Evening Traffic

Dimitris,

  Wow.....beautiful image with wonderful light & composition.  Thanks for sharing. Take care, Patsy

Preciosa, con unos tonos y atmosfera sensacional. ++

Un cordial saludo -Tolo.

I rate this photo some days ago, but didn´t left a comment yet. The image is amazing, excellent presentation of the detail. The birds are on right places and adds a lot to the overall feeling. The composition is very good and light is just fantastic. Best regards.

The golden light that bathes the scene sets a wonderful evening atmosphere. A great image, really sharp and yes I agree with the above comment, the birds are perfectly placed too.

Well done Dimitris!

Regards

Alf

Can almost feel the moisture. Great capture. Super sharp. Love the birds.

Cheers

From what you have explained Dimitris, you have done as little as possible to 'ruin' this lovely image. It amazes me when one is 'in the right place at the perfect time'....the golden time of day when you are able to capture tones and hues not otherwise possible. 

This 'tug boat' that at any other time of day, would seem almost ugly and dirty as it goes about it's harbour chores, is transformed into a thing of beauty just by 'light'. The shadows work to your advantage in the entire scene. What a beautiful moment it must have been just to 'take in', let alone, capture the image. Even the seagulls, especially the one in the foreground are in just the right place. Then as I look further into the image the other boats and background hills have complied, turning 'Evening Traffice' into what appears to me as "Evening Tranquility'. Stunning! my sincere thanks for sharing this lovely composition.

On this quiet Sunday morning, your composition has touched me deep inside, where the 'Master's Brushes' dance. Sincerely, Gail

I am terribly sorry El I should have answered your question. Please forgive me for not doing so earlier. My God El, how many times  have you been to Cyprus? I am very impressed; yes it is Limassol, just outside the harbour. 

I am deeply touched by your comment Gail. Thank you! The first thing that came into my mind after reading such an encouraging comment is the wish to become better...

Thank you dear friends one and all, for taking the time to comment on this picture and forgive me for not mentioning each of you. But I am very happy and encouraged to see so many new faces. Thank you again.

i like very much the tone of this shot

Good morning Dimitris, thank your for confirmation. I was sure because of the bg contours and especially because of the higher hill to the left. And yes, I am quite regularly in Limassol for a couple of days...:) Regards - El

Superb lighting, lots of mood, a very tranquil scene.

Very good work with effective light ..lovely.

Excellent capture with great composition and perfect light condition.Bravo

Best regards Sadegh

Very beautiful photo with nice composition and very good lighting. Congrats !

I have been gone for a while my friend, but I see you have not.  Your work just keeps getting better and better.  Being a lover of the sea, I admire the unique way you have presented this shot in monotones.  I've latched on to the overlapping shapes, and the concept of threes--three mountains, three boats, three birds--which I like very much.  They work beautifully together and give a nice sense of (soprano, alto and bass) harmony.  Very nice.  I'll be coming back soon to look at more. 

Hi, D.L. It is nice to see you back my friend!. I too adore the sea. The voice of my mother still echoes in my mind when she was calling us for supper at dusk when we were little and we always answered...in a minute. But it was always much longer than a minute, we were very reluctant to come out of the water.....-:).  When you have a minute listen to the harmony of ''Chi mi frena'' from Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor.  Thank you for your wonderful, comment. Warm regards, Dimitris.

Wonderful shot
