This was an attempt to capture the scale of the festival in Quillacollo on the day of the parades. This was taken in late afternoon as the sun began to go down and some of the crowd began to disperse.
In this shot I was attempting to juxtapose the colorful, seemingly endless mass of people with the distant mountains, and although the foreground is somewhat dark I tried to choose an exposure that would leave the colors of the sky intact. The vertical format was the result of an effort to use the hanging white decorations as a kind of framing. I hope that this has been somewhat successful. |

Don't know why this one is commented yet, it radiates so much life of colors in this festival in the shade of the street towards such a clear sunny sky, I suppose early morning.
Personally I attend more and more again to shots that radiates something, the basics of a good shot so easily forgotten by aiming only for unusual compos. TFS.
