-walking down to the lake- Photo

Photographer’s Note

A mayan girl in the street of Panajachel walking down to the lake Atitlan.
Unfortunally this village is called today "Gringo tenango" because of the too important precense of strangers.

Hi Patrick, beautifully captured. I like the different depth of colours that you have presented incorporating the brown against the lovely sky. The fact that you have captured someone walking down the path adds to the overall composition. Beautifully presented with a great point of view and excellent tonal colours. Well done.
regards

Hi Howe,

Texture… Colors and great depth in your frame. Unusual colors on stones (on road too) adds value to your frame. I didn’t forget beautiful lake and mountains with cloudy sky at background. Wonderful as your other Guatemala photographs. Congratulations,

Best Regards,

Parbo

Bonjour Patrick,
sympa cette vue de village avec cette fille qui dévale la pente, par contre il est dommage que ce village change par la présence des étrangers...
Je ne pense pas que ce soient aux villageois de s'habituer aux étrangers, mais le contraire.
Cette composition me rappelle ma vue de Cuzco qui était également en descente et avec la présence du fil électrique.
Bonne journée
Philippe

Bonjour Patrick,
Magnifiques couleurs et composition excellente. Cette vue prise d'une petite hauteur donne de l'ampleur à ce village et au paysage qui l'entoure.
Amitiés

Lot of details with a fine perspective on the road and the lady walking down, a fine colorbalancing with a soft feel, giving a warm mood, you had a good blue sky textured with the white clouds, a beautiful shot Patrick.
