Photographer's Note

the light around the holy man is just a halogen light behind him! :)

merhaba evren,
it's one of those pictures where you can sit and stare at it for hours....
looks unreal, looks like an illustration to one of those books for children with the stories about orient...
decisive moment? to have that guy right in front of the halogen...
have a great sunday,
j.

Merhaba Evren. I am amazed by this scene and your ability to capture a difficult time of day in such a dreamlike manner. the light, colours, shapes,the various layers, they all come together beautifully. as for the man with the glow behind him, for some reason he reminds me of the 1001 Arabian Nights.Cok guzel. Selamlar. Klaudio.

I agree with Jerzy. Reminiscent of a fantastic illustration. Things sure look different when you trade that Leica for an SLR. But still just as mystical. Best, -Hugh

Hello Evren
Very beautiful scene
the dark slope creates a nice geometric element and the light is magical over the man and the city

hi evren,

you have managed the lights very well and this makes the shot outstanding. the different layers of light and the contrasting dark foreground create magic.

Bu ne muhteşem bir çekim. Bir yorumcu Binbir Gece Masallarından bahsetmiş yukarıda. Tam da öyle bir atmosferi çağrıştırıyor. Ganj Nehri yine her zamanki gibi büyüleyici. Tebrikler.
