As I don't have anything in particular to remark on this shot, I will limit myself to saying it is fantastic and that I like it a lot.
Perfectly composed and superbely captured.
A very beautiful nichtscape, gorgeous lighting and reflections
Great work, Hugo
Cheers!

Hi Hugo,

If the other photo was good, this is fantastic. The wate arches are just incredible. The exposure is tight on the spot. It goes to my favorites.

Congrats,

Be seeing you...

Raamses.

Ha Tim! Goed dat je er weer bent. Goede vakantie gehad? Even een stukje ter info bij deze foto:
Een lager standpunt kan niet; ik heb de camera neergezet op de rand van het water; zo'n 15 cm boven het oppervlak. Dat is ook hoe ik de bewegingsscherpte voorkomen heb...;o) De lens wijst iets omhoog (zoom 105mm), vandaar dat het lijkt dat het standpunt hoger is. Kan je nagaan hoe groot dat plein was....;o)

Groeten,

Hugo

Another spectacular image! So well exposed and composed! I have no doubt at all that this image is exactly how your eye saw it! PERFECT exposure!
Fantastic water with reflections, and I love the subtle lighting on the dome in the distance.

You've captured this one beautifully, Hugo!
Lori ;)

Deze is toch sterker als de vorige. De slepende strepen licht/water vind ik erg mooi. Je hebt ze een goede plek gegeven in de compositie. Ik denk toch dat een iets lager standpunt veel goed zou doen.
Groeten Tim.

My only comment is that you should keep the possibilities of the panorama format in the back of your mind when taking photos and in the front of your mind when cropping them--this could have been a great panorama, and would have had even more impact. I look forward to the third of these.

My dear Hugo, receiving a comment from you is always an honor to me.
Looking at this photo so well composed and with perfect exposure I can see how much I have to learn about photographing.
Thank you for you advices, my friend!

The picture is perfect. Well balanced with nice colors, contrast and sharpness.
I admit I usually don't like frames. IMHO this frame doesn't add anything to this beautiful picture.
Cheers! Carlheinz

Ooooooh... this looks amazing! What a fantastic, original mood! Really so beautiful, so well composed, so "silky" feeling and wonderful place! I love those reflections too, and how the light brings out colours in the dark!

Hi Hugo,
Beautiful and romantic place Hugo. The reflections on the water has made this
night-mirror-photo perfect. But I think it?s not sharp enough or is something wrong with my eyes??
I found always the evenings in Esfahan more stunning than day time at the river (Zayande-rood) side. You?ve taken this picture at the best timing. At least in my opinion!
Regards,
farideh

To paraphrase A 1001 Arabian Nights to A 1001 Persian Lights? Ha, ha.

This is done very competently, but I am afraid I don't like the range, sharpness and saturation of negative film, especially the higher ASA/ISO varieties. I wonder how this would have turned out if shot on chrome film or straight digital?

The beautiful Mosque, and must be a land mark in Esfahan, surrounded by water and colour light musical play, is so attractive balanced. The reflection in foreground wide space is of excellent choice, stunning night image, Saeed

Hi Hugo, beautiful! It must be really difficult to take a photo in this situation. By that i mean - i would be overwhelmed from the experience of seeing all this live, that i probably couldn't concentrate on taking a pic. The memories that i would retain in my head are there to stay and can't be erased like a CF Card or hard disk. These are always the best photos, the ones i take in my head, then everything is correct and i aways give myself a +7, photo of the day etc? OK so it's only in my head :)
Thanks for your kind comments! Catch u later.
Your friend Neil

Very well color balance and lighting, the water reflection add the picture more lifely. If I can see the dome, it may looks better ? Anyway, it's a nice shot !

Cheers ! Bobby

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your comment. Difficult one. At first I had the impression the photo was slightly tilted too; but measuring it in PS (on the water line) it seems perfectly aligned. The roof has a slight angle with the horizontal, though, but that's the camera angle, not quite perpendicular to the wall, so I decided against trying to level it...

Cheers,

Hugo
