Bonjour,

Cette habitation typique du sud marocain est bien mise en valeur grâce à une belle lumière et une jolie composition.
Les arbres du premier plan donnent une touche de vert bienvenue.

Bonsoir Roger,

La colline cadre bien la kasbah. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails et les couleurs de l'architecture de la kasbah. Elle reçoit un bon éclairage ce qui fait ressortir les couleurs. Bonne soirée.

Bonjour Roger
Beautiful capture of an attractive architecture from Dadès Gorges. Red color is really impressive.
Your post before Aït-Ben-Haddou provoked me into visiting there.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Namaste Roger,
nice architecture with an interesting surroundings. Like the colour tone of it. Beautifully exposed and fine sharpness. Great shot. Tfs.
Best wishes.
Subhendu.
PS- Thanks for your critique on my today's shot 'contrasting expressions', but sorry that was deleted by the moderators saying a duplicate of the previous day's coloured photo. Though it was cropped from the upper and lower portion and I think conveying a different mood from that. Anyway thanks for your critique. Take care.

Hello Roger,
This red stone fort looks very impressive and was obviously built to last. The vibrant reds of the stones contrast very pleasantly with the soft green tones of the vegetation. The well chosen point of view shows the massive architecture to good effect.

Hello Roger,

Very special colours, both in the castle and in the rocks behind!
But then maybe the later is the building material for the other hehehe...
Fine point of view and a good angle on the structure, the green foliage offers a welcome colour diversion!

Greetings,
Pablo -

Salut Roger
c'est très belle cette construction crénelée de la même couleur de la terre qui l'entoure. J'aime le cadrage qui souligne la correspondance parfaite entre la nature et l'ouvrage.
Un cher salut
Letizia

ikeharel (112419) 2011-02-01 7:02

An amazing red tone of the soil and ground there, Roger, probably an iron resedue on earth.
Well taken from POV, good light upon.

Ike

Ciao Roger,
uno spaccato del mondo che mi manca decisamente, fantastica questa costruzione di un colore non consueto, il verde delle piante contrasta in modo incredibile, bellissima foto e complimenti.

Ciao Roger
splendido edificio! mi piace la presa ravvicinata e il colore che è tutt'uno con quello dello sfondo, mentre il verde degli alberi contrasta piacevolmente con esso. un posto che vorrei vedere anch'io.
buona serata

Hi Roger,

Wonderful kasbah in the ouarzzazate area. Fantastic colour of the building and the rock behind. I was two times in morocco but not in this part, alas. Splendid composition.

WArm regards

Well this is just a marvel! Una meraviglia!
I've never seen this Kasbah and it's a most photogenic subject! Furthermore all the surroundings are very peculiar and interesting and together with the fine light which you have found it makes an extraordinary photo. I wander why you kept it hidden in your archives for so long!

Excellent my friend!
Ciao,
Donato

Hi Roger,
very unique architecture. I have never seen anything like that before. The colors are also so different. Everything seems to be in red. The red contrasts nicely with the green plants around. The rocks make also some nice diagonal lines in the back adding some contrast to the straight walls of the castle.
Very interesting, TFS

Morocco is a wonder-word for me. This wonderful architectural and natural scene demonstrates this. Such a beautiful colors of rocks and walls can be seen only there, I think. Excellently composed and perfectly captured, under good light and with very high quality!

Hi Roger, An amazing looking building, looking more like a fort in the old western films, it's sandstone construction really highlights it's beauty & excellent focus & a truly great shot, kind regards Wilson.

Bonjour Roger,

Je viens d'avoir ma mère sur Skype qui est en ce moment au Maroc dans les environs de Zagora, avec d'autres amis... Du vent mais beau ciel bleu, quelle chance !!! Une belle photo sur cette joli kasbah, la luminosité est très agréable et met bien en valeur l'architecture bien typique de la région. La végétation apporte un bon contraste. Belle et intéressante photo, merci Roger.

Avec toutes mes amitiés et un très bon WE,

Jean-Charles
