Alanya dusk Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Alanya, just before dusk as the last rays of sun lit the harbour. Some local fisherman meet to talk.
Alanya is a beautiful area surrounded by mountains.
An ancient city once home to pirates and given by Anthony to Cleopatra.
One of the two beaches is called Cleopatras beach. The city swells in the summer to about four hundred thousand people.

Excellent shot, the diagonal lines of the first boat leads the eye to the fishermen. Also, thanks for the informative note.

Excellent photo with lovely clear colouring. It is so calm and peaceful that I can understand why the fishermen want to stay and talk.

I like the way you managed to capture the mist descending down the mountain side above.....Also nice colourations & DOF.

Excellently captured imaging Michael, well done!
