Photographer’s Note

After visitng the Moray Circles, I saw that 'nearby' there was this snow-covered peak. The driver that took me and a friend to this place told us that the name of this mountain is Veronica. So before going away, I grabed my camera and shot some pictures of it with my 75-300mm zoom. As much as I know, it is not one of the highest in Peru, but it is very nice to look at.

Croped, auto levels, curves, saturation +5% but darkened the blue colour, USM. All in PS.

I like the coulors ranging from the dark brown foreground to the crisp white mountaintop.

A cold and uninviting area, but very beautiful. DOF, Colours, everything is great. Good job.

I really like the warm colours in the foreground which emphasise the cold colour of the distant mountains. Well composed.

Wow... that mountain looks very majestically. I like the depth of this picture. Very good colors of the different levels of the photo!

Nice shot. Colors are great too. From looking at the mountains it looks like it could use just a touch more sharpening using a low radus in PS.

Well captured spectacular landscape. Good DoF. It is a bit too dark at the bottom and it needs a bit more sharpening. Wonderful composition, nonetheless.
