Where are the movie stars?


Very nice, Nihat. The curve of the stream fairly draws your eye out to sea.

 

[Pete Askew]

I agree. Gorgeous Nihat, lovely tones and feel.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Superb, and a nice little poem to take us there. Encore!

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Nihat a superb image. Love the composition, with the cloud and the curve of the river. The presentation woks very well.

Thank you very much, Brian. Regarding the movie stars, we see them (so far four - Kelsey Grammer, Andie MacDowell...) in Whole Foods, Patagonia kind of stores and treat them with respect without interfering. But it's nice to see them in real life. That gives you a different perpective about them.

Thanks indeed, Pete. This is where my son surfs, and I have had the habit of following him since his childhood. Though, nowadays, same places in different times.

Rob, thank for your comment. I have no idea (if there is any) about the rules and rhymes of poetry. Yet, prefer to take the mundane sentences out of their form. I am glad you liked it.

Thank you very much indeed, Julian. It was an unusual day for the creek, I think. The beauty is, to visit the same place an be able to see something completely different.

Hope you all have a wonderful week-end!

nice tones and comp.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Nice...

 

[Nihat Iyriboz]

Thank you, Beth.
Thank you, Glenn.

 

[Andrew Cotterill]

that's a lovely composition, the river curving around to point at that low cloud. I like that mysterious mountain on the horizon that is barely visible. The clouds look like a painting (Sistine chapel ceiling?).

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Love the way that cloud is right at the point of focus, and your eye is drawn there by the stream - lovely comp.

Did you use any filters to bring out that gorgeous sky Nihat?

 

[Peter McCullough]

Beautiful captured image. Proper photography and chemical processing, excellent stuff..!!

Thank you very much, Andrew. Glad you liked it.
