George Black   {K:101993} 8/25/2005
An unusual image. It seems to suggest something much more ominous than no swimming. I think that is because of the dramatic contrast of light and dark. The exposure is quite amazing--so difficult to render those extremes of light and dark.

Best wishes,
--George


Omnia Khalil   {K:4531} 8/25/2005

Sameh Odeh   {K:4717} 8/25/2005
This photo has some meanings,i want to make sure that i get that,does the black flag prevent swiming or it means something bad happend that day ...
Best wishes...


Salvador María Lozada   {K:17186} 8/25/2005
wONDERFUL SKY WITH MYSTERIOUS BLAC FIGURES CREATING
A SINGULAR, ALMOST ABSTRACT AND CRYPTIC ATMOSPHERE. IT SUGGESTS THE ILLUSTRATION OF A SCIENCE FICTION STORY.
A VERY NICE SHOT.
CONGRATS.

I always hated the black flag, it totally kills the fun :)
Nice composition Galal, and the men leaving the beach is a good combination with the black flag,
very well seen and captured,
Regards,


Susie OConnor   {K:34798} 8/25/2005
Another beautiful landscape Galal. The people give it a sense of enormity. The sky is beautiful and the sentiment one known to many I would suppose.

Beautiful sunrise Galal & great silhouettes. can you explain what the Black Flag is.
Cheers Al.


Galal El Missary   {K:84245} 8/26/2005
Thanks Alison for the nicely comment .

In Egypt they put a flag beside each Beach to indecate the SEA status at that day

White : Its allow to swim
Red : its allow to swim but with care
Black : swimming is not allowed

Best wishes


Alison Webb   {K:2628} 8/26/2005
Thank you for explaining that, in Australia we have a similar thing, we have 2 flags put in the area that is safest & you must swim in the area between those flags.
Cheers Al.

Nice sharp silhouettes and lovely warm light - very pleasing.


Mary Brown   {K:68627} 8/30/2005
I can see the disappointment of the would be swimmers in their body posture. Wonderful silouettes against the great sky. I like the positioning of the sun.
