About it was very difficult for me to stay still and then jump over the rock!I managed to do it, although blurriness was unavoidable, anyway, I and Elias are happy for the result. A little photoshop to enhance the colors. This place is one of my favorite places in my heart and in my mind, the place where I first swam , the place I first dreamt.

My Dear Olga!
I studied electronics engineering. But, just my wife left me I had a new sentiments and telepathic events. Then I go for psychology workshop and seminars. I read so much. I made a practices. During last 16 years I had a capability of feeling humans from the distance. but basicly I am reading your words very carefuly, slowly for trying to understand and feeling some frequencies coming from you, from my friends. I like so much to find the real sources of thinkings, sentiments. And the answers of why s, when s, what s.
Please send me a special email including your date of birth. We will see what I can analyse about you.
Warm Hugs
ALI

My Dear Friend Olga!
According to your about; this place is so important for you. You have there very nice memories, traces of memories. Very naive about. This place is unique for you.
And very important point is your swimming costume. This is a really "Robe"(in French). It is so elegant and naive with its including. Nudity or bikini I always refused. This is so noble like your about. For me this is an mermaid.
Wonderful shot, unforgetable specific memory.
Warm hugs for you. My salutations to your lucky husband.
ALI

thanks Stan,I must say I didn't use photoshop ( only for enhancing the colors) , I just had to pose for more than ...I don't remember the number ! Although the effect seems beautiful , it is a bit blurry but under all those circunctances ( 7 in the morning, cold etc) I find the image OK!Thank you for looking.

I like how you are almost floating above the water. Only splash of water shows how movement started. Wish spash would not be there!!!!

I like your photos, Olga.

They all have strong impact!

All those men were there inside,

when she came in totally naked.

They had been drinking: they began to spit.

Newly come from the river, she knew nothing.

She was a mermaid who had lost her way.

The insults flowed down her gleaming flesh.

Obscenities drowned her golden breasts.

Not knowing tears, she did not weep tears.

Not knowing clothes, she did not have clothes.

They blackened her with burnt corks and cigarette stubs,

and rolled around laughing on the tavern floor.

She did not speak because she had no speech.

Her eyes were the colour of distant love,

her twin arms were made of white topaz.

Her lips moved, silent, in a coral light,

and suddenly she went out by that door.

Entering the river she was cleaned,

shining like a white stone in the rain,

and without looking back she swam again

dear friend ,sometimes I think that our government wanted something like this to happen, I am afraid that one third of our country will be sold to big companies now , since noone will want the land there, and it will be full of concrete, factories and maybe some huge beach hotels for the rich people only....this is repulsive...I am sooo ashamed of my government.Greek people are represented by incompetent people.

I am really sorry for whay has happened in Greece, in Sicily and soputhern Italy it has been (almost) the same: criminal hands are still free to kill. That's why this image is wonderful: it's an image of life, og hope, of water water anyehere...great.

Thanks a lot for the explanation, Olga Melissa! So go for panning as long as the summer is still here, or get some neoprene diving suit! ;-)

this image is a self-portrait, I mean, I wasn't the one who took it, I was the subject, hehe, so we didn't use the manual functions.I have some other photos that are considerably clearer, but this one made me feel free.Thank you sooo much for looking.Kisses,Olga.
ps.panning would be a good idea in such a situation,yes, I would have used that function.

Nick Karagiaouroglou Nick Karagiaouroglou   {K:127263} 8/27/2007
A very nice idea and exactly the right moment to let the girl look like hovering over the water. The coloring is also extremely nice. For avoiding the bluriness you could focus first at the distance to the girl (while she still stand on the rock) using some relatively wide aperture and the fastest possible shutter speed. The DoF would get narrower around the plain of the girl, but since this was the protagonist the rest of the depth could be used for contributing mainly colors but not as much detail. (BTW, do you remember your settings?)

All the best,

Nick

it is a selfportrait and my husband took it after several attempts.
ps .I woke up this morning and it smells like burnt wood everywhere, many people died in my country and the fire hasn't been extinguished yet...We experience a huge ecological destruction.

really you did an amazing job, complements!

Thanx and Cheers !!

I think not any more, 55 people have died because of fire and almost one third of my country is gone because of fires everywhere this very moment, we have gone crazy, people and animals die...anyway, Corfu is safe for the time being, it is a magical place , a mystic place and especially if you know secret places like me!Thank you for looking!

Olga,

I am inspired by this shot. There is something very freeing about it. I love how you can see exactly where you jumped from; it almost looks like you can walk on that water.
