Pisac, a photo from Cusco, South

Photographer's Note

Pisac é um lugar com duas atrações principais: as ruínas e um mercado de artesanato. A construção dessas ruínas é atribuída a pré-incas e incas e elas se destacam por estarem numa região de 3400m. O lugar era um centro administrativo e foi construído com arquitetura especial, própria para evitar possíveis danos provocados por abalos sísmicos. Suas terraças são peculiares e também se destacam os buracos feitos nas montanhas para depositar mortos e corpos mumificados.

Pisac is a place with two main attractions: the ruins and a handicraft market. The construction of these ruins is attributed to pre-Incas and Incas and they stand out for being in a region of 3400m. The place was an administrative center and was built with special architecture, to prevent possible damages caused by earthquakes. Its terraces are peculiar and also the holes made in the mountains are highlighted to deposit dead and mummified bodies.

Bonjour Ricardo,

Quelle belle composition. Ces estrades sont remarquables sous cette lumière qui les fait briller. Certainement un bel endroit pour y donner un spectacle. La présence des personnes donne une belle relation dimensionnelle.

Amicalement

Hello Ricardo,
A beautiful view of the mountains on a bright and sunny day, which rendered the colours really good and natural and they are well-saturated and vivid. The terraces look great from this angle. Very well done!

Terrific scenery, Ricardo. Great picture with great depth. I think it would have worked even better without the tourists/people on the footpath. Especially the views towards the mountains on the far left is stunning.

Hello Ricardo,
Wonderful green terraces we see here.
The landscape is stunning.
There are quite a lot of visitors.
Excellent sharp landscape picture.
If I remember well, this is the place in the mountains where you can make a long and very beautiful hike along small paths down to the village below.
Best regards, Paul

Olá, Ricardo!

Maravilha de foto! As linhas curvas das terraças criam um grafismo muito interessante e também ajudam a dar uma boa profundidade à imagem! As cores bem saturadas ficaram uma beleza! É uma região realmente mágica! Belo trabalho!

Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for refreshing my memories from my trip to Pisac. I came by bus from Cusco, took taxi to ruins and walk back to Pisac. The terraces look fantastic surrounding by mountains.
Nice quality photo as well colors, light and sharpness.
Best regards,
Zbigniew

Ciao Ricardo,

saluti

Hi Ricardo
The contours of the terrace field give a very graphical look heightening the strength of the composition with a smooth flow through the curves. Full marks for exposure and having the figs in the corner adds to the image, the colors are sumptuous and crisp altogether an impressive landscape which is a joy to view. Well done,
Best regards

Hi Ricardo
I remember this place very well, I was here only a few years ago. you came away with a wonderful looking scene, with the cloud formation in the bg and the long sweeping curves of the landscape cascading down. very pretty shot, exposure settings are excellent. cheers
