"The Magic Lamp"

2006: Image nr. 1. The blue sky in Tenerife reminded me of Iceland. Tenerife and Iceland are on the same meridian and some things in the nature are familiar. Picture taken close to the bar in the park who belongs to Gran Hotel Adeje. Went out with the camera and one lens to make a good photo in the park that day. Copyright: Baldur Birgis

I was in Tenerife in last April and one day I decided to make a

decent photo in the park who belongs to the hotel. Equipment: One

camera and one lens. When I was a child I wrote about the the magic

lamp of Aladin. I felt the tower as the lamp and the cloud to the

left as the spirit from it! Thanks in advance for your time and

thoughts.

Doug, Jennifer, Pawel, Paul, Julio, Pnina and William for your promotive comments. Glad you like the image. As I have said before, the park was my limit that day. The light was great and the cloudy sky was beautiful.

This is one of the towers of the hotel building. I felt the motiv a kind of arabian. Then the story of the magic lamp of Aladin came into my mind. I saw the the top of the tower as a lid of the lamp and the horizontal cloud to the left as Aladin! I must be cracy! I used the triagle formation of the roof as a forground to complete the composition. Finally I saturated the image a little bit compared to the fairy-tale. Best wishes, Baldur

Colin, I did not think so either. This day was different from the others. Maybe it was my wish while viewing "The Magic Lamp" who made it! This was my first shot in the year 2006 and I really like it. Thanks for your visit and comment.
