Olive-tree garden Photo

Photographer’s Note

One more picture from this part of Spain.

We are here in the heart of "Sierra de Gata" where the fact that there are small mountains means that there is water and trees.

You can see wonderful olive-trees but they are not looked after anymore. One simple reason for this : the cost of having people to take the olives is more than the cost you can sell it...
Which means that only big farmers with a lot of cultures can rent people to look after olives...

picture taken at sunset near the village of Gata.

Hope you will enjoy !

Hello Christian,

Wonderful view of olive trees field. The sunset lights are giving incredible play and shadows. I like dominant green color and its tones. Silhouettes of mountain are very nice. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Parbo

Hi Christian: Nice light in this photo, the green is livefull. Maybe I would have avoided the sky considering is a bit burn. Take care.

Salut Cristian,

Merci pour me faire connaitre un olivier, je n'ai jamais vu un... La lumire ici est vraiment jolie et aide aussi a donner de profoundeur a la photo. Pour moi la composition incluant le ciel est parfaite, tu a su maitriser bien le ciel surexpose, on voit que le silhouettes de montagnes. Le format carre vait tres bien aussi.

A+

Bonsoir Christian,
Une très jolie photo avec des jolie couleurs de ce début d'automne. Bonne netteté cette photo, et malgré l'arrière plan et le ciel un peu clair, cela en fait une belle prise de vue.
Bien à toi et amitié de Bruxelles.
