Глядя на первое фото, появляется тревожность и умиротворение одновременно. Неспокойная река между густой растительности, смотрится невероятной, захватывающей и очень живописной. Выезжая в отпуск на море, я считаю, будет не лишним посетить и реки, получим много разных эмоций, а какие удачные фотографии получатся.
Шумит Арагва предо мною.
Мне грустно и легко; печаль моя светла;
Печаль моя полна тобою,
Тобой, одной тобой… Унынья моего
Ничто не мучит, не тревожит,
И сердце вновь горит и любит — оттого,
Что не любить оно не может.
1829 г. А.С. Пушкин
