Park Path, a photo from Parana, South

Photographer's Note

This is the Guartelá State Park entrance path. Actually the view is for who is leaving the park.
There is a long way back which includes crossing a small private ranch, saying hello to the owner, clambering up the same hill you went down easily before and reaching the park office.
The advise is not to spend your entire energy in the park, since you'll need part of it to goback.

Maybe you are asking why I'm posting what seems to be the last picture of the trip. No reason, I'm just sure this is only the second one and more are to come...

Thank you for visiting!

Impressive cloudy sky Carlos, well composed with the path in perspective taking us along in the greens, a nice place to enjoy untouched nature. A fine edition.

Oi Carlos,

Voce tem mesmo um olho apurado para composicao. O equilibrio aqui e perfeito e o uso do caminho foi sabio. Otimo POV, nao muito baixo nem alto. Profundidade perfeita e belas cores naturais. Vejo que seu talento para fotografia ja vem de longa data. A qualidade do scaner e excelente.

Abracos,

Flavia

Oi Carlos!
Faz tempo que eu quero conhecer estes canions e nunca o fiz..
A foto é muito boa, aproveitando muito bem o corrimão e a passarela para ganhar excelente profundidade. Céu bonito! Ótimo trabalho no scan! Que equipo usou para scanear?
Abraço,

Hello Carlos,
It's very well composed frame, with excellent chose depth of sharpness. I like how road leads sight far, until horizon. Great strong colors and interesting clouds.
Thanks for sharing.

Com uma temperatura amena (comum no Paraná) deve ser bem agradável a caminhada ao longo desta trilha.
Uma foto agradável e bem abrangente, Carlos.
Parabéns, um bom final de semana!
Abraço, Nivaldo.

Carlos,
The depth you caught, with perfect use of the wood pathway in your compo, and the dramtic sky are the two things that make this one.
Other parts are very good, includind sharpness and tones.
Regards,
JB.

pboehringer (770) 2007-06-17 10:59

Oi Carlos, imagem muito boa e para quem nao conhece o local parace mais ser uma introducao ao local e nao uma despedida. Enquadramento muito bom com o corrimao dando uma profundidade estupenda. O uso do polarizador esta o maximo e um ND grad addicionalmente teria ficado ainda melhor. E dou a maoir forca para vc comprar esta lentezinha ainda amanha ... :-)

Scharan (14144) 2007-06-17 12:30

Olá Carlos

Uma composição muito boa assim como a perspectiva e cores que estão maravilhosas. Bela paisagem Carlos, lindo trabalho, meus parabéns!

Grande abraço,
Vera

lucasgalodoido (26918) 2007-06-17 15:56

Olá Carlos!
Bonita imagem , gostei da opção de tirar a foto bem próxima do corrimão, faz nossa visão seguir o caminho mesmo! As nuvens são bem interassantes também!
Parabéns e Abraço!

jackart (6702) 2007-06-17 16:12

Hi Carlos !

Beautiful perspective is a key to this composition! Amazing countryside with interesting wooden construction. Good colors and contrast. Very impressive cloudy sky.

Well done!

Regards

Jacek

wgreis (8267) 2007-06-17 18:33

Olá Carlos,
linda noção de perspectiva com o cenário bem escolhido. As nuvens também formam um atrativo. Percorrer a longa ponte de madeira parece ser um bom passeio.

Hi Carlos!
Excellent POV and good use of this wooden balustrade.The diagonal leading to the horizon looks great and I like the contrast of the landscape with the soft colors of the sky.
Regards,Leo

jrj (34843) 2007-06-18 14:04

Good work here Carlos. You use the boardwalk and fence to the best to lead us into this compo - a very inviting landscape as presented here. Nice one..

Estou me sentindo num filme do mágico de Oz, só faltou a ponte ser de ouro! Excelente foto Carlos, com ótimas cores e linda composição. A forma da ponte chega a dar vertigens, bem interessante!

Abraço

this wooden way with the fence or handrail creates big depth and you also achieved to have wonderful contrasts. Very nice landscape.

capthaddock (28790) 2007-07-19 18:10

Oi Carlos - the perspective is the key here, the sky is nice and the landscape average, it's the geometry of the angle that makes the shot work.

Zelanda (5692) 2007-08-02 9:08

Hola Carlos,
Una bonita foto con espléndidos colores y un cielo precioso.
Me gusta mucho ese camino de madera con su curva.
Excelente POV y profundidad.

madux (203) 2007-08-23 12:36

I am stunned, Carlos.
Nice contrast among the clouds, and good combination between colors.
The wooden path is perfect, it suits so much in it, as if it was an element of nature.

Ola Carlos, the point and the perspective you have chosen is the best for this shot, the 3D effect and the depth is superb.
The sharpness is excellent.
Cheers
Evan

jusninasirun (17529) 2008-05-21 20:47

Hello Carlos. What I like best in this composition is the wooden handrail and wood covered trek. Stunning leading perspective climbing up to the beautiful landscape and dramatic sky. Thanks for sharing and best regards. Jusni

Ola Carlos,
nice the perspective and the POV of this wooden path that lead the eye up to the greenery hill.The blue sky and the brilliant light make the scene even more beautiful.Well done.

Regards,Danos

fulvio52 (8314) 2009-05-21 13:21

Hi, Carlos.
The path clearly steals the show leading the eye all the way into the scenery, but its the entire image to be both compositionally and technically of undisputed top quality. Wonderful colors, specially the contrast between sky and green is a pleasure to look at! Have a good day, buddy. I'll be seeing you. Un abbraccio,
Fulvio.

Amaz (11475) 2009-07-10 4:06

Que beleza de composição, Carlos!!

Lindo travalho, amigo!!

Meus parabéns!!

Abração!!

pablominto (53746) 2009-08-27 23:49

Hello Carlos,

The wooden path is something we never seen in my country!
I'm not quite sure why they build this kind of access, maybe it is to make the public walk in a certain trail..?
Whatever... the construction makes a fine photo subject, picturesque and with fine lead-in qualities!

Greetings,
Pablo -
