its like some mars landscape for me. Really interesting. Iam from central europe so combination between sand-city-ocean is pretty special for me.
I like contrast between colours of sand and road and bule-foged city and ocean is fine too.
It seems to me that horizont is tilted to the right. AmI wrong?

Hi Pamela,
Iquique seems to be very hot at this time !
The perspective is interesting, we see the city and the dunes. But for this kind of picture (landscape) i think it's better to use f16 or 22 instead of 6,3 to increase the DOF. Furthermore the horizon is leaned.
Anyway good picture of North Chili.

Very nice perspective and the colors are great! Feels really hot. I like that we can follow the road from the mountains to the city and the sea. It's indeed too bad that you lack a little of DOF and the city is a bit fuzzy. This landscape is amazing, the town is packed with houses but it stops suddenly at the foot of the mountain. Is it a big town?
It's true that the horizon is tilted, but other than the horizon line it's not bothering me on the picture. Maybe you can just crop the top of the picture so that we see only the sea and not the sky, and so nobody will know that it's not straight! :^)
You have a very interesting gallery.

Nice shot. We were there in the same season - nice place! But will be better to rotate about 4º CCW...

No conocia esta ciudad chilena, pero parece estar envuelta por el desierto y enfrenta con el mar. Me gusta el efecto visual de encontrar la ciudad cuando no esperas más que agua salada y polvorienta tierra. Buena foto!
saludos!

Hi Pamela - fantastic view of Iquique, I like the lines of the black road, the sand, the city, and finally the sea. I agree with others about the rotation, but it is still a very nice image.

Hola Pamela, interesante perspectiva. Me gusta el efecto que este angulo le da a la carretera. Si solo se ubiera podido lograr um mejor enfoque del fondo. De todos modos muy buen trabajo!

Pamela tienes varias fotos de tú hermosa ciudad muy bellamente captadas..éste es un excelente ejemplo...me encanta el contraste de las dunas y el fondo de mar ciudad. Además la carretera con sus sinuosas curvas y recta final invitan a la mirada para adentrarse en la foto...Una foto cautivante y con profundidad...Muy Buena !
Saludos, Robert
PS la leve rotación del horizonte la puedes reparar con Photoshop...pero es un detalle menor)

Parece que Iquique ha cambiado bastante desde que fui el 79!. La bajada ya no es la misma.
Muy bueno tu POV.
