Wow. The volcano looks really nice against the lovely blue sky. The low lying clouds almost look like lingering smoke from the volcano's past. What really interests me here is the marshy foreground. It is very interesting in itself, but the idea of marsh juxtaposed with the idea of the mountain and the sky is quite striking. The mountain, sky and clear reflection are all very neat and clean where the marsh is messy and dirty. I would not normally associate the two - which makes this compostion interesting.
Thanks for the experience of Ecuador!

Hi Andras,

I feel like saying, "out of this world," but of course it isn't. It all fits together to create a magical view. If you had to go out of your way to get this, it was worth the while, because the reflections of the volcano's peak, and the marsh really give this incredible scenery that little extra push. I've been keen on South America ever since I visited Paraguay and Brazil a decade ago, but I've never seen a photo of Ecuador like this one. For that I thank you.

;-D

Hi Andras, nice view and perfect choice of a bit of underexposure to enhance colours and preserv highlights.
The POV is simply marvellous.

Hello Andras ! Indeed a beauty and what a shot you made. So clear. I love the snow-covered mountain top which you can also see in the lake. So pretty up here.

Hey Andras, you took taht shot from the route to refugio, right? I went there 3 weeks ago but I saw nothing of Cotopaxi, nothing. but clouds! I swear I was angry as... well, great that you can show me what I missed that day! We decided to go up to the refugio 2 because of the weather. Did you do it? How was it? Your shot is amazing but you are right that it doesn't really show it's dimension. It is gorgeous even when you just see the lower half of it!

This is just amazing! The view, the colours and the reflexions are so well captured by you!

Beautiful shot, Andras!
Compositionaly, perfect! The peak poking behind the shreded clouds, it's reflection in the marshes and the deep blue skies (polarizer??) enhance the contrast of the snow peak with it's sorroundings...The wide angle here creates SO MUCH depth you can actually feel you are sucked into this amazing place..
A fav, no doubt!

Hi Andras ,
I'm going to Ecuador in few days and I'm eager to take good pictures like that! I would especially like to do a good one from the top!
Beautiful shot! The little houses between you and Cotopaxi give an idea how huge is this volcano.
