After dawn, a photo from Hania, Crete

Photographer's Note

This photo was taken a coule of hours after my previous post. The sun had come out bright and the sea was very calm, thus the reflections.

---

Post processing: Cropped a lot (this is actually a detail took out from a wider view, that also included some of the buildings oposite to the lighthouse).
Sharpened.

Hi Ioanna,

This a great shot - the red buoy makes all the difference to the perspective and composition of the picture.

Well done.

Regards

Peter.

Γεια σου Ιωάννα!
όμορφο το σκηνικό που μας παρουσιάζεις. Μεταδίδει ηρεμία και γαλήνη! Έχεις πετύχει μία πανέμορφη αντανάκλαση.Η κόκκινη σημαδούρα και η αντανάκλαση της κερδίζει τις εντυπώσεις και προσδίδει στην εικόνα σου.
Ενα όμορφο και "ήσυχο" σκηνικό!
Σε χαιρετώ

Hello Nana
Althought my English is not good, i will write in it, because i like every foreigner person have the oportunity to read my profound comment. :-)
So, I like your photo very much.
Good POV and vivid colors.
Right choice to include the "simadoura" in your picture.
Althought i am not sure if the red line at the frame fits.
Regards

Γειάσου Ιωάννα.
Πάρα πολύ καλό το καδράρισμά σου και η ιδέα να συμπεριλάβεις και την σημαδούρα.
Η γαλήνια θάλασσα και η αντανάκλαση του φάρου μεταδίδουν όμορφα γαλήνια συναισθήμτα.
Βρίσκω ειδικά τον φάρο αρκετά υπερφωτισμένο και η αντίθεση με τον ουρανό κάπως αδύνατη.
Χαιρετώ

Hi Ioanna,
Intresting view from calm morning I like it,specialy when I am in Hormoz water gate(in Persian Gulf) I visit this view a lot ,
anyway, I should say a very intresting shot with a great harmony of colors and light, Red floutter makes double beauty.

Thanks for sharing
Mohammad

Hi Ioanna,
A simple view in terms of elements, but that gathers its stength from this simplcity and also from the balance between the elements that creates the harmony.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Ioanna,

wih or even without the floating buoy it is a simple, relaxing and quite aesthetic capture...cheers, arturo

Ionna,
A good composition that follows the rule of thirds very well. Great colors and perfectly metered.

TFS,

Brian

Ιωάννα,
η εικόνα είναι όμορφη και το κάδρο σωστά ζυγισμένο. Είναι ολίγον τι υπερφωτισμένη όμως δεν υστερεί σε σκέψη και συναίσθημα. Επειδή δεν σε ενοχλεί η περαιτέρω επεξεργασία, έβαλα ένα λιθαράκι και εγώ όπως το καταστατικό του Trekearth προβλέπει. Ελπίζω να σου αρέσει.
Σε χαιρετώ.
Αθανάσιος.

Hi Ioanna.
Thanks for visiting my gallery, it has allowed me to visit yours. I chose this picture of you because of the very good composition, with this wonderful reflection including. Colors are very good and your frame is single but smart. Regards.
Angel.

Hi Ioanna,

Your reaction on my photograph made me look at your gallery! Your cat (times two) shot is off course a funny one, but I'm just not a cat person ;-). I do like this one, since it is simple and elegant. A nice reflection, a good build-up of the composition. Rule of thirds nicely done, good off-center positioning of the tower and the red (no idea how that is called in English...) object in the foreground. Nice one!

Greetings,
Dennis

Ioanna: I'm immediately drawn to compositions like this rathe that the one of Hydra posted immediately above it from a compositional point of view: minimalist and true to living color. Fine work. regards, c
