Ciao Giorgio
Nice POV to use your wide angle, for a looooong perspective corresponding to the reality of the Sig: a long corridor more and more narrow and suddenly opening up at its end to discover the Treasure
Well realised
Best regards

Certainly an exciting photo. 'Aqaba- from the LAND!' as Col. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia)said and there by turned the tide of the WWI in the Middle East.
Great work. Jancsi

Ciao Giorgio,d'impatto e' una foto stupenda e con essa si rivive tutta l'atmosfera di attesa prima di giungere al fantastico traguardo,esaminandola bene hai fatto un lavoro cinese per togliere la luce che sparava troppo nella zona illuminata della strada ma si vede troppo la taroccatura..eheh...pero' devo comunque farti i complimenti per la prospettiva con un effetto 3D straordinario.Buona giornata,Luciano

Hi Giorgio,
This image is a very tipical one but in this case the picture has been very well taken, with lots of quality and professionality. Very good management of the light and good idea to include these two girls as reference.
Cheers,
Juan

Ciao Giorgio,
impresionante POV del cañón, con toda la gama de colores de la roca. Con los estratos que crean unas bellas diagonales en la imagen. Con el contraste de luz y sombras. Y con las dos personas que dan tamaño al conjunto.
No conozco Petra, pero al ver tus fotos me estoy interesando por el lugar.

Un abrazo,
Carlos

Very good one, G. Amazing place, superb perspective. And you got a good pair of humans for scale, the textures of the wall at left are catching my attention more than anything else.

hi Giorgio,
I have seen many photos from Petra, but this has to be one of the most interesting, I like a lot how the wide angle has exaggerated the canyon, while the persons let the viewer appreciate the scale. love the fiery colours, and how the converging lines of the canyon walls literally drag the eye in. excellent photo, my compliments.
best,
Kristine

HI Giorgio!
Excellent point of view. The perspective is excellent because the lines on the rocks. Amazing colours and good contrasts. The two persons are a good reference for the size of the geological structure.
Best regards
Denis!

Ho visto molte foto di Petra ma nessuna era dedicata a questo notevole canyon d'ingresso. Il colore e le textures della roccia sono veramente eccezionali e quanto di più fotogenico esista! La tua composizione con le due donne ha una bellissima profondità e dinamicità e non potrei immaginarne una milgiore.
Bravo.

Ciao Giorgio,
un encuadre perfecto, descentrado, dinámico y con buena perspectiva de esta maravilla de canón, en una escena en la que las dos chicas nos ofrecen una gran referencia de escala para poder apreciar las dimensiones del lugar. Sin ellas, la foto no sería igual.
Buen trabajo, buena luz y bellos colores.
Un abbraccio,
Josep

Ciao Gio,
Meravigliosa composizione ai colori così caldi. Quale movimento nel rilievo della scogliera a sinistra. Si sente aspirato verso il fondo.
I personaggi sono posti perfettamente al limite dell'ombra e del sole.
Bellissimo lavoro, un saluto
