Hello Suleyman ,
This one is excellent too . We can see better the fantastic shapes of these outstanding mountains.They seems so impressive , with the cultivated area at their feet . I like a lot the game of light and shades on the fields ? Colorrs are splendid .
I add it to my theme .

Allô Suleyman!
Très jolie prise et merveilleuse formation rocheuse. Les rochers semblent avoir été lavés par la pluie pendant des siècle. Bonne gestion de l'éclairage entre ombre et lumière qui donne un superbe effet. Les couleurs sont merveilleuses et beau contraste avec le vert tendre printanier.
Bravo!... et toutes mes amitiés,
Emilius

Such fine detail seen in these mountains with the layers of minerals exposed, showing the years gone past and the after effects of erosion. Beautiful colors presented and displayed perfectly and with great clarity. It's like looking at two worlds here, one that look lifeless and the other teaming with life and expectations of life giving food. Your POV and DOF are stunning and very pleasing as always Suleyman. Great Job!!

It is a beautiful landscape and a good composition. In my opinion a bit oversaturated.
Also, the barracks at the bottom do not fit much with the resto f the image, that is very well composed and clean.

Hello Suleyman,
this is fantastic! This exquisite and suggestive view is captured at a very special moment, the sweet side afternoon light has a very fine and attractive quality. The way it plays with shadows on a large or smaller scale is amazing. Light and shadows dominate this frame, defining space, volume, shapes and textures. The tonal range is incredibly enriched, enhancing the variety and force of contrasts. And there comes the brilliant green patch to try to steal the scene, in vain. It's a wonder how you managed the light in all its diverse aspects, maintaining a superb clarity in the whole view. A magnificent picture, my friend, I could look at it for days. Congratulations and many thanks!
All the best, have a wonderful weekend,
Ourania

Merhaba Süleyman Bey,

Hi Suleyman,

I wonder what the birds one can spot there. But the rocks are very impressive from this wide angle. A bit similar like ones in Utah, with this red colour and smooth surface. Wonderful green filed.

Warm regrads

CLODO (24734) 2012-05-05 3:07

hi Suleyman

I like the different colored layers, the lateral sun giving shadows in the mountains and so the volume. The water erosion has been very important in this landscape!

CLODO

Hello Golus
A superb picture of landscape

Excellent sharpness and fine colors

holmertz (26980) 2012-05-06 11:47

Hello Süleyman,
This is an incredible composition, made possible by nature and farmers. The mountains have remarkable colours and their effect is enhanced by the superbly falling light.
A very memorable photo.
Kind regards,
Gert

Suppiluliuma (3843) 2012-05-06 23:10

The elephant feet-like rock formations are delightful as always, but here the green vegetation adds a new stunning element here.

My only nit-picking would be the position of the house which seems to be squeezed.

Selamlarımla,

Erdem

Ciao Suleyman,
Another great shot of this lovely place, continues to amaze me the geology of these mountains, here we can clearly see the stripes of growth and the net change of color, stunning the contrast between the colors, the light glows vividly green field cultivated, great shot and excellent quality...
my best regards,
Valter

Wow, a splendid shot !
well composed with these successive centers of interest, trees and little house at the FG, the brown and fluo green layers of cultures and this impressive colorful mountain that makes me think of Painted Desert in Arizona
Bravo
have a nice evening
Patrick

Merhaba Suleyman,
This landscape is amazing, I like the contrast between the green tones of the fields and the incredible tones of the rocks in the mountain.
The light and the shades increase the three-dimensional sense of the ensemble.
It is a beautiful work. Congrats!
Best regards,
Josep

Hello Sulreyman,
I love the textures and the shapes of this mountains. The green grass contrast perfect with the grey-red mountains.
The light and the shadows creates the perfect result.

Good evening Suleyman,
I find this one best in the series of landscape pic.'s from Davutoglan.
Fine light painted nature with marvelous multi-colors on hills.
managed a lovely shot.
Enjoy your weekend,
Ike

Seoonmie (97) 2012-05-19 9:27

Hi Suleyman! Your introduction says you shoot occasionally. With the examples you exhibit here you should clearly be shooting and showing the results a lot more! This is a very interesting landscape. The tones and rock texture alone are well worth photographing but you've included the "human touch" nicely. The working tractor and the dust cloud really add to this picture. Well done!

baddori (18988) 2012-05-19 22:38

Suleyman
Montagne tormentate ...e pianura coltivata .
L'Anatolia Centrale ben fotografata nei suoi elementi geologici più importanti.
Ottima condivisione.

adores (28236) 2012-05-20 15:02

Hi Suleyman!
This is surely an incredible place: The shapes and colours of the rocks are fantastic. Goos composition with those trees in foreground - they look so small there! Good sharpness, light and colours!
