Thank You Laurence and Michael!
superb image Hans
A beautiful and well composed photo from you, Hans.
This is almost like an old sepia tone photo. I love it much!
The clouds, without doubt, make the picture. I also like the way the horizons seem to go on forever. The mute soft tones and sense of the ethereal grab my attention.
Your photo brings to mind a favourite piece of film music:- “Seven Years In Tibet”
Great photo! Thanks.
Laurence
