Description
Peaceful sunset with delicious pearly tones over the Valaam Island, Northern Russia.
This image is perfectly going with accompany of the beautiful song.
Traditional Russian song "Evening bell" is a brilliant translation into Russian of the poem "Those Evening Bells" of Thomas Moore. The author of the translation into Russian was a Russian poet, contemporary of Alexander Pushkin, Ivan Kozlov.
Listen to this beautiful song with the genial Ivan Rebroff performance: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLg0oRC4lUA&feature=related
There are many of singers who perform this famous Russian song, I love also this version by Boris Shtokolov (also you can see the video of Valaam Island there): www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QtcelrSDeA&feature=related

Superb composition, Jenny! I love the clouds and sky look and the serenity of the water, but what stands out are the elements in the shot that are silhouetted against the color. Awesome job and thanks much for sharing!

Thank you, Xueling! Great you can see the person's silhouette, luckily this man didnt move, otherwise with long exposure it would be the blurry spot :-)
