Hi Juan

It looks like more than just a polariser on the sky - some PP work as well?

Good composition, nice low placement of your subject in the frame.

The colours are superb and the balance between man and nature (with human construction falling apart and nature winning the day) is really fabulous

Hi Juan

Very good and rich in splendid photos portfolio you have..
This one is not an exception..
very good angle..calm colors..and great sky..

maybe the part of the tree from the left will be better to crop...

Hi Juan, excellent work and compo here! Love the color. I found two things that help with blue in the sky and that's using my ND Grad Blue from Cokin along with always having the sun behind me. For some reason, this works well with my 350D Canon.

Nice use of the polariser and good PP work Juan. The cactus came up a little dark but that just may be clod shadows. Well composed and good colour. TFS,
David

Hi Juan,

simple but effective with a very beautiful sky. The cactus seems a little dark.

The low viewpoint is very good to include the foreground cactus which helps to balance the composition. I think some local lighting of the cactus would be good to ensure it does not hold too much of the viewer's attention.

Hello JJ,
A rugged landscape that conveys a feeling of loneliness!
Good point of view looking up, well balanced composition with fine details...
Good feeling of depth and attractive colours!
Greetings,
