Athens Christmas tree, a photo from Attiki, Attica

Photographer's Note

Athens Christmas tree

Athens is celebrating Christmas. During Christmas, Athens becomes the city of children, enchanting fairytales and fascinating games. The City of Athens has prepared a program of high quality, rich in imagination, attractive for both children and adults. Many original events will give life to the center of the city by revealing the multicultural character of Athens, its tradition but also the city's European identity

Bonjour Costantino,

Une belle sc鑞e ou le sapin aux formes tr鑣 moderne sert d'arri鑢e plan au baiser des amoureux en ombres chinoises. Le cadrage est tr鑣 bien fait et nous offre une tr鑣 belle heure bleue.

Bon samedi

Hi Costantino,
The couple at the huge Christmas tree would be worth a picture of their own but here we get a glimpse of the street around them and some illuminated buildings as well.
Merry Christmas!

Hello Costantino,
It looks like there's some romance going on in front of that Christmas tree. Maybe it's the red color that put them in a loving mood. :-) I like all of the lights that stand out in the blue hour. Have a Merry Christmas!

Hi Costantino,
a beautiful Christmas Card in this photo.
Is a good composition where the Christmas Tree, its lighting, the soft atmosphere of the blue hour, and the people in the square, offers us a wonderful seasonal scene.
A perfect management of the exposure and a good chromatic quality.
Well done.
Best regards, and I wish to you and to your family a very Happy Christmas.

Καλημέρα Κωνσταντίνε,
μια θαυμάσια εικόνα με πρωτότυπη σύνθεση, υπέροχα ζεστά χρώματα και μια μικρή χριστουγεννιάτικη ιστορία. Μου αρέσει πολύ η αίσθηση του χώρου και το πως η χριστουγεννιάτικη διακόσμηση καθορίζει το χαρακτήρα του αστικού τοπίου και την ατμόσφαιρα. Η ανθρώπινη παρουσία είναι λιγοστή αλλά ωραία κατανεμημένη και ενδιαφέρουσα. Συγχαρητήρια και ευχαριστώ!
Να είσαι καλά, να περάσεις όμορφα αυτές τις μέρες,
Ουρανία

Κωνσταντίνε καλημέρα,\
άλλη μια όμορφη βραδυνή φωτογραφία από την πλάτεία Κοντζιά με το δένδρο να έχει τοποθετηθεί στο πιό κατάλληλο σημείο στο κάδρο.
Το ζευγαράκι που φιλιέται είναι το κερασάκι στην τούρτα.Πολύ ωραία.

Εύχομαι σε σένα και την οικογένειά σου Ευτυχισμένος και με υγεία ο καινούργιος χρόνος,Δάνος
