~ El Sarcofago ~ Photo

Photographer’s Note

This photo was taken while climbing the Pico de Orizaba (5650m). Here, we can see "El sarcofago" which means the sarcophagus. This pretty summit is 5080m high. My father and our guide "El Oso" (The bear) are not far away. They will finish by join us at the top a few hours later!
REPOST: This is my first attempt adding a border around the picture! Do you like it?

Hello Simon,
I like the photo, but I don't like the border. I sent a workshop as well, showing my opinion.
Best wishes,
Marci

Tis certainly is a great image with the rocks and snow making an interesting setting, youve done well to get it right with well controlled lights and good pov and dof overall good composition

Bonjour Simon,
J'aime la photo, pas le cadre. La photo est superbe et se suffit à elle-même, c'est grandiose et cet effet est accentué par la présence des deux personnages.
Les couleurs sont très belles et ce blanc qui converge vers le brun est du plus bel effet.
Cordialement
Thierry

The tiny specks of your companions provide a good sense of scale that emphasises the vastness of the landscape.
The central placement of the mountain works well here, and I like how it is surrounded by the empty whiteness of the snow and the clouds.
Good work Simon.

Cheers,
Ben

Bonjour,
J'adore le contrast en ce rocher brun-rouge et la neige!
L'ajout des deux andinistes donne la pleine mesure de ce paysage de montagne.
Joli travail.
A bientot.
Igor

PS : pour ce qui est du cadre ca ajoute un petit plus a la photo.
