At Tourkikos Gialos, a photo from Lesvos, North Aegean

Photographer's Note

The old port and the castle view from the beach with the name Tourkikos Gialos (Turkish seashore) at the left of the castle.
Myrina is the "Chora" capital of Lemnos Island with the main port and two districts between her castle.
Romeikos Gialos (Ρωμαίικος Γιαλός): North of the castle is one of the two main districts of the city with magnificent neoclassical mansions, all built in the second half of the 19th century. It was the Greek quarter years of Ottoman rule and was named as opposed to the Turkish Yialos, located east of the castle and the place where the Turks lived. These houses testify to the power and wealth of the inhabitants of Lemnos who worked as traders in the cosmopolitan centers of the season, Odessa, Trieste and Alexandria.

Bonjour Vasilis

J'aime beaucoup l'atmosphère qui se dégage de cette photo. Probablement à cause de l'heure du jour ou elle fut prise et la lumière de fin de journée.

Amicalement

Serge

Ciao Vasilis,
bella immagine di un posto che sembra essere altrettanto bello.
La composizione è ben curata con l'inserimento dell'albero a sinistra e della palma e lampione a destra.
La luce è ben gestita rendendo l'atmosfera molto romantica.

Well done!

Hi Vasilis

Excellent shot of this beautiful location. I think I could sit on those seats for a long time, watching the day go by. I can smell the sea. Fantastic composition.

Hi Vasilis,
A beautiful view with superb colours from the early morning light. A certain feeling of an old hand coloured picture post card, in the most positive sense, of course. A very fine image!
Kind regards
Gunnar

Βασίλη καλημέρα,
εξαιρετικός ο απογευματινός φωτισμός του Τούρκικου Γιαλού,με τα παγκάκια να έχουν τοποθετηθεί σοφά σ΄ αυτή την θέση για να ρομαντζάρει κάποιος αυτή την όμορφη θέα.Η παραλία φαίνεται έρημη φαντάζομαι να είανι αργά το απόγευμα.

Σε χαιρετώ,Δάνος

ciao Vasilis,
una perfetta inquadratura con il promontorio inquadrato tra la palma e l'albero.
Una buona gestione della luce in PP rende molto gradevole lo scatto con le panchine e il lampione in FG.
saluti

Hi Vasilis
