How reminiscent of my city!
The old Byzantine city walls, a spire and minaret together...
This is also how Istanbul is, a city of peace and unity for ages.
The compo of natural and artificial light makes a great share!
Cheers Irakli :)

Hi Hercules,

a wonderful light at this relaxing place... the palms and the lit tower are two counterpoints that catch the eye..

Geia Sou Hercules,
the warm evening light provides good ambience, the ancient walls rise above and the sky is amazingly light and blue at this special magical hour. A well balanced picture that brings cheer and comfort. Well done.
Kind Regards.

Hi Hercules,
Great view of the old city with all the elements included.... ancient walls, the palace and the clock tower. The lighting is superb, and the "blue hour" sky provides good contrast to the architectural coloured elements. The well lit clock tower acts as a beacon within the image. Well captured.
Cheers Grant

Hi there Hercules,

Long time ago huh? Hey..nice photo you present here, a lovely blue hour shot. The high POV and wide angle show the most of the area, and this, I figure touristic, spot, so deserted..creates a nice mood together with the light and colours. Good compo, nice bright sky but also details in the shades! Fine exposure and compo. Tfs and a nice weekend.
Emiel.

hola Hercules,
Una magica foto de la hora azul. La expocision esta muy bien hecha donde no hay zonas ni subexpuestas ni sobreexpuestas. Y eso es dificil de conseguir con la luz que tenias a ese momento.
Muy buen trabajo
Saludos

Hello Hercules,
It looks like the walls of Istanbul. They look pink and this is very beautiful.

Hello Hercules,
The palace looks crisp against the blue sky as one can sense how vast the fortress is. There is good light coming to the right side of the frame. Tech details as always are superior. Greetings, Danilo

Hola Hercules,

Muy buena toma en la hora azul. Me parece que hay un poquito de luz del sol en las murallas de la antigua ciudad. Los colores están magníficos. Me gustan mucho lo perfecto encuadre y los detalles.

Un buen domingo para ti.

Hi Hercules

Nicely layered into horizontal thirds, with splendid colour contrasts & sharpness. I particularly like the golden lit tower at top right, contrasting against the blue sky. Tfs!

Hi Hercules,

excellent capture of the blue hour. The contrast of the warm that comes from the architectures with the dark blue sky makes this shot a pleasant one to see. Very fine sharpness treatment. Great work!

Carlos

Hola Hercules,
la luz y los tonos que has conseguido en esta toma casi nocturna son magníficos, es una mezcla de hora azul y luz rosada sobre estas murallas.
El efecto estético del minarete y la torre en el fondo, con su iluminación artificial, es bueno y contrasta con el azul del cielo.
Todo lo que has incluído en el encuadre ayuda a crear una bella composición.
Una bella foto, mi amigo, como siempre.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Purple shadows always make me think of Impressionist painting. The shadows are cool, the remaining sunlight is warm. A very nice, calm image. I've only seen Rhodes from the airport, on my way to Karpathos.
I will have to correct that someday...
