Interesting shot, Vera! The texture of the rocks is very similar to the surrounding cliffs of Lake Gizhgit in the Baksan Gorge area of Kabardino-Balkaria.

Andrey Romanov,

Well, our Mother Earth is similar in places all over the world. Roughly the same geology is found throughout Central Asia and beyond. Thank you very much, Andrey, for your attention to the photo and your comment.

Zan Zanzib,
Good photo,
I'm a little tired of endless people walking against a backdrop,
but this shot stands out, more interesting than many – the background is rich,
with a variety of echoes and details, light accents and reflections.
It's not surprising, there's a method of portraiture with a short focal length, for example, 35mm, close-up against the backdrop of an evening city. And there, the importance of the surroundings plays a key role. Honestly, this is an appliqué; the person is cut out of black paper with scissors and pasted in. Simple. And we don't look for easy ways.

Vadim Bogdanov,
Thank you. Everyone seems tired of people walking endlessly against a backdrop. But at the same time, no one can resist the temptation of seeing the various plays of light and shadow and the person walking against the backdrop. And your hand just reaches out… )))
I have them too, but honestly, I try to restrain myself… it doesn't always work.

It's just time to introduce this as a separate genre, like landscape, portrait, endlessly walking people...))

Pablo Ko.,
Reminded me of "War with the Newts"
And I like these chubriks, even if they're one-eyed...)

The car's hood is strewn with rain pearls, if I'm not mistaken...

Troitsky Andrey,
Oleg Grigoriev, You're mistaken...)
I see. It looks a lot like hydrophobic beading; I did something similar this year.

Interesting picture, interesting effect)
NMV, if it weren't for your shadow (and no one else's)
it would be even better...

Perhaps, but then it would be a different angle. The sun is behind me...

I understand,
there are tripods, and also small clamps that can be attached to handrails, railings, benches, branches, all sorts of metal things...
They're small, lightweight, and easy to carry in your pocket.

Good afternoon. I think it's perfectly fine, but intuitively, I'd like to tone down the light on the burlap a bit... it would enhance the dramatic element of the shot and the viewer's experience... Thank you.
