Nea Triglia, a photo from Halkidiki, Macedonia

Photographer's Note

A three days visit to Halkidiki is a great opportunity to see the place away from the overcrowded summer!This is the beach of Nea Triglia,a municipality of 5,888 residents,located at the west part of Halkidiki perfecture and 50km away from Thessaloniki. The place was active from prehistoric years, as the discoveries in the wider region shows, as the skull of Archanthropoy in Petralona cave.It is speculated that a town existed in the place of New Triglia with the name Spartolos in the current region Plane.During the Byzantine years was named Zyli or Zgyli.The old name (from the years of Ottoman domination) was Soyflar and thus today is called like that from the natives. The installation of refugees in the village Soyflar in the newer years became afterwards 1922, from residents emanating from the Asia Minor and the Eastern Thrace. Apart from New Triglia, certain other refugees installed themselves in Rafina Attica and thus two cities have most excellent relations. Before the arrival of refugees, Soyflar had devolved to the possession of Turku Aga and afterwards the Jew Saoyl Modianoy, in order to be bought from the Holily Abbey Batopedioy. In 1926 Soyflar became autonomous community, and received the name New Triglia. During B΄ World War the village was destroyed by the Germans.

A tripod was used for the shot along with the wide 17-35 lens.The sky was amazing as it was raining some hour before.I did some process afterwards by enchancing the warm tones and that gave this almost green of the sea,sharpen it and minimize the noise with Neatimage.Finally frame and resize!

This is really a high class shot.
Both for colors and light, but also for the blurred effect on the shore, which is very special and beautiful.
I like also the simplicity of the picture. Beach, sky, and an umbrella, with a diagonal line.

Regards Stefano

a surreal beauty, a dream like mood you managed to create here panagioti... cant take my eyes off of it...

Γεια σου Παναγιώτη
Πολύ όμορφη σύνθεση και υπέροχα χρώματα. Σίγουρα το θόλωμα της επιφάνειας του νερού έγινε από τον μεγάλο χρόνο έκθεσης και όχι από το neatimage. Μια μικρή ατέλεια θεωρώ τον "jpeg θόρυβο" στα όρια της ομπρέλας που δημιουργήθηκε από την συμπίεση. Το αρχείο δείχνει ότι είναι μόνο 89kb. Έχεις περιθόριο μέχρι τα 300kb πλέον και έτσι νομίζω θα απαλείφονταν το πρόβλημα.
Φιλικά
Χρήστος

Καλημέρα Παναγιώτη!
Είναι πρώτη φορά που επισκέπτομαι το προφίλ σου κι ομολογώ οτι έχω μείνει πολύ εντυπωσιασμένη!! Για να μην ξεφύγω...
Η συγκεκριμένη φωτογραφία είναι πραγματικά ονειρεμένη, τόσο από φωτισμό, γωνία λήψης, χρωματισμό.. Μπράβο σου!
Καλή σου μέρα,
Αγνή
