The Symbol...
Posted by saeed (ahwaz, Iran) on 8 September 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
This is "Pol-e-Sefid"( or White Bridge) of Ahwaz... It is the Oldest bridge and one of the symbols of our city...

It's a beautiful bridge and your picture is quite atmospheric with the fog. Well seen and captured.

واقعا عمق تصویر و مه یا غبار موجود تو عکس حس خیلی خوبی رو منتقل میکنه، عکس خیلی خوبیه، راستی من در مورد فرهنگمون از حرف زدن و ... خسته شدم و دارم سعی می کنم که به چیزهای مثبت بیشتر فکر کنم ، ولی باز یه نکته ای تو عکس هست که واقعا تعجب کردم، این یادگاری ها رو در سمت چپ پل چجوری نوشتن؟ فکر کنم ارتفاع زیاد باشه؟

Strong and dynamic composition. Good idea to get out with the fog for this shot, it makes the image. Well done, as usual.

Hey Saeed this is a new direction for you... it's a great BW shot of civil engineering, great perspective and the looming fog is a bonus.

I can't say it any better than Observing (Mike) did. Your photography is getting better and better. The b&w treatment here really suits the picture.

shahab from Qazvin, Iran
Excellent work saeed!Great framing!Bravo man!
I have an idea to make this marvelous shot more mysterious,I think fading that part of under the bridge to white-in some processing- seems really suitable in here!

@shahab: So many thanks for your delightful and full of kind comment dear Shahab! and I do it as soon as possible to see the result.
