Nice symbolic shot Mohammad. Beautiful gradation of colors and efficient composition. Original note also. I like this greek author. I saw his tomb last year in Crete. Is epitaph is "I hope for nothing. I fear nothing. I am free."

Thanks for interesting guidelines and for this beautiful work of shadow and light. Like in the previous shot you did, the bird is a must! Great work and thanks for sharing.

Imagem simples e forte, gosto de composições como esta, com o degrade de cores e a oposição da luz e das sombras com a bela silhueta. Otimo trabalho Mahammad Hesamian.
Greetings.

Très belle ta composition avec le soleil en bas à droite. Amicalement/jr

Hi Mohammad, beautiful photo, very nice perspective, silhouette and light. I particularly like the gradual shift from brighter to darker tones. Well done!

nwoehnl (122) 2005-01-04 16:19

Hi Mohammad. Excellent framing you made here with the ¼ sun in the lower corner, and the silhouette of the bird on top of the pole. Good color degradation starting with the sun and ending in almost darkness in the upper left corner. Very good shot.

alford (4063) 2005-01-04 19:20

Wonderful shot, Mohammad! Very tranquil shot! I like how you've framed the sun, and the bird on top of the post. And a very appropriate title. rgds.

Nicely and artisticaly composed.
I like the colors and the dominating position of the bird in these contrasts.
Make me think of "Jonathan Livingtone" because above of the sun...

Hi Mohammad, very interesting composition in that one, the position of the sun helps to produce a broad range of pastel tonal ranges, the rising pole and the bird nicely equilibrate it.

Bonjour Mohammad, une très jolie réalisation, jeux d'ombres et de lumière très bien éfféctuée, bravo.
Amitié/ martine.

Great light again Mohammad, it silhouette of the pole and the seagull against the beautiful background make the picture wonderful. Match frame too.
Greeting, John.

Hi Mohammad

Well seen silhouette of the seagull. I like the layered light tones on the right.

Maru (0) 2005-01-05 14:47

Mohammad, just a beautiful photo! The dark silhouette of the gull with that overesposure light in the opposite side makes a great composition. The fade in the color and light adds a magical mood. Well done!

bantonbuju (51815) 2005-01-06 3:55

this time i am admiring the technical side of the pic - eos 20d coping with that type of light, something quite interesting;
plus lively composition

jrj (34843) 2005-01-06 6:38

Nice one M. Attractive colour setting, very good use of the light and the sun as a contrast to the seagull overviewing it all in the top of the mast. Framing well choosen.

..a fine new year also to you :-)

kikvel (4784) 2005-01-06 20:10

very nice shot Mohammad! I like the composition here

I see my friend you have the same lens I do, sometimes it is soft, specially when the light is poor

well done!

Oh a fine atmosphere you caputed here Mohammad - the backlight image works nicely and the seagull loking toward the sun give us the feeling of your title - thanks for sharing this image and quote.

I love the colouring in this image, looks great. Only problem I see with it however is that the bird on its stand isnt so sharp. Still good work however.
