ciao
solo la mitica Rollei con il favoloso Planar insieme all'ottima velvia poteva meritarsi EC e SC insieme
complimenti!
p.s.
altro che digitali...
per arrivare alla resa cromatica della Fuji il CCD deve fare molta ma molta strada ancora...

Hi...
I am little in delay why I have had problems with the job. but I wanted to speak little with you... are amused me with this photo and the comments! I believe in the photography and the feelings that create, creed that every photographer is a "poet", in every various way for various photo. every frame he transmits of the feelings and I "try to them" for every photo that I see. but I give also to the others, if I can and if I succeed... the poetry = to the photography is a common way that we have in order "to speak" a way at a distance where colors do not exist, differences or ideas... is the true nature of the POETRY! I believe also that I have found many friends here in the great family of UF.. true and sincere friends whom they have in common the love for the beauty and the feeling that they give in every photo!... for all this I must say thanks to you...

(SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH..)

I have never been to Scotland, I if I go there, I would like to find an atmosphere as this in your photo! Not only it?s a splendid landscape, but there is also a great mood with these fantastic colors, nice reflections and open space, it gives me a sense of freedom. Bye Max

PS: Roberto is a nice guy, he writes with the heart, but maybe his translator does not translate his emotions very well! ;)

Wow Jan!
The colours are really stunning and so is the composition of this image. This landscape is fascinating cause it gives me great feelings. The tranquillity and peace of its vastness is amazing. The reflections are very beautiful and....I love the "blue" mountains
An outstanding and impressive capture, Jan.
You did a great job again.

Kim Culbert   {K:37070} 5/3/2004
The soft colours and mist-like atmosphere really add some mood to this shot. Looks like a stunning location in the first place, and then to add such a gorgeous sky, coupled with the great framing... the only thing that bothers me a little is the reflected sky at the very bottom of the frame.
It seems to have an almost beige / green colour cast to it and it stands out so much from the blue /pink hues in the rest of the image.

Perhaps a slight crop at the bottom would help to make this feel more complete to me... although this may be the reason that so many others like it. To me, though, it seems awkward and my eye keeps going down there.

Hugo de Wolf Hugo de Wolf   {K:185110} 5/3/2004
Hi Jan, the soft, pastel tones are excellent. The scerene, tranquil atomsophere of the Loch is amazing, and the composition is very well balanced. The gentil touch of fog in the distance and the (barely visible, yet unmistakably there) green tones in the island are fantastic. Very well done!

Cheers,

Hugo

Imageopolis Featured Photo Critique hello jan..
I am bewitched in front of therefore much beauty. simple effect of the nature an optimal linear composition and the "castles" that seem alive. to stan out and to exit from the lake! it was not that discounted to be scozia... a simple and and mysterious earth with its open spaces! I have not never seen it "from the alive one" but always through photo of great testimonies!

7 and praise
cheers
