Hi Iwona,
Fantastic mountains, nice composition. Like 'batti9' - my first impression was Tibet! Beautiful sky as well. I was thinking what I would change if I could and I thought that would be a bit more light in the tops of the mounatins but I am not sure about it anymore because thanks to that shadow the mountains look darker and more mysterious and they create very nice contrast with the bottom of the picture and the nice blue sky so I decided I would not change anything! Love it!!Congratulations and more please! Tomasz.

Hello, Iwona,
this is one awesome shot! The light, the shadows, the depth, those snow covered mountains and that fabulous sky. This is truly breathtaking. What a magnificent view and captured beautifully! Many thanks and kind regards,
Shelly

Hi Iwona. Majestic, magnificent, magical. I envy you for having visited such a place. What need was there for the Tower of Babel when a place like the Celestial Mountains exists. Wonderful light and dramatic shadows cast by the clouds.Regards. Klaudio.

This is a land which fascinates me a lot, in my mind.
This picture perfectly fits with my idea of it.
A large, harsh, desert valley, with no trees and snowcapped mountains.
Beautiful Stefano

Hello Iwona, Kyrgyzstan is high on my list of places I want to visit. You've captured nature in its glory. Amazing shot that makes me wanting to sit on the place and fly overthere. Lucie

Serwus Iwona !
Rewelacyjnie pokazana przestrzen. Kapitalna plastyka. Piekne swiatlo. No i miejsce, rzecz jasna.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie,
M.
