This is a nice one Mohammad,
Very good composition, and the reflection, and the depth, and the colours, Yes I like them all, this is realy a great photo, my compliments for it, very well seen.

A good subject for a variety of treatment. As the title suggests, the interest here is in the reflected sun just appearing through the clouds in the relfection. I still like the song even 35 years later.

Not only I love this photo, but I like also the title: A marvelous piece by The Beatles (maybe their best ballad)
...To be more precise concerning the shot, I like a lot your framing that gives an importance to the reflections of the sky in water. These shades of blue and green offer one special atmosphere to your composition : Although here we are in Iran, without the indication of the place, one would believe itself in Vietnam.
Beautiful work, Mohammad.

Good composition Mohammad, only the upper side is some overexposed. What about to try an horizontalization of picture ?

Terrific composition, Mohammad. I like the way the lines of the plants give depth to the shot. And the reflections give it an added beauty. Thanks for showing me a quite unexpected view of Iran.

Hi Mohammad,
you captured a beautiful reflection in this rice field, I like the pattern of the little plant in the water. Very well done!

Very nicely composed. The light is perfect in rendering the reflections on the water.

very nice rice field shot here, the plantation is really in good order and the clouds reflected is nice too, very good background scenery too, great work

Well done

jhm (211736) 2004-07-24 10:57

Lovely lines in this image, the green rice and the reflections are very splendid, well seen Mohammad!

Again a fine rice field composition, Mohammad. The foreground is dominated by the rhythmic pattern of the plants and by the reflection. The alignment of the rice plants also creates a good depth. Towards the back there are some exposure issues that make me wonder whether b&w might have been an interesting alternate option to "hide" them. Very nice and thanks for continuing to show everybody on TE the beauty of Iran.

Another beautiful one. Excellent reflections. Especially right here where the sun and clouds are really visible. I can see the previous shot in this shot. The hole in the clouds is clearly visible in the reflection. And I see the patterns in the field, too. But what a change in atmosphere. From almost apocalyptic to very calm and peaceful. The mountains in the distance vanish beautifully into the distance and the morning mist and light. Very well done. Oh, and now I have the song stuck in my head. :)

Wonderful cloud reflections in the rice paddies.

Great as the last, the capture of the sun in the warter reflextion is a good point in this composition, good lines in it to.

Hi Mohammad,

I like this photo with a great DOF.

Well done

The very last mountains have an aquamarine colour, very unusual, and it works well how the colour changese from the Fg right to these mountains. Very nice landscape, Mohammad

bertolucci (14052) 2004-07-25 13:22

The same field but an entirely different pic, Mohammad. And I like it very much. The focus is now on the field and its delightful organic patterns and reflections are great,they're rendered very well. And it's special how it seems that the sun is going up ...in the field itself. Very fine & poetic job.
With respect, from Rotterdam, Bert.

Sky and ground two elements linked in a vertical and graphic reflexion. Great work

Jeppe (18654) 2004-07-25 14:48

Beautiful... very beautiful image Mohammad.
Excellent colorful composition and (although it is a high image, it would not dare to cut only a millimeter).
Great work!

merpb (2001) 2004-10-15 13:42

Great image Mohammad, I love the detail in the water so much I would have cropped the top 1.5 inches off (but then I only do B&W).
The receeding lines of plants makes a great lead in, and the reflections in the lower 3rd, so full of detail are perfectly placed to 1st engage the eye and then to allow it to wander upwards.
