Hi Luciana, excellant colors and contrast here. The greens are very....luscious...healthy...rich. Very interesting piece of landscape with all the layers and curves. Excellant view! Composition is just super as is the detail. Great shooting Luciana and thanks for sharing this!

Nice rythms and patterns created with the "steps" of the earth. Great balance and composition with the steps going down diagonally across the shot, the colors are rich and natural, and the lighting is really beautiful. I can tell this was near the evening. Nice warm tones overall and great detail and clarity. The placement of the tree at the bottom right works well, and it pops out against the green and brown. It looks so peaceful. TFS!

Reminds me of the rice terraces of Asia, as Hans has mentioned! Beautifully composed and metered, the eye is led up the tiered terraces - it works very well indeed.

This normally would not be an interesting shot, but the trees with the white flowers makes is SO interesting! The position, the contrast is SO nice, adding a flare and a dimension to this shot! Very nice Luci!

Que imagem espectacular!Parece um postal,os antigos aproveitavam cada bocadinho da terra para a agricultura e estes socalcos são disso um excelente exemplo.
Fica bem,

Una belleza como se ven esas terrazas verdes, me gusta como has encuadrado, acentuando mas la sensacion de descenso hacia la izquierda. Te felicito.
