Tatacoa Desert (Appearance) Photo

Photographer’s Note

Tatacoa Desert (Appearance)
....................................................

Very early on a Sunday, all arranged to move towards the Municipality of Villavieja, a little further north of the city where I was, Neiva (Huila).

Light and fresh clothes, a backpack, a hat blocker and to protect me from the strong sun, and you can not miss the camera. Everything ready to go from that town, to the Desert of the Tatacoa.

Immediately arrived, the first thing that came to mind was attempting to perform a panoramic picture, because the landscape that was presented before my eyes, was just wide, almost infinite and beautiful.

Since I do not have a wide-angle lens, I took as a reference and a pulse same manual, which allowed me to capture three measurements in a horizontal row. So I did, and post-processing Autostitch I used the tool for the development of the final I wanted to do.

To my taste, the result has been very acceptable, but expected a little more light. The conditions at the time, were just about to change.

I hope you like it.

John

Hola John,
La perspectiva es magnífica y el cielo precioso. Quizás un poco de sol le hubiera dado más color al paisaje, pero de todas formas es una bella imagen.
Un abrazo,
Charo

Hola John,

Excellent stitching works for creating fantastic panoramic view. The colors of deserts are unusual with green stains and trees but the leaden colored sky are just made your frame more incredible one. Congratulations.

Friendly Regards,

Ertugrul

Hola John.

A mi me sigue gustando. Algo sobreexpuesto el cielo, pero me sigue gustando la vista y las nubes.

Un saludo, Oscar

Olá John,
realmente a luz não estava muito favorável para fotos, mas mesmo assim conseguiu um ótimo trabalho aqui, mostrando essa paisagem com boa qualidadem só não entendi o porquê de não colocar uma versão em tamanho maior, acho que aceitariam...
Parabéns e Abraço

hello John

From the format, I thought this would be LV version? Good stitch job for this wide view. Perhaps the LV will be showing more details.

Interesting to see the desert landscape. IMO the contrast is a bit low, there is not much attractive feature of the desert and the dull sky is really not helping much. Sorry.

tfs, bill

Buenos días John,
Este gigantesco panorama debe ser más impressionnat aún en versión ampliada. Debe ser un desierto agradable a descubrir puesto que cubierto con un poco de vegetación. La realización es notable, excelente trabajo de montaje. Bravo.
Pasa un buen día.
Cordialmente
Joël

Bonjours,
belle photo de ce desert du Tatacoa, jolies couleurs, beau ciel, belle étendue desertique comme son titre l' indique.
Merci du partage d' un endroit que je ne connais pas.

Amitiés Thomas

Hola John,
Me imagino que algunos apuntarían que el tiempo gris no es el más indicado para una panorámica como esta, pero de echo quizás eso la haga más interesante, oh al menos, dramática. Además, creo que el cielo nublado resultará mas fácil de colar las imágenes, algo que parece perfecto.
Me interrogo porque no pusiste una versión ampliada. Se lo merecia!
Un abrazo, José.
