Vasilis,
This is a great shot of this symbol of was with a dove of peace painted on it. Your composition is great showing the tank from an angle that creates depth and direction. The lighting and colors are fine as is the photo's sharpness.
TFS,
Asa

Geia sou dear Vasilis, what a fantastic subject. This tank is fascinating and I really wonder about its origins. The rust colours are so attractive, the image is nice an sharp and you have composed the shot well, positioning the tank beautifully within the frame. TFS and I wish you a good day, Lisa

Bonjour Vasilis,

Bientôt il sera envahi par la végétation. Il semble encore garder la côte contre les touristes envahisseurs.Belle composition.

Amicalement

Davvero un bel colpo!

hi Vasilis
kazen se je iztekla in zato jaz ponovno pišem odgovore.
odgovore pišem po vrsti, kakor so prihajali. hvala za zaupanje, dragi Vasilis.
dobra ideja in zelo dobra realizacija! zelo zanimivi ostanki, verjetno iz 2. svetovne vojne? lepo!
TFS! čestitam!
s spoštovanjem, vojko

ciao Vasilis,
particolare questo scatto con il carro armato a pochi metri dalla costa a testimoniare dei brutti giorni.
Ottimo e preciso lo scatto con una bella resa cromatica,
un caro saluto

Βασίλη καλημέρα,
το εύρημά σου πραγματι αξιοπερίεργο,σε αυτή την όμορφη παραλία να υπάρχει το εγκαταλελειμμένο άρμα.Η Βόρεια αυτή παραλία της Λήμνου δεν ενδείκνυται για αποβατικές επιχειρήσεις,και αναρωτιέμαι πως και δεν το απομάκρυναν από κει.Μπορεί όμως να είναι και στόχος σε κανένα πεδίο βολής τους Χειμερινούς μήνες,όπως ήταν την δεκαετία του '70-'80 ήταν ο χώρος έξω από το Διαπόρι,ήταν πεδίο βολής Πυροβολικού.

Σε χαιρετώ,Δάνος

Hello Vasilis,

I always saw tanks in good condition in museums about the landing in Normandy, this composition is beautiful, the advanced state of rust is a measure of time, it blends into the landscape, and seems harmless,

best regards,
Valerie.

Vasilis

An interesting shot. The pov is good as it shows the tank looking out to sea and the colours are excellent in strong sunlight. The tank appears to be very well camouflaged for the terrain.

Hi Vasilis
this is something we don't see too often here on TE.
and who'd have thought this would be in Greece?
i think i can even see a beach to the far left!
wonderful contrasts
Cheers
