Superb perspective and exposure, Mario!
I like the texture of the clouds you caught here, as well as the balanced composition. It feels like a mystical place, far far away from any civilization, in a land yet to be discovered...
Really nice!
Well done!

An incridible picture scene; I almost feel the breeze on the Napo river..

Good use of the cloud cover - it makes the volcano look even more threatening.

a beautiful sight you have spotted here, mario. nice layers of different colors and textures (river, the jungle, the volcano, the sky). nonetheless, the overall feeling is somehow "not there". the forest is too dark, the river is too bright. i would try to go back (if possible) in different light conditions or try different exposure values.

regards,
