Wonderful warm early morning light here Lucie, and the quality of the light is the key to the success of this image (as I'm sure you know).
Good composition too, with the off-centre placement of the ger, although the shadow in the bottom left corner is a little heavy; I would have liked the details there, especially the dog, to be more visible. Can't have everything!
This is a great shot, well done.

Cheers,
Ben

Great shot Lucie. I really like light here, and there's much interesting detail in the yurt with its orange door frame and attendant guard dog. The low clouds provide good atmosphere and seem to accentuate Mongolia's open flat vastness. An excellent composition. Regards,
Ryno

Wonderful story Lucie! I have also been overwhelmed with the hospitality and friendliness of people when travelling, which really puts our western culture to shame. It's times like those that your soul opens up to a new world of possibility and understanding. Great photo too!

Hello, Lucie--
NIce work here, the lighting was terrific, and the composition is nice as well, although i think that if you had managed to find a way to pull the cloud above the roof of the ger it would be a little bit stronger.
Thanks!

Hello Lucie,

Ces habitats sont impressionnants de par l'éloignement par rapport à la "civilisation" ! J'aime beaucoup les couleurs de ton cliché ! La porte verte contraste magnifiquement avec le reste de l'image ! Le flou de l'arrière plan contribue à la réussite de cette image !
Bravo !

A+

Beautiful light here once again. It's a pity the dog is not more visible because he is a great element to give some life to this one. It's like to see a "guardian angel" in the middle of the desert. I guess these hotels really have some special features and this doorman is really original. Nice red frame around that green door.

Needless to shower you with the compliments this photo deserves as so many have done so before me!

You have captured a strange kind of intensity in the colours and contrast as the dog by the door appeared only as a blob to me at first. I really had to keep on looking at it to discover it. Of course now that I've seen it I wonder how I could have missed it in the first place.

Sounds like you had quite a trip and that you managed to see much more than the big city lights *lol*
Imagine complete darkness, no signs, just dust road (if you can actually call it a road) and nothing around us.
Sure sounds like Heaven to me!

Any tips, suggestions, thoughts for someone who's seriously thinking of getting lost in that region of the world?

TFS! And all the best,
Julia
