[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
Colombia, in spite of having manifold wealth of hydric, topographic and cultural type, is a country net agriculturist.

Widely known for being the best producer of smooth coffee of the world, on the diversity of their ground seeds itself in harmonious furrows, infinity of rice cultures, maize, banana, yucca, potatoes, vegetables, flowers, fruit trees, etc.

This photo, more than a window to the world to show something of my dear Colombia, is a scene to create ecological conscience towards us, our children and the children of our children.

As a result of the global heating, of the abrupt climatic changes, the lands of ready for sowing Colombian, specially in the savannah of Bogota (center of the country), as well as in many other latitudes, have been affected and have undergone the consequences of these events, caused on great scale by the progressive development of the man through time, in the contamination of the air that we breathed and the hydrographic sources.

Strong heat waves during the day (with absolute cloud deficiency) and forts frozen to the dawn in my country, have destroyed ready for sowing whole numbers, having caused lost and grief.

¿What inheritance we are going to leave to him our children?

Hola John!
Uma bela composição que muito lembra as paisagens campestres aqui do Brasil, neste momento ainda com o delicioso milho verde, mas em breve na exata fase que você nos mostra. A porteira acrescenta um belo detalhe e a rua nos dá uma ótima profundidade de campo visual.
Um abraço,
Zeca

Have a nice day,

Hola John,

Gran profundidad en esta imagen, pagaría por pasear por ese atrayente camino, los colores tienen unos tonos muy interesantes y la escena transmite una gran calidez, la composicion es perfecta, con la puerta metálica abierta en dos alturas diferentes y como diciendo: pasa y disfruta. Buen trabajo amigo.

Saludos
José

esta puerta abierta nos invita a entrar en este maizal, y el camino de una gran perspectiva y profundidad a la imagen desde tu buen POV.
Buen trabajo con la luz del sol, los tonos dorados y los colores en general son muy buenos, y eld¡fondo con las montañas y las nubes queda muy estético.
Bonita foto e interesante nota.
Un saludo,

hOLA jOHN o.

I hope that there will be a turn-around in the problems of drought and global warming!

Each area of the world will be effected differently, BUT we are all connected!

I like this photo, but especially the thoughts expressed in your Notes.
Thanx for sharing, J.

Hi Jhon.
Bella foto con colori superbi e composizione ottima.

Hola John

Muy bien compuesta esta imagen y una gran perspectiva con la inclusion del camino que se pierde en el horizonte. Yo tal vez le hubiera aplicado algo mas de contraste pero esto es una cuestion de gustos.

Me gusta la foto.
Sergio

hola john,
a cornfield in all its splendor! great one!

Hi John. Excellent photo. Good foreground and far ground with the road linking the two perfectly. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Hi again John.
It looks really great, you captured it from a wonderful perspective, lightness, colors and depth are also very good here.
Thanks a lot.
Evan

Hola John
La foto es hermosa! Y ojalá nuestros hijos puedan disfrutar de las maravillas que tiene este mundo!
Es tan injusto, que por culpa del calentamiento global y la conducta de los paises industrializados, que tengamos que perder estos espectaculos de la naturaleza!
Ojala que estas fotos, no sean en el futuro, solo el recuerdo de algo que fue...

Beso!
Paula.

Hello John,
A strong lead-in in this fine composition!
Good colours palette, and a fine feeling of depth is created...
Well balanced composition!
Greetings,

Hola John
Me gusto mucho tu punto de vista con ese camino que tira el ojo hasta las montañas. Se nota como dices que esta bastante seco. La situacion para la agricultura es parecida a mi pais, Australia. Pero para los fotografos, eso permite sacar fotos como este con colores muy bonitos y mucho contraste entre el sol y el cielo.
Saludos
Nikki

Hi John, it is funny, your nick said ElAprendiz (the apprentice) but with a photo like that I think you have learned everything.

Great colors and the POV is suberb. The open gates bring us to entering in this wonderful field. And then to the mountains in the background, by the way amazing depth.

Andre

Bonjour John,
un champ qui nous ouvre la route vers les montagnes en fond de scène, autant dire que cette prise a de la profondeur.
De belles couleurs et je suis fasciné par la luminosité et les blancheur des nuages qui semblent s'accrocher aux montagnes.
Un bon cadrage avec ce chemin décalé sur la gauche et non centré.
Amicalement de Belgique.
Daniel.
