DREAMING

:0)

Absolutely stunning shot!!!!

Absolutely beautiful shot, how do create this image?. It's like a painting almost. Congrad, tanya.

exelent idea and prezentation

THIS...is why I'm here.

Gorgeous, lyrical, simply wonderful. I love the way her arm reflects on the underside of the water's surface. The model deserves credit for achieving this pose as well.

Micheal brings it to the point.

Even I doubt, my D200 - even waterresistant - will survive one of those photos!

Sorry for joking around - This is stunning an most beautifull.

It reminds me to old master-paintings showing greek myhtology. One of the best photos I've seen here!

- focus

It's a beautiful shot but it's too obvious the model is holding her breath, she doesn't look as relaxed as the image demands.

Delicious!

cooool :)

The idea is not novel, but the execution is very good for an amateur photographer; you might want to take a look here: http://tinyurl.com/pcggy

I actually find your underwater images quiet moving and symbolic. Martin, would you mind explaining to me what sets apart an amateur from a so called professional photographer and the fact that it is even brought up here. I am curious to find the connection.

WITH REGARDS TO Martin Mikolajek LAST COMMENT I WOULD NOT LET IT BOTHER YOUSELF AS HE DOES LEAVE SOME VERY STRANGE COMMENTS ON PN. BUT I WOULD LOVE TO SAY TO THE REST OF YOU WHO HAVE VOTED AND LEFT COMMENTS A VERY BIG THANK YOU

Breathtaking!!!

O h how bad my company would survive the market if all "amature" photographers would be able to take pictures like this!!

This is exellent work no talk about it!

I have rated it 7/7 cause its all good.

The only thing i noticed, maybe cause its on my laptop im wieving this pic, is the darker parts, there seem to be a little noise there, never the less its still a perfect picture 7/7!!

 

Vey nice nad martins comment is really funny.. not..

A professional photographer does it for a living, an amateur does it for fun.

 

So I think it was meant as a compliment.

Maybe im just not seeing the connection.. but with the title "dreaming" i see no reason for the net? At first i thought it was going to be about the woman portraying a sea creature.

other than that i agree with all the above comments about the beauty and perfect execution.

That is not a good explanation for me! I know many fine photographers that are both making money and they are having a great time at doing so! The word ?professional? gets abused in the business of photography a great deal.

Sorry, I'll rephrase:

 

A professional photographer does it for a living and is paid (and for fun), an amateur does it as a hobby and is not paid (and also for fun!).
