed! although the main part of the image is in bw, i can still feel some warmth coming from the vivid colors of those persons!
Great imagination and creativity, and a well composed photo!
Congrats,

Pedro Seco

It looks more an apocalyptic scene with corpses all over the place than a summer beach view. Anyway, it is a quite good shot and a interesting post-processing treatment.

Ok my bags are packed, I'll be there tomorrow!! This is a very well composed photographed and the selected desaturation works well but I'll be honest that isn't what got me to click on the thumbnail. Well done.

Τα πιο όμορφα καλο...καίρια στις αμουδιές τα περνάς.
Τα συγχαρητήριά μου Σήφη για αυτήν την υπέροχη θέα, εξαιρετική δουλειά να επιλέξεις τις ομορφιές της παραλίας να τις αφήσεις έγχρωμες.
Δεν μπορω να μην την βάλω στις αγαπημένες μου. -¨)))
Χαιρετώ
Βαγγέλης

Hi Sifis,
This is an excellent work, great idea, creating an interesting effect. Well done, Mike

Άργησες αλλά το πέτυχες φίλε Σήφη. Εξαιρετικά τα... σημεία που άφησες χρωματισμά, τονίζουν την... ποικιλομορφία των.. ελληνικών ακτών! ;)

looking at this photo I'm in doubt is this just an everyday beach scene or some apocalyptic aftermath. posin of girls bodies implied both.
OK, let's stop joking. Well done pp work. Nice and a bit funny shot.

An excellent representation of summer holidays. The "characters" are the important ingredient to this image, and to the enjoyment of the holiday...soaking up the sun. The clarity of the shot is good, and the overall result of your conversion has worked extremely well.
Cheers Grant

Funny poses of the "items", hehe. Smart idea to desaturate the beach, sea and sky. Impressive shot, no doubt.
Regards.

It's nice to see your return... This shot is made a success with these young ladies as four cardinal points... congratulations...

Hello sifis. Your photo in b&w and color impresses really much. The women with their scarce clothing are because of the beach such as seals. Where are the men? The photo really belongs into a special category. A good and achievement worth seeing. Best regards, Wolfgang.

good capture of the girls bathing under glaring sun. i appreciate your efforts to emphasis the bare backs of those beautiful(?) girls by leaving them coloured in what is essentially a b&w pic. tfs.

regards,
arjun
