By the sea

At Canakkale (specifically, Gallipoli Peninsula), where about half a million men were lost... Please view larger (F11).

Your comments on the photograph are very much appreciated.

Kopmpozisyon sade ve guzel Bulent Bey!

Very well done! I like the post processing as well... The tones and the exposure work for me...

 

By Land...By Air...and By Sea... Good tribute to the people and to the history of this place...juan

I can see why you responded to my picture. You have the same eclectic point of view that I do. This one is an extraordinarily good composition.with great depth. Very satisfying.

Such a lovely and soul felt image...great work in B&W....Marjorie

Bulent, For me the emotion of this image would have been increased by framing out the ship in the background. Without it she would be completely alone.JP

Lovely imagine Bulent with a great light. Congrats.

Thank you all very much for your visit and the comments. This was a special photo for me and I appreciate your interest in it.

Juan, a group from New Zealand was also around. Coming from the other side of the world to get the feeling...

John, since this particular piece of land had been heavily beaten by The British and The French fleet, I imagined a connection between the woman, the ship and the bird above. Leaving her alone could have been better, I think, if the place had no particular history.

I have nothing to add to the above other than to say I hadn’t noticed this picture until now but it is really, clearly, a picture that must be noticed.

That's it! congrat. Marianne

LOVE this image. so simple and yet so powerful!

thank you for your kind post on my image as well.

Ciao
