    Hi Laurent,

    Congratulations with this beautiful sea landscape. It is a pleasure to rest my eyes on it. The patterns and colors work in perfect harmony.  Best regards, Ann.

  1. Hello Hamid, congratulations on having your image selected for POW. I find this image from an alley in Abyaneh beautiful. From what I read in Wikipedia, Abyaneh is one of the oldest villages in Iran, located in the Isfahan Province in the middle of the country. You are showing some of the houses with the special terracotta/red color. And I guess that the shy little girl is either a local girl, or perhaps your daughter, wearing the traditional Abyanaki woman costume(?). She looks very sweet and proud. Maybe the clothes are new?

    The image was taken with perfect timing, as the sun is setting and shining down the narrow alley. You have handled the rather difficult exposure and the post processing very well. And the result is a well lit image, showing the details of the houses and the little girl, yet it is not too bright. The use of filters have obviously been an important part in achieving this result. The exif data show that you did not use a flash. But it seems like you have used something to brighten up the girl, which I am sure was necessary under those lighting conditions.

    The photo from this picturesque village is very pleasing to my eye. I think this photo should be one of the photos from Abyaneh in Wikipedia. Very well done, Hamid.

    Best regards
    Ann

    A beautiful light in this misty October morning landscape. You can feel the tranquility of the place almost as much from looking at the picture as from being there in person.
