Photographer's Note
Photography is the only “language” understood in all parts of the world, and bridging all nations and cultures, it links the family of man. Independent of political influence – where people are free – it reflects truthfully life and events, allows us to share in the hopes and despaire of others, and illuminates political and social conditions. We become the eye-witnesses of the humanity and " inhumanity of mankind ". - Helmut Gernsheim
The more you know, the more you realize there is to know. Being creative is not just a destination, it's the journey we take on the road to discovering who we really are. - Tedric A. Garrison -

Kalispera Georgios,
A fine B&W photo looking across to the waterfront promenade of Tessaloniki. Good clear image, calm water's and superb DOF.
Recently I red a book about Tessaloniki from 1917th to the 1990th called "The Threads", by Victoria Hilsop. Amazing story, no doubt you will recognize many places in town through the reading.
Have a nice weekend,
Ike

Hi, Georgeos,
This is very familiar view for me, and I see the White tower on the background. Excellent composition and good idea to take b&w version for this image. Well seen.
Have a nice weekend!

Γιώργο καλησπέρα,
πολύ όμορφη η μαυρόασπρη 'καρτ ποστάλ' από την Θεσσαλονίκη,με τη γωνία λήψης να δίνει ξεχωριστή προοπτική και βάθος στη φωτογραφία.Ο φωτισμός είναι έξοχος.
Καλές γιορτές,Δάνος

Hello Georgios,
This is a superb black and white composition. I like very much the long deep perspective along the façades culminating in the halls. Excellent tonal contrasts and clarity of the finest order.

Καλησπέρα Γεώργιε,
μου αρέσει πάρα πολύ ο δυναμισμός της σύνθεσής σου που παίζει με το βλέμμα του θεατή και το ελκύει αποφασιστικά μέσα στο κάδρο, από την αποβάθρα μέχρι τον Λευκό Πύργο και το βουνό, μακριά, στο βάθος. Η ευκρίνεια των λεπρομερειών είναι εξαιρετική, έκανες άριστη δουλειά με τη μονοχρωμία και δεν υπάρχει σημείο στο κάδρο χωρίς ενδιαφέρον. Οι υφές και οι αντιθέσεις αναδεικνύονται θαυμάσια. Συγχαρητήρια και ευχαριστώ!
Να είσαι καλά, καλές γιορτές με υγεία και αγάπη!
Ουρανία
