Hello Roberto,

Hahahah, funny subject today. In fact it remembers me a shot I took in Mt Blanc range some years ago with the same kind of subject. I will try to find it back to put it in TE. I think you will appreciate also.

And here you come as your promise another beautiful mountain view from this place. I think its interesting to include the wooden restroom and the colour really adds point to the picture. I love to see the formation on the bg. Nice shot Rob....tfs.

Nice one, an original catch !

Hi Roberto,

You have switched from your fascinating shows of colours and landscape beauties to another world...but there lies the concept that has it's swirling moments of beauty too..
Superb composition.
Well done, dear friend.

G'day Roberto!

Maybe a better description would've been "Loo with a View"!! The Pentax in your hands is working well - great sharpness, colours and details. And thanks for the interesting notes, too.

Best wishes,

Hi Roberto,
I am a bit confused about that restroom as the hut for living is close to that. Seems to be a place for bad weather but then without sight, the hut would be better in this case, or not?
But well done capture with that small wooden restroom before the wide mountain scenery. The light is great.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hallo Roberto!
An interesting, an inventive and not everyday panorama view. The inclusion of the hut adds a lot to this scenery. A good idea!
Greetings from springlike Germany - and have a nice weekend!

Joli coup d'œil et belle touche d'humour (pas besoin d'emmener de la lecture ici, la contemplation du paysage suffit à faire passer le temps). Très belle qualité d'image également.

Hi Roberto,
One should do their business and quickly get back to this splendid view. Beautiful lighting brings smashingly clear crisp color and fantastic details and sharpness to this beauty. The jagged snow capped peaks look especially impressive against the vivid blue sky.

Haha, this reminds me of a shot that Larry took in Bodie with the title "A loo with a view". It seems to me that this would apply to this image too. Very good composition and definition to the point that I even can read the letters on the door. Wonderful backdrop to a wilderness that inspires me with awe.

thanks to you the view is no more private! Joking apart, you created a great exposure keeping the DoF great with aperture at 11! The definition of the details is fine as well as the attribution of the colours. Thank a lot for sharing.

Wow, great view, Roberto, somehow distinctively American (Canadian in this case:)) Compo is nice with the main "building" well decentralised. The contrast with the majestic bg is very pronounced.

Hola Roberto.
This is the loo with the most beautiful view in the world, nice place in the summer but I imagine siting there during a very cold day without heater, it's really scary. Your shot is very good capturing the beauty of the valley with the snow covered mountains. Excellent POV, colors, sharpness and clarity.
Well done.
Best regards.

Hello Roberto,

The wonderful image of the outhouse perched on the hill reminded me of a joke that I just told my little grandchildren, and they are repeating to their friends: Two little Chinese American boys roll an outhouse down the hill. The father confronts the children, "Who pushed the outhouse down the hill?" he bellows. "Not me!" Not me!" responds to the two children. The father repeats his question, and again, the children, claim, "Not me!" Not me!" Then the father sits them down, and relates a familiar story: "When George Washington was a little boy, he cut down a cherry tree. His father asked the young boy, "Who cut down the cherry tree?" George Washington responded, "I cannot tell a lie... it was me!" Then the Chinese American father explains to his sons, "George Washington's father rewarded his son, giving him a slice of a cherry pie for telling the truth." Then the father continues, "I am asking you one more time. Who pushed the outhouse down the hill." The boys look at each other, and each admits excitedly, "I chopped down the cherry tree, daddy." But the father then grabs the children and gives them a good thrashing. The boys are puzzled, and, as they cry, ask their father, "Why didn't you reward us for telling the truth?" The father, nodding his head, answers, "George Washington's father was not sitting on the cherry tree, when George Washington cut it down!"

Fabulous shot, and a photograph I will show my little grandchildren.

Hi Roberto,

Now that is what I call $hitting on top of world! Your light is very good here and even with f/11 there is very good separation from the background and the outhouse. I also like that you didn't let the outhouse and the mountain tops blend together. In other words very nice composition.

Hope things have been well,

Mel

Roberto,
Nice capture of one great commonality of the world. I posted a similar picture from the Trek Earth meeting at the Bodie Ghost Town, but whoever built that outhouse had the good sense to put a window in it so he could appreciate the view. I used to work in a camp in the mountains that had an outhouse with a wonderful view,but alas, no window, so I would just leave to door open. Luckily it was in a much warmer clime!

• smartcat (823)

Hi Roberto!

I think it's a very pleasant to use an outhouse situated at SO beautiful place in spite of, as I can suppose, it is not very comfortable :)

But when somebody goes to it, one can enjoy these wonderful mountain views and to be already in very good mood when enter it :))

Very well-taken shot, TFS!

Hi Roberto, now this restroom is not a place I'd like to visit at 3am, in my moment of need, during a storm!! Though you've chosen a humorous subject let's not forget that you've photographed it beautifully. The colours are vibrant, the sharpness is fantastic and you have great depth with the wonderful mountains in the background. It's a superb capture my friend and well seen, congratulations.
