The color version of this photograph was one of the first one I published in WordPress, a place near Imata, a place that was just for me because it’s outside the touristic places and at 4185 meters above the sea level (13 730 feet) there aren’t so many people going to there.
In such places you can feel a peace in part beautiful and in part lethal, something similar to climb without equipment I guess, you’re not seeing the nature but also fighting to don’t be surpassed by it (in this case the loneliness in the cold of the season)
nearer my god, to thee… etc… except, that looks like a realistic portrayal of some place hotter :D
I’m just kidding you, Francis… as always, it is a beautiful image.. and even as I say that I feel like a hypocrite.. there are such beautiful places here too and we look upon them with blind eyes and do not really see… it takes an “outsider’s” viewpoint to see beauty there.. just as you have done here..
To my own countrymen our country looks stale, but if you looked at it, you’d find much of it beautiful..
Thanks for your fresh eyes, my friend, even while looking at your own country..
I understand you perfectly, here people seems to just find beauty in (and they are beautiful as well) French valleys, but they consider the highlands a kind of cold desert… So many places in India I’d loved to see… Thanks Tejaswi, take care.
I like the drama of the landscape and also the magnificent sky.
Yes, it was an unforgettable sunset ^_^
I like this photo so much better in black in white….it emphasizes the ruggedness of the terrain and ultimately, the drama.
I’m familiar with this sort of drama, but fortunately, I didn’t have to face it alone :)
Me neither in this occasion, and I’m happy to have shared it ^_^ (despite the risk of the night, cold and dogs :S)
This photo is amazing @Francis!! Bravo!! <3
Thank you dear hadorable ^_^!!!
This black and white, and the other two series of Imata… are all very beautiful, Francis. You have a way with light and beauty. I am grateful for what we share.
Me too. I’m grateful those memories find a person like you, with heart and soul to appreciate it, so in a certain way those photographs, those landscapes, were waiting for you. We are fortunate, I always have joy seeing the forests of Montreal, and the quality to tell stories of its light :-)
Hi Francis, Would it be all right to use this image in my blog for a poem, and I’ll be sure to link the photo to your blog?
Hi Rose! that would be nice I think :P go ahead ;-)
Thanks dear Francis! It will be about a day before I’m finished with the poem. Busy at work. But thank you so much :)
You’re welcome, it doesn’t matter the time, but the surprise, thanks for think in one of my images for your art ^_^
xo
:$
Thank you for the detail dear R☺se
Beautiful gesture by Rose ^_^
Excellent shot…the composition of wall and cloud is stunning. How tall is that wall? Is it knee high or several men high? It looks almost a frozen wave of time.
Thank you, Kim. Hoping everything is fine n_n taking advantage of your comment I am visiting you. : )
