About	You walk out on the high wire you're a dancer on thin ice you pay no heed to the danger and less to advice your footsteps are forbidden but with a knowledge of your sin you throw your love to all the strangers and caution to the wind And you go dancing through doorways just to see what you will find leaving nothing to interfere with the crazy balance of your mind and when you finally reappear at the place where you came in you've thrown your love to all the strangers and caution to the wind It takes love over gold and mind over matter to do what you do that you must when the things that you hold can fall and be shattered or run through your fingers like dust... Lyrics by Dire Straits, "Love Over Gold" -------------------- dedicated to all who love and be loved in exchange... and to somebody who wishfully will find true love... -------------------- focal distance: 432mm eq.

excellent shot!
I am very glad to meet you... Perhaps I am going to Istanbul this summer, it will be great to contact you (leave me your phone/mob number to contact you before my arriving). My friends spent new year's eve in Istanbul and were very happy. I like to travel and these days I came back from Italy visited Rome, Piza, Napoli, Venetia...
Great self-portrait for portfolio (original & different from others - important)

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/17/2005

hopefully Theo, you are the first to mention my search for something, sometimes i feel so too, but i really do not want to put borders around my photography, anything should be possible, spontaneity is the real beauty in it, thanks a lot for kind words, all are appreciated..

THEODORE STAMOULIS {K:2507} 5/17/2005

Onur, you have a powerful portfolio. I think engineering has added a bit to your clear look :-)
My opinion is that you are searching for your photographic style and that you are on a good route.. i hope we meet one day.

Yours,
Theo

Yes, Onur you are right, its really my taste, also very meaningful and nice dedication:) hopefully...

best regards, Pia

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/15/2005

oh we call it jalosie in turkey, i think the word is transferred from French to Turkish, so i am the first to know :) learned a new word now :) i somehow did not want to crop the image, both are good to me, thank you Margaret!

Margaret Sturgess {K:49403} 5/15/2005

Onur I think this is wonderful, I love the tones and the silhouettes and their shadows fit the lyrics perfectly too. A really excellent composition. I wondered if cropping a bit and then cloning out the bits of kerb would make it more mysterious - what do you think
Margaret
Thank you very much for your comment - I have put up another shot to show the window blinds in normal light, without the sun and the illusion of the crossing

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/15/2005

many thanks for dedicate
it's really fantastic
i was listening to "coming back to life"...i never didn't hear it ... so beautiful...
i've heard only a few themes, most commons and the lp. wish you were here (excellent)...

see you and thanks for share.

ismael.

Joggie van Staden {K:41700} 5/14/2005

Thanks for the compliment Onur, I tend to disagree though regarding the portfolios - You have a specific perspective and approach to life and looking at the world around you. Although it is different (and very eye-opening and stimulating to myself) it is by no means inferior. I'm serious that I will study your work and learn. We dont have the same grandiose architecture in our country but I'm sure I will look with different eyes with what we have here. Kind regards and keep on sending those great images.
Joggie

serdar koc {K:577} 5/14/2005

Great capture

Laurie Gould {K:11942} 5/14/2005

I love the silhouettes here! The contrast between your subjects and the gold color in the ground is really wonderful.

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/13/2005

odtulu oldugumdan "hocam" hitabina cocuklugumdan beri alisigim, ondan yadirgamiyorum bilesin, yoksa hoca kim ben kim.. Carlo sunu anladim bir kez daha, hersey gibi fotograf da emek isi, resmen alin teri doktum bunlari cekerken ve sonrasinda. bak saat kac hala ayaktayim.. :) sagolasin..

Pankaj, i like the stair detail there, at least becuse its big enogh to be noticed as a stair, second it has a sharp shadow... thank you for the comment..

Pankaj Arora {K:3752} 5/13/2005

Wow!!!!!! And a big one!!!
I just wished that stair not to be there , slightly distracting in an otherwise perfect picture , but somehow i feel that inclusion was very deliberate..........anything u wd like to tell me abt it??

yasargun muslum {K:6647} 5/13/2005

sinan kesgin {K:130} 5/13/2005

seri gitgide güzellesiyor onur,cok begendim ellerine saglik.

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/13/2005

you are so kind Jeanette :)

by the way, I am sure some people who get jealous (so non-sense, abuse) rate images with 2 without writing any comments to stay anonymous, i am really sure because it happens to me most of the time. if somebody did so at the same time when you were adding your comment, in the next refreh you may see the image's rate is decreased.

Jeanette Hägglund {K:59855} 5/13/2005

Onur, i know how the colours can help a not so colourful inside, when sorrow are there!!! I hope your golden shot and post made you feel little better!

Warm salute/
Jeanette

Jeanette Hägglund {K:59855} 5/13/2005

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/13/2005

thank you Galal, you have a nice portfolio really..

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/13/2005

where were you, where is the new shot? yesterday was too bitter for me, i thought to place a dark, contrasted, grainy selfport. named "sorrow" but this was so optimistic (i need hope) that i could not help to delay...

i know you like gold/yellow and thought to get a comment sooner. rate is not important for me Jeanette, words are far more valuable than numbers... thank you, i'm glad you like it :)

Jeanette Hägglund {K:59855} 5/13/2005

I?m sorry....this rating thing are crazy, i rated this 7 but now it?s lower then it was before. I don?t understand!

Jeanette

Jeanette Hägglund {K:59855} 5/13/2005

Wow ONur, perfect composition, LOVELY gold colour and they, the couple, seems to have a very interesting discussion. A superb shot!!!!!!

Jeanette

Onur Özbakan {K:16763} 5/13/2005

Paul you are the one to get that detail, very good eye on that, like a tall M letter..

Paul Boocock {K:8314} 5/13/2005

Fabulous warm picture, perfect composition and exposure - I like the obvious interaction between the two people, the overlapping legs; I think that makes it so special.
Thanks for your kind comment.
