Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #276 'Dark Waters'

'Dark Waters'

Looks like dark soil, eh? But it's not soil at all. It is surface of the water covered with waterlilies. The reflection of the sun is the only element telling us it is water down there. I found this natural effect to be really interesting. For this reason, I included this photograph in my collection. The seventies? It easily may be so. Why not? :)

The distance of tonalities is another thing to point out. The huge dark area is covered with small patches of light-toned waterlilies, whose colour ranges from green, orange, peach and yellow. All of them are washed out. The weakness of colour is what makes it very pleasant to the eye, especially against the big dark mass. Notice that the reflection of the sun is composed exactly in the lower right golden ration point of the square frame. Also, it is worth mentioning that its size very well matches the overall darkness of the image.

In nature, there are so many details which we take for granted and don't think twice about them. We are often too closed inside of our own worlds, the ones existing solely in our minds, that we don't have the time to observe the real world around us. That one, too, might also be an illusion. But, that is another story.. :)

Enjoy! :)

It seems like light came from the hole which is present inside the soil but amazed to see that it is actually water and sun.

Sunlight consists of seven colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, ultraviolet). Each color has its own wavelength. The ability of light to penetrate air depends on its wavelength. The shorter the light waves the greater their power to penetrate the water.

Therefore, the red light will be absorbed at a depth of less than 20 meters, and after it is visible or invisible. This is where the darkness of red began to appear.

If there is a wounded and bloody diver at a depth of approximately 25 meters then it will look blood black instead of red because red is not able. Light orange color is absorbed at about 30 meters depth, after there is darkness of red then under it there is darkness of orange color. Yellow light absorbed at a depth of 50 meters. Green light is absorbed at about 100 meters depth. At a depth of 200 meters light blue is absorbed and so forth.

Thus, there is the darkness of the sun's chaya colors in the ocean in layers, which is the air of different colors. The darkness of the sea is increasing with the depths of the sea, until now the dense darkness that starts from a depth of more than 200 meters. At this time different temperatures start between warm air and cold air. In addition, at this depth there are deep cold waves. Then no light at all at a depth of more than 1000 meters.

Associated with the depth of darkness in the depths of the ocean, the fishermen find that light is inhaled even in clear climates, that is, the sloping seabed and the white sand that change precisely, until it is hidden entirely with increasing depth, and that the ray of light is inversely proportional to the increase depth. The light we see from the picture above, comes from the sun and is absorbed by clouds, which only radiate from the light, which produces a layer of darkness beneath the clouds.

This is the first layer of darkness. Then collecting light towards the surface of the ocean, this light is reflected by the surface of the wave that gives the effect of glistening. From here it can be seen that there are waves, reflections depending on the angular sharpness of the waves. Therefore, the waves reflect light and also cause darkness.

I immediately understood what it was. I have often seen such dark waters. I was engaged in fishing from the childhood. No, I'm not an active marketer of fish persistence, I liked the process of catching. It's such a time when you have absolute silence. You are on the same level with your thoughts and, of course, on one with mosquitoes-crucibles. But this is a side effect of catching fish on the river. When you were on such fishing - It means that you are master of civilization and enjoy it. It is such a way of relocation that helps to cope with many life problems.

You are absolutely right. We are surrounded by many beautiful natural details. We come across this almost every day. But we are used to perceive this as something ordinary. We do not pay attention to beautiful things. We are striving for a nonexistent ideal. But the wisdom of life says: "that the most valuable things in our life are always close to us." I think that around us there is a lot of beauty. But not all of us are able to see this.

I appreciate your point of view. I liked the photo, thank you!

An honor can read this post @valimin The color of dark wates that look with full meaning Darkness is illuminated with the light of prosperity and water as my thirst release is very fond of that color, which becomes an extraordinary photo with no authenticity References taken in this post, if seen indeed the photo has been long but this keeps its authenticity, this is very extraordinary which can be the most beautiful collection.
The other interesting is full of figurative meaning that I take a conclusion with a meaningful light, a bterus's future undergoes a remarkable change in green that signifies a real prosperity while this oreng color is a light of power that we pass through with color hita symbolizes a joy.
Real life is a challenge that must be passed easily and not an illusion that we take for granted, there are so many who think in a story.
A very useful post Thank you @valimin
Hopefully what becomes an ideals should have an ease that can in creating a new inspiration to the fore will always accompany you.

We win together

See you on the top

You yourself do not know how right. Most often people are closed, their world, they have inside. They do not look at the beauty of this world. Such people always have their heads down and put on headphones, they are not interested in anything except their inner world and themselves. But if you look up, you can see what our world is wonderful and unusual.
The photo is really unusual, although it's hard not to understand that this is water. Continue in the same spirit!

This is water?? I am keep on staring and cannot realize still. Great point as conclusion of this post. If you didnt write it, I would here in the commnets for sure. :))
Through your art, you are doing some spiritual work, being aware or no, as you are helping people to realize our reality. That is also my aim in life. Have a good Sunday!

Nice thinking you shared here, everyone is too much busy in your life and they don't think about surrounding. If we observed the thing surrounding we really enjoy. The beauty of nature is taste if we observed and think about them.

Is it a painting or is it a photograph? I'm trying to decipher it for minutes. It seems unreal to be a photograph, but too perfect to have been painted.

Brilliant i must tell you, brilliant

Excellent way to take photos in a given angle and moment, it is irrelevant to see how you have the imagination even in writing so naturally and effectively on a simple, excellent image. Greetings.

Very interesting to see your words of a simple image and the contrasts that are generated by the angles of the photos, your passion for photography is rewarding because people like you there are minimal, for the talent of taking something tiny and turn it into something Special, greetings brother and continue like that.

Fantastic capture!
You need kind and peaceful heart and eyes to notice this wonderful view!

It is dark inside the water!
But their is something bright down their which is fighting with the darkness!

Our life is the same,when we are in bad things,bad habbits, when our heart become black, and we always think negative, then their is a little brightness that turns you, that make you realize the things you are doing are not good!
