Evening ..., a photo from Fthiotida, Central Greece

Photographer's Note

It's the same place of course as some from previous posts. Some places become an obsession! This one was a revelation. Everywhere you turned there was something more beautiful than the previous one... and I went on shooting. Couldn't really know when to stop. Thanks to Miranda, my spouse and friend for the last 38 yrs I got unstuck...

Thanks for stopping by and I apologize for not being very prompt with my comments but it has really been a very hectic month at the school...

Hi Argiris,

I like the mood of this place with its natural earth colors and the calm it inspires. The sky is really well taken with the different nuances.

Well done,
Edi

Hello Argiris!
That's another outstanding photo job!
I love the composition with all the elements so cleverly placed in the image! Sharpness, exposure, colors, depth of field are all excellent! The level of pp is suitable to the image and also pleases me!
The sky looks so wonderful, those three boats are charming items and the leafless branches on top of the image with the sunlight hitting them were a great idea!
TFS - congratulations!
Best regards,

Hello Argiris,
A real beauty, this image is perfectly composed and the light you have here is fantastic.
The sky is purely incredible and I think the choice of giving it so much room is completly adequate here.
Have a nice evening.
Best regards, Christian

batalay (41261) 2009-05-25 9:40

Hello Dear Argiris,

Indeed, it must be a busy time wrapping up the academic year. This beauty from last January is again one of those surrealistic images you have given us lately. I have frequently told friends not on TE that most of us can take trips on vacations, but we would bring back photographs from the lighting conditions seen in a short visit. But imagine, I tell them, if you lived at some of these sites, what conditions you would see. Your composition is exquisite, the light management, colors and resolution are flawless.

Warm regards, Argiris.

Αργύρη καλησπέρα,
πολύ καλή καταγραφή της Χειμωνιάτικης παραλίας με τις βάρκες να είναι τραβηγμένες στην παραλία και να περιμένουν πως και πως να ξαναμπούν στην θάλασσα.Εξαιρετική η καταγραφή των απογευματινών χρωμάτων και της ηρεμίας του τοπίου.

Καλη δύναμη για το τέλος του σχολικού έτους,Δάνος

Kalimera Argiri,

Excellent layout of boats especially biggest one at front are worked wonderfully. Its reflection and powerful light from rights are makes it an eye catcher part of the frame. I liked also lovely shore and trees with your artistic touch all over frame. Congratulations. Ευθυμίες.

hi Argiris

I think you really know how to treat Greece landscape well and present it full of attraction through your pp work.

Of course the natural setting of this lovely view is most impressive when it comes to composition, light exposure and graphical appeal. A job well done in all!
