Hello Stefano,
This splendor of nature shot is suitable for National Geographic Magazine!
Great colors and smoke effect with every detail clearly visible.
Focus is accurate and lighting is superb.
A great capture and a neat presentation.
Regards,

Francis Xavier

Hi Stefano,

i looks like someone has zoomed onto the skin of an older person ;-) Smooth brown tones and a landscape that looks like the ground of Venus.

Well done,
Edi

Hi Stefano,
Thats a pretty interesting landscape.
Yellowstone National Park seems such a different place.
Wonderful composition here. I like these kind of pictures which show such varied geography!

Hi, Stefano,
I fully agree with Francis, this is a shot for National Geo. If it is zoomed skin of older person, I think that such person must remember mammoths.
In any case, perfect !!!!

Hello Stephane,
Not the best image of Yellow Stone, but the essence if for sure right on. Really depict the activity inside the earth. There was a talk that Yellow Stone is one big vocano and if it were to erupt at full scale, it can put the earth into darkness for year and human would be extint. Imagine that. Nice shot. I like it.

Hello Stefano,

The more I see photos from Yellowstone, the more I want to visit this place. Who knows, perhaps one day, but not this year: already planned Iceland and Nepal for 2009.
Very good foreground here, but I find the background a bit too much visible through the steam. With a narrow DOF I have the feeling the touch of mystery could have been higher.

Yves.

Well captured in sharp detail and fine colour tones. You captured the atmosphere of smoke and sulphut very well. Well seen and well executed.

The colours of the nature are great here. Beautiful and imposant scenery here that you have captured.
Best wishes,

Ciao Stefano, potrebbe un paeseggio di luna o conseguenze nuclear. E un composizione molto unico, molto nitida con bel strutture. Complimenti, Lisa.

Come tu faccia ad ottenere questi risultati da scansione Dio solo lo sa.
Forse te l'ho già chiesto, ma non sembrano lavori fatti "Dalfotografoallangolotantoalchilo"; inoltre trovo spesso nelle mie slide impurità e granelli che rendono complessa e noiosa la sistemazione successiva.
Ottimo lavoro, comunque.
Ciao
Renzo
