Davutoglan XI-Bird Sanctuary Nallihan, a photo from Ankara, Central Anatolia

Photographer's Note

Eleventh shot in the series. I will complete this series with a panorama in the next upload. Here we're looking towards Davutoglan village. This village is a very small one with a population of 175 (in 2010). The population was 275 in 1990. People are moving to big cities with the hope to have better ways of living. It's a pity that such a beautiful place cannot be promoted to large public and the inhabitants got nothing from this great tourism potential.

Thanks for viewing

Hi Suleyman,
a very beautiful spring landscape, bright and sunny. Nice texture of the water, the colors are very attractive. I only think you over-saturated it a bit or it may be my monitor.
Cheers
Marina

Caro amico,
purtroppo il destino di questi piccoli paesini è di spopolarsi.
In un momento di crisi tutti cercano lavoro nelle grandi città ed è un peccato. Bisognerebbe tornare alle origini specialmente quando si nasce in posti così particolari
Lo scatto è tecnicamente perfetto per il POV e la eccellente nitidezza.
Buona serata
Mario

Hello Suleyman - I am impressed by the diversity of images you have produced in this location. You have really got to grips with the possibilities it presents. I think as a landscape photographer it is wonderful when you have the opportunity to really explore each area you visit. Another very attractive shot. I look forward to the panorama! Best regards rosemary

Hello Suleyman,
how wonderfully you have discovered and presented the diverse fascinating aspects of Nallihan. I'm going to miss the sense of wonder of each new picture added to the previous experiences. This view is beautiful as well. The village is in a very privileged location and it's sad that there are not so many people there to enjoy and take care of this lovely place.
Once again there's amazing depth in your picture and great clarity. Together with the beautiful colours they attract and captivate the viewer for a long time. I love the precise capture of textures in the whole view, the light, bright and gentle all over the landscape, and the peaceful atmosphere. An exquisite work, my friend, congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a good night,
Ourania

OK, now this photo is absolutely beautiful Suleyman, really just gorgeous on every level. I am not sure I can relay to you how much I love this photo, it's so clear and crisp with stunning colors, light management, and DOF, it has everything. The clarity is out of this world and I'm sure when you viewed this photo yourself, you had to have a large smile on your face, I know I do. Superb POV, great job Suleyman!!

Hi Suleyman,
a lovely place and only 175 lucky people, beautiful colors and a wonderful sky, I really like the lake in FG and the game that the currents are in the water, perhaps caused by the wind, great depth and super sharp, very nice job...
have a nice day...

Hello Suleyman,

A picture with very nice warm and bright
colors. Point of view and composition
are great. Picture has also nice layers
(great point of view) and that creates
a nice depth. Light management is also
great.

Friendly regards,
Robert
