Reflections

I 've always believed that a successful photograph should not only be graceful, with charming colors and an interesting theme ... It should in addition convey a message to it's viewer ... The strongest the message the better the photo ... Τhis frame really accomplishes that. My initial perception was and still is that I am looking more at an image with a strong, emphatic ecological message than just an unbelievably beautiful photo ... A well deserved first place according to my standards ...

Excellent photo inviting lighting conditions, precise focusing and subtle processing skills go hand in hand on this expertly created photograph !!! The image breaks the rule of thirds in every sense and this actually is turned into maybe its most critical asset, because it automatically gains symmetry all around ... When I was creating this contest, I had images like this one in my mind ... By all means keep it up my friend, great wiork ...

A great, truly professional use of one's camera !!! Undoubtedly an extremely graceful, crystal clear low light and atmospheric long exposure cityscape !!! The warm yellowish - reddish hue atmosphere on the left half of the frame visually "quarrels" with the cold blueish hue atmosphere on the right thus forming an extremely pleasant to look at photographic result ... Never slow down your pace my friend ...

I'm quite fond of impressive mirroring frames like the above seen one !!! The lighting conditions are exceptional and the take absolutely technical !!! The intense, warm colors located at the middle of the frame (both physical and reflected ones) create an unbelievable contrast with the crystal clear bluish surroundings of the sky and the lake. A proof that an excellent frame can be captured under intense daylight and not only around golden and blue hours ... Well done my friend !!!

An exquisite subject along with technical skills go hand in hand on this expertly created photograph. The conversion of the image into gray-scale mode actually eliminates the lack of visual information at the background of the initial RAW file. This, in addition to its overexposed character is conducive to practically turnng the image into a professional ink painted drawing ... Beautiful work my friend ... Really beautiful !!
