Allô Gaetano!
Magnifique photo et superbes couleurs dans la poussière ou la brume. On dirait une autre tour de Pise mais je ne crois pas qu'elle soit réellement penchée.
Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de note.
Félicitations!...

Wow!! Nice photo - I love the fog and colours!! Reminds me of a slightly evil ancient civilization. If only there was some way to make the sky less blue and the reds more prominent. Might be fun to play around in photoshop. Anyways, great job! :D

Nicely done with the fog and pinkish color of the landscape and atmosphere. You are missing a note, and therefore I don't know what this picture represents or is all about.

Love it. The swirling sand and the lighting is very atmospheric. The palm trees are so perfect they are almost caricatures. Pity you chose not to leave a note to tell us about this interesting place.

Beautiful mist and colors. The shapes of the tower and the palms are very nice
