Katherine,
Beautiful, with the light and the clouds. It looks more like a painting than a picture.
Did you modify something on the picture? Colours, highlights? Anyway, I like it!

Hi Katherine,

Wondrous sky .. it has a powerful interaction with the brightness and contrast of the Earth .. a thought provoking framing for these houses .. very nice. take care, John

Hi Katherine,
It's quite rare to see your country here, so this is a good addition to the gallery, the houses style is interesting and the cloudy weather allows some special lighgt here, even though as a result some colors seem a bit strange.
Have a nice day JY

Dear Katherine, nicely composed with nature's greens flowing into the cottage structure with a dramatic sky backdrop. Thanks for sharing.

Я тут поняла, что ничего не знаю про Казахстан, кроме школьных истин: Тенге, нефть, Алма-Ата) Посвятила вечер своему любимому хобби - чтению атласов)))
Это снято в пригороде, а какие сами города: дома малоэтажные или высотные, сколько полос на дорогах, именами кого обычно называют улицы или просто нумеруют? Чем развлекаются люди: музеями или фитнес-клубами и видела ли ты снежного барса?:)
И ещё-распустились ли у вас уже тюльпаны?
Вот такой коммент))))hope you like it:)
