[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In ancient geography, Cappadocia (or Capadocia) (from Persian: Katpatuka meaning "the land of beautiful horses", Greek: Καππαδοκία; see also List of traditional Greek place names; Turkish Kapadokya) was an extensive inland district of Asia Minor (modern Turkey). In the time of Herodotus the Cappadocians occupied the whole region from Mount Taurus to the Euxine (Black Sea).

Cappadocia, in this sense, was bounded in the south by the chain of Mount Taurus, to the east by the Euphrates, north by Pontus, and west vaguely by the great central salt lake. But it is impossible to define its limits with accuracy. Strabo, the only ancient author who gives any circumstantial account of the country, greatly exaggerated its dimensions; it is now believed to have been about 250 miles in length by less than 150 in breadth.

Fabulous lighting caught at just the right time of day, and of course you know this is one of my favourite places so always a winner with me.

Beautiful scenery captured in great light. The composition is good. I like the centered "horizon", it has rendered a very balanced image. Colors are good and the sense of depth is there. Very good. One thing I don't like though is your frame. The dropped shadow on the right and bottom sides confuses the picture a bit. It seems that this shadow mixes with the picture causing those edges to darken. If I were you I would remove that dropped shadow... Next time, try to write a more elaborate note on the place itself (or your experience photographing it). There are some members who simply refuse to critique photos without notes...

Hüsmenaga, bulutlar gökyüzünü, siz de fotoğrafı coşturmuşsunuz. Işık ta harika ellerinize sağlık.

It's obviously the very inspirational place. Nice shot with fine light, interesting sky and amazing foreground.
Good work.
