Photographer’s Note
Here is a volcanic place where is located in margin of the "Dasht-e Kavir" or "Great Salt Desert" where is a large desert laying in the middle of the Iranian Plateau.
After driving almost 150~160 Km from Tehran to Qom and then towards Kashan,you will find this place.
This is not an active volcano,and I think the place is young like the "Damavand volcano peak" be almost 10,000 years old.
Welcome:)

Hi Mohammad,
an amazing landscape, photographed in very good quality. I like the colours of the volcanic ashes, contrasting with the green in the background. Nice, but hot to walk around there, I think.
Compliments, Chris

Hi Mohammad,
The variuos shades of colours are so strange on this desolate landscape, it almost looks like something on another planet. An interesting shot with nice textures.

Bonsoir, mon ami Mohammad,
Une photo étonnante et intéressante géologiquement. Il n'était pas facile de rendre aussi bien cette curiosité des mouvements de la Terre.
Les couleurs sont superbes et la note très intéressante.

Hello Mohammad E Hesamian,
Thanks for sharing and note, that is really usefull for me ;D
About POV, IMHO - 1/3 from the top you should cut, just hide that part in the browser, you see that, that POV will be without end.

Hi Mohammad,
Stunning capture over striking landscape. The mountains in foreground look like large walrus family resting under the sun. The strip of greenish muggles is a great detail that present a unique feature to this desert.
Different layers of colours is very attractive.

Belle photo de ces roches volcaniques qui sont bien lissée par le vent et l' eau.
Jolies couleurs et bonne netteté,la partie avant prise seule et agrandie pourrait faire croire a des montagnes.Votre prise est superbe et la profondeur de champs est bonne.
Amitiés Thomas

Hi M,
exquisite place and great capture. The quality of your shot is superb. Well saturated and clear. I like to see the rock formation in the foreground in its brownish tones contrasting with the emptiness of the background. Very well done!

Nice natural combination of shapes and warm colors. POV with hills in the foreground and flat land in the back gives pleasant visual impact.

Bonjour Mohammad,
le rouge de ces montagnes m'a toujours intrigué et en tous cas, séduit.
Il est drôle de voir cette vallée s'étendre entre ces deux chaines de montagnes qui s'arr^rtent assez brutalement.
Peut-être qu'un cadrage un peu plus haut eut été plus judicieux.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Mohammad,
I love the beautiful and stark colors and textures ... wonderful vast meditative emptiness .. I wish I had either more of or none of the distant ridge in the composition .. very nice image.
take care,

Hi Mohammad,
Fantastic landscape. The different metalic tones of browm in the foreground are very atractive. The composition is nice, but maybe having the mountains on the background included would create even more deph of field...

Hello Mohammad, I have seen this place from the bus.
It is a gorgeous place ! In other countries it could be a national park or a protected area for tourism.
The colors of the rock are fantastic.
Unfortunately the bus could not stop, as it was going from Tehran to Esfahan.
Thank you for showing it !
Regards Stefano
