Sevr sunset, a photo from Makkah, East

Photographer's Note

Arabistan'dan üçüncü fotoğraf... Sevr dağının zirvesinde günbatımı... Dağın yüksekliği yaklaşık 759 metre ve Kaba'ye uzaklığı yaklaşık 3 kilometre... Bu dağın özelliği ashabın büyük çoğunluğunun Medine'ye göçmesinin ardından hicrete karar veren Resul-ü Ekrem Hz. Ebubekir'le birlikte gece yarısı evinden yola çıkarak Sevr dağına ulaştı ve buradaki bir mağarada gizlendiler.
Çoğumuzun duyduğu mağaranın önünün örümcek ağıyla kaplanması hadisesi burada vuku buldu.

Sevr Mountain;
Mt. Sevr is 759 meters high in Mecca. The Sevr cave is here.
They decided to immigrate from Mecca to Medina. Koreish leaders learnt that and wanted to kill Hz. Mohammed (SAV) in order to prevent the spreading of Islam in Medina. They have selected a person from each family and sent these people to kill Hz. Mohammed (SAV). But, Hz. Mohammed (SAV) learnt this event and went to his way to Medina with Hz. Ebu Bekir. Hz. Mohammed (SAV) and Hz. Ebu Bekir hidden in Sevr cave for 3 days.

jwmunro (286) 2008-04-05 12:57

Hello Ahmet -

This is a very nice image. This is a different FG element and really makes the image work. I took this image over to PS to take a further look. I opened the shadows a touch with the S&H tool to just open a ramp up to the camel and handler. I think it looks a touch better, but that is just subjective. I think you did a good job in the presentation. Well done!

Thank you for sharing.

C'est une grande photo par sa qualité et son sujet parfaitement traité.
Excellente lumière parfaitement maîtrisée.
Et puis, ces pierres sur la droite ressemblent à une tête d'homme.
Bravo !

jafadabret (56501) 2008-04-06 2:11

Ahmet, c'est une belle composition pour nous faire rêver de voyage dans des pays où le chameau est toujours un moyen de locomotion. Le ciel est fabuleux et l'animal en silhouette s'en détache de belle façon.

The camel makes a wonderful silhouette agaist the sunset. The white clothing of the rider is enough to make details stand out. Well done

Merhaba Ahmet,
very nice this shot with the silhouette of the camel and her driver.The subdued light, with the sun still painting pastoral colors in the clouds makes this a memorable shot.Informative your note.

Regards,Danos

josepmarin (59385) 2008-04-06 11:20

Merhaba Ahmet,
It is a wonderful scene, with a great sunset that offers us a weak light and a few very soft colors in perfectly cross-light. The camel and the man adds a touch of life in the middle of these rocks and stand out finely on the blue sky.
It is a great work, very clean and very attractivly.
Friendly regards,
Josep

Olá Ahmet, congratulations on your 201th post ;-) This is a marvellous capture against the sunset. Good composition of silhouettes against the colorful painting in the sky. I see the Camel posing, but not him ;-) The sun makes a wonderful effect shinning in the background.
Have a good week,

Hello Ahmet,

You have a really beautiful gallery and this image reflects perfectly this global quality.
This light and shadow playing is very good managed. Your composition is very well structured with this rock who close the border.
Very good work, congratulation !

Regards,
Damien.

Waylim (25436) 2008-04-08 9:08

Ahmet,
Yet another wonderful image. The rock and camel look like they are just silhoutte but upon looking closer I can actullay see some detail in them. Wonderful soft but visible layers of mountains and hills in the distant horizon. The color of the sunset and sky so wonderfully balanced, with just enough saturation and contrast to make this a brilliant and marvellous sunset image yet very natural. I love it. Thanks so much for sharing. Oops I'm out of point. be back later

stego (24132) 2008-04-10 14:58

Merhaba Ahmet,
One doesn't need to know the story to feel a dense meditative moody atmosphere by looking at this wonderful image, but I am glad you told me about the historic and religious importance of the place. The silhouette of the rocks make a very nice framing to the sun, the man and his camel, whose silhouette combines nicely with the rocks. I like having some detail in the shadow and perceive a bit of the hilly lands below, something that is made possible by the admirable light management.
TFS, Selamlar, José.

Ahmet,
it seems to me that you did a complete pilgrimage visiting all the delicate moments of the early Islam. The image certainly gives a view of what Mohammed must seen back when hiding in the Sevr cave. The person and the dromedar as a slihouette against the setting sun is wonderful.
Peter
