[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The rocks outline the path to and across the river. In Nepal buses often forge the rivers in their way to villages. The unpaved road is long and winding, full of giant boulders. The bus often sank deep into mud. Everyone jumped off and put rocks under the wheels, and off we would go again. Most of the way, we had 3 buses helping each other. The roof was filled with bags, goats, sheep, and people, the aisle was solid grain sacks.

Hello Gloria !
That might be a wonderful trip! An adventure !
Magnificent scenery , well captured!
I also liked the tilt image in that shot!
TFS.
A Brazilian hug,
Nivaldo :-)

Hi Gloria,
the POV and subject are fascinating in their own right. Though it seems a bit tilted it actually looks like the tilt may work - in a sense, conveying the bumpy nature of the approach to this place.
Personally though, looking at the mid-background i think it could perhaps have been sharper (with perhaps a 1 stop lower exposure). just my thoughts :-)

Best regards, Daniel.

Nicely composed. Nice colours and sharp details. A good POV on that try to cross the river. You have captured it very well with excellent details.
Best wishes,
Achim
