[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
From my Macedonian archives...I have lots of lake pictures in my gallery from Ohrid, but I never showed you what this lovely town looks like. This is a picture of one of their narrow streets, so typical of Ohrid. I worked on the light a bit trying to enhance the peaceful mood of an afternoon walk.
PP: cloning out several wires, cropping, some straigtening, playing with light (borders/centre), framing resizing.
I dedicate this photo to my dear Gayle (gaylen54), I don't know if she will like the picture but I am more than sure she would enjoy a walk through this lovely old town. One day soon, I hope ;)
regards to everyone as well! have a great weekend :))))

Nice photo Marija. Very calm atmosphere that you created / captured.

Beautiful photo and a beautiful place Marija. You captured it very nice...and a good eye for detail...the frame colour is coming back in the houses...clever girl you're ;-)
Have a wonderful weekend you both.

Take care,

Jos

Beautiful city picture, Marija, showing the beauty of this town. I really like your point of view that really shows the narrowness of the street. You manage to get some good light which is not obvious in those narrow street. Very well done and Gayle will love it I am certain!

P.S. Good to see you again as I have missed your beautiful pictures and your presence to the site. Welcome back!!!

Authentic to the Ohrid autumn feeling of empty streets. I like the painted-like detail of window in the right upper corner. Great shot.

Oh! What a sweet surprise for Saturday morning! :))))))) Or ANY morning, for that matter! Not sure I would like it? You were right. I merely LOVE it, Marija. I love that it's from Macedonia, and I love that you thought about me, and I love the mood of the photograph itself. We would call this an alleyway in Arkansas, but it's considered a street here? So much I have left to learn about this world, and so little time! :)

Wouldn't it be fun to be friends outside this cyberworld?

You're so special to me. Thank you for this beautiful dedication, Marija. :)

Love,
Gayle

Give an extra kiss & hug to Nadia for me today!

Hello Marija, This is excellent. I love the texture of this. You have rendered the street very well...We feel we are there. It gives me an idea to do some PP on a shot I took which did not turn out quite like this. TFS, Marie-José

very nice POV maria :)
well composed shot, i like the perspective

points added :)

Very nice architectural shot, Mare, congratulations! I usually take a bunch of photos like this while I am on some trip, and usually find them not interesting, but this one is great! Composition is excellens, I see you were paying attention to the lines coming out of the corner, and to the leading diagonal lines. But adding those people at the lower 3rd was excellent idea.
Great work, TFS! Regards
Robert

Hi Marija! Your composition is strong as usually. Were you ever an artist?

Great scene and a beautiful looking street. I like the colors although I don't care for the color color in the sky. Maybe you painted because it was too white?

Cool shot though. Hope to see you online soon. :)

I like the pov and the soft-tone colours and sharp details in this picture, Marija. It has a nice and pleasant mood. Well done and TFS.

Best regards,

Don

I had missed this one! Great composition. I like how you put the window in the top corner. Well balanced light as well, considering the conditions. Great job!

Best wishes for 2006!

Hi Marija,
Very nice image. These narrow streets are something that we really miss in North America, they add so much to a city's character, although I don't know from a security point of view what is like to walk in one of these narrow, dimly lit streets.

Very nice shot Marija. Simple composition, just a street, but graphical effect is very good. I like it very much...

Hi Marija, Good composition showing the sort of streetscape in this city. Good textures especially the paving stones. Very different to many places which makes it interesting to see on TL. Murray.
