安ietna kompozycja, pi瘯nie pod鈍ietlone i wyeksponowane. Jako嗆 no c騜 skan wszystko wyja郾ia, ale i tak jak na skan to jako嗆 i zachowanie szczeg馧闚 w detalu na wysokim poziomie. Drugi plan - dla mnie boski lubi� takie zestawienia.

Good morning Jozef.
the trees of the scene as covered from the snow looks like dancers,as dancing on the hoarfrost Mt.I like the beautiful scenery as the warm light as falling on it.

Have a good day,Danos

Czesc Jozef,
urocza zimowa kompozycja. Bardzo ciekawa gra swiatla i cienia ktora z bialo czarnego widoku czyni trojwymiarowy obraz. Pierwszy plac interesujaco odcina sie od tla ktore wydaje sie rowniez bardzo ciekawe.
Znakomicie wypatrzone, gratulacje,
M
