[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Alchi, Leh-Ladakh - altitude 3165 m

Ladakh located on the west edge of Himalayas has desolate rugged mountain range as you seeing. Yellow fields have been scattered in Alchi though there is few green in Ladakh.
The white building is the buddhist monastery (Thugjechenpo gompa), which has Tibetan architecture.

I was expecting the more fine sky, unfortunately for me the clouds did not decrease though I waited for a long time. Taken at late afternoon 16:23.

hi hisashi
i like the framing of the picture. i think you are brilliant with the contrast. the shadow of the clouds falling on the mountain adds so much creativity. thanks for sharing...

Lovely yellow vibrant carpet with extremely good composition and eye for details. I like the work and the great composition

Hisashi,
A stunning landscape. I must admit I'm glad the clouds stayed! Nicely composed with the lush yellow and green fields against the shadowed, barren mountains. TFS

Hello Yuya

What a amazing picture of this beautiful place's. You really capture a very good landscape picture. I like the POV and composition, Sky looks good and yellow flower is more attracting. Well seen and capture. A great shot.

hi hisashi
nice landscape shot, good pov .colours r great thnks for sharing

Hisashi,
Excellent composition with the use of the rule of thirds here. The desolate mountains provide nice contrast to the yellow field and nice sky. The clouds are great forming nice areas of shadow on the mountains giving us nice texture.

Hello Hisashi. Excellent. A fantastic photo. Very high technical quality. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hi Hisashi,
This is beauty of a shot. The beautiful diversity of the Ladakh landscape has been captured to perfection here.We can see the typical brown mountains, typically blue sky with clouds floating around - so typical of this part.But what makes this one even more beautiful is the cover of the valley with the yellow flowers.Really, haven't seen such a valley.Excellent clarity, wonderful colour saturation - each of the element which makes a composition worthy is present in equal proportion here.Just wonderful.Can't really help myself but to add this one as my favourite.
Waiting for more,
Greetings,
Dhurjati

Namaste Hisashi,
He he now that the yellow rape season is opening here in Europe, you post one from the other end of the world, in any case this foreground does wonder in lightening your picture, this monastery is set up in wonderful surroundings judging by this wide framing.
Have a nice day JY

Hello Hisashi
A picture that titillates my visual senses, soothes my eye, a picture that I want to look for a long long time. I have not been to Leh, & thanks to your picture, I should make it a point to visit sooner rather than later. Superb carpet of yellow flowers in the FG, leading to the barren slopes where the shadows of the clouds play with the light, with the snow capped peaks peeping in the BG. A fantastic picture, for which I do not have words to critique
Regards
Angshu

That's so typical, that's so surprising... It's really hard to imagine you'll find that kind of images, these kind of fields in such a high place before you're there. And you have the typical ladakhi light, with the clouds. Excellent.
Stéphane

Des couleurs absolument somptueuses pour ce magnifique paysage! C'est une image himalayenne qui me fait rêver! Entre aridité et luxuriance!
BoisBarb
