Bonsoir Charles
cliché très riche en couleurs, j'aurais arrêté aussi pour méditer devant une tel beauté, mais je dois me contenter de ma forêt de conifères.
Amitiés

Hi Charles,
What a fantastic place to sit and enjoy one's strenuous achievement.....getting their in the first place. To me there is nothing better than being in the wilderness with the crsp, fresh air and the total tranquility. This view is certainly something to enjoy, especially the the amazing mix of earth colours across the mountains, broken by the lake below and the light layering of snow. Perfect....very well done.
Cheers Grant

That's a nice one. Great composition, especially with the placement of the person and the little triangle of sky in the corner. This really looks like a spectacular view and hiking area. Is this on the way to Macchu or just a trail in the mountains out od Cusco?
Great work

Hi Charles,
Yet another brilliant photo from Peru.
I must say this green looks very very appealing.
All the elements here complement each other very well to form a beautiful image.
Wonderful composition.

Hi Charles. Worth the walk (climb) for the view. Well captured, excellent depth and good inclusion of the climber for scale and of course the human touch. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Bonjour Charles,
l'endroit est splendide, coloré, profond.
La photo communique efficacement tout cela.
Difficile de s'imaginer que nous sommes à plus de 4000 mètres d'altitude, moi qui suis si fier de les avoir à peine atteints en Suisse.
Une photo très nette, avec des contrastes parfaits dans les lumières, l'expo est nickel.
Bien amicalement.
Daniel.

l'homme est bien placé dans cette composition, faisant face à ce décor grandiose, superbe, la grimpette, aussi difficile qu'elle soit, vaut vraiment le coup!

Hello Charles
Je suis encore enjoué de voir ces couleurs peu communes et agréables au regards. Le formes du relief accidentées sont bien détaillées. Un endroit où il ferait bon de méditer. Bien capté et bravo!
Amicalement

What a beautiful view, Charles!
I love all the colors with the shadows among them. Wonderful composition with the traveler looking down on that incredible lake and the bright blue of the jacket contrasting so nicely. All those different patterns among the rocks is just incredible. Really great shot! Many thanks and warm regards,

'A well deserved rest' with a stunning view. I love all the diagonals down to the little lake, kind of dragging our eye right down to it. You framed the image perfectly placing the hiker in a 'magic spot'. Well done.

Hi Charles!
Amazed again by your photos! Giddy height for my standards!
Very saturated colours, great depth of field and a PoV, which attracts my attention!
Wish I were there then!
The lake steals the show!
Warm regards,
Athanasios.

Excessivement difficiles les 4500m en effet, on se sent gonflé ou vidé, c'est selon.
Couleurs très saturées malgré les nuages, magnifique moment dans une bonne composition et un angle plongeant impressionnant.
