[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Nymphai (or Nymphs in English) were minor nature goddesses which populated the cosmos. Although they were ranked below the gods, they were still invited to attend the assemblies of the gods on Olympos.

The Nymphai presided over various natural phenomena: from springs, to clouds, trees, caverns, meadows, and beaches. They were responsible chiefly for the care of the plants and animals of their domain, and as such were closely associated with the prime gods of nature such as Hermes, Dionysos, Artemis, Poseidon and Demeter...

A similar compo was posted on TE, but here I treated it to give a better visual effect.

It was a really decisive moment as nymphs are very illusive and so is the sun that insists on not waiting to finish the capture!!!

Best wishes to all of you and especially Harpya who can't stand winter cold.

hello argiris

not particulary interested in sunset in general, but i must say this one is very well composed, those character bathing in the sun reflect are very eye catching

Nice job and TFS

Hi Argiris

Ah!... I see that you let him to disappear a little more and to dye the sky with more strong colors.
I prefer like this, more strong color, is synonymous that the day was very hot!
And I thank this wonderful show, yes he comes very hot
to become warm my friend.
Beautiful visual, and compo.
Badly I can wait for mine for here!
Congratulations e Thank you.

what I like in this sunset... is to feel there is someone who is feeling it... and not just you. I am jealous, i think.

Have many "good" sunsets in your life.

My regards

teresat

Another beautiful sunset Argiris, I think the person in the suns reflection is an added bonus.

I think that Harpya will have to be patient for awhile longer.

Regards
Gil

Hello Argiris,
A wonderful sunset with great silhouettes. You've also captured the suns rays quite well. Very well exposed and processed, congrats!

Hi Argiris,

When looking at this picture I though it would be nice to see what the effect was when I pasted her in your previous picture. Hope you don't mind - it is because I love the combination of blue with orange in the sky so much.

Have a lovely weekend,

TFS

PS I checked my WS and I did see that it would have been better to clone-out those other swimmers at the left in the picture.........

Well, these nimphai can always join me for a bath, Argiris ☺^☺ - especially in such a romantic spot.
Another fine sunset, keep 'm coming, I love them.
I simply adore these colours, and the cloud layer in this shot is particularly beautiful.
