Standing between Sky&Sea, a photo from Mugla, Aegean

Photographer's Note

BY THE SEA SHORE

Soft sand
Whispering winds
Sky & Sea
Hand-in-hand.
Salty waft
Mist hangs
Shells galore
Mysteries untold
Seaside allure
Leaves me
Wanting for more

A view from Bodrum Marina.
Have you noticed the "mild pink" clouds ?

Bodrum (from Petronium; formerly Halicarnassus (Turkish: Halikarnas, Ancient Greek: Αλικαρνασσός)) is a Turkish port town in Muğla Province, in the southwestern Aegean Region of the country. It is located on the southern coast of Bodrum Peninsula, at a point that checks the entry into the Gulf of Gökova, and it faces the Greek island of Kos. Today, it is an international center of tourism and yachting. The city was called Halicarnassus of Caria in ancient times. The Mausoleum of Mausolus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, was here.

Bodrum Castle, built by the Crusaders in the 15th century, overlooks the harbor and the International Marina. The castle grounds includes a Museum of Underwater Archeology and hosts several cultural festivals throughout the year.

The region includes the municipalities of Bodrum, Turgutreis, Ortakent, Türkbükü, Yalıkavak and Gümüşlük, and numerous recent tourist-oriented developments were built or are being built across the district area. The peninsula extends across an exceptionally dry belt contrasting even with its immediately neighboring regions, and poor rainfall results in a constant shortage of potable water, an issue that became more critical lately, with newcoming settlers and the visitors.

Bodrum Marina'dan bir görüntü.
Tekneler ve direkleri gökyüzü ve deniz arasında
bir köprü gibiydi adeta...
Belli belirsiz pembe "uçak izleri"ni farkettiniz mi ?

Merhaba Hulya,
Yukaridan gozuken isik demetleri (huzme mi deniyordu onlara?) ve tekne direkleri birbirinin uzerine oyle guzel oturmus ki...
Dikey kadraj tekne direkleriyle paralellik acisindan cok hosuma gitti. Yaz gelse de tekrar gidebilsek oralara... ahh ahhh... Efkarlandim gece gece :)
Selamlar,
Burcu

Merhaba Hulya,

"I dream a night where the sea
In tranquill moods wash my heart..
Where stars paint blue my heart
Leaving my footprints virgin... "

Lovely image, well shot.
Good tones...
All the best, dear friend.

Hülyacım,
Kompozisyon çok hoşuma gitti, yat direkleri çok ilginç durmuş, hem de hepsi düz ve dikey (Ben Boğaziçi köprüsünün ayağını biraz eğri tutmuşum da, commentlere yazmışlardı)
Sevgiler,
Zeynep

merhabalar,
sade,yalın ama etkileyici, teknelerin sıklığı ve düzen içinde duruşu hoş, dikey kadraj çok yakışmış, yukarıdan gelen ışık hüzmeleri de ayrı bir ayrıntı, eline sağlık,
Selamlar,

Hülya hanım Merhaba ;

ilginç bir kare ışık hüzmeleri güzel görünüyor , yalnız keşke o yatlarda biraz daha ayrıntıyı görebilseydik yani biraz daha yakın plan olsa çok daha güzel olurdu diye düşünüyorum elinize sağlık iyi akşamlar

Süper bir kompozisyon olmuş, tekn direkleri yularıda ışık harika bir görüntü oluşturuyor...

Superb and absolutely well composed and seen. I love the clarity and the textures. The work is great and well captured.

angle and this gives nice perspective.
The boats give a nice composition
Bravo

Olá Hulya,

Yes i notice the pink clouds which are a intersting of the sky.The masts of boats are also an intersting element of the photo.

A lovely vertical composition that fits nicely with the long sails of the boats in a 1/2 frame. As for the clouds, they are just lovely

Çok keyifli ve de grafik etkisi yüksek bir kare.

Hi Hulya
these boats in the harbour give us the illusion of a forest; Excellent idea to get a vertical cropping for it.
The light also is beautifull.
Well done

Truja (4953) 2008-04-14 14:01

Merhaba Hulya,
it is a very interesting image that marks to the so small difference between the sky and the sea. The vertical format has a very interesting force and intensifies the distribution of elements in the photography. Great graphical game with the masts of the boats forming a set and the luminosity is excellent.

Salut, Jordi

pablominto (53746) 2008-04-15 4:36

Hello Hulya,
A fine composition, the simplicity is striking!
Division of the frame is well done and the result is well balanced...
Fine details and repetition in the masts!
Greetings,

Merhaba Hulya!

Beautiful picture of Bodrum's marine with many and many yachts!

I've been to Bodrum several years ago - it is a very nice resort town.

Merhaba Hulya,
It didn't look so promising from the thumbnail. The strange linear clouds combine with the masts of the boats, which make an interesting pattern. Beautiful light also.
Selamlar, José
