Hello James,
Efficient isolation system these Vicuñas have. Thought these were lamas actually.
An overwhelming vista in which the animals are a reference to give us an idea of the size of El Misti.
Wonderful content and very educational contribution.

Not sure if the island Krakatoa was a strato but that has a familiar ring...which BTW left a ringing in the ears for a generation when the caldera caved...quite the story...your image here in some ways reminds me of the aftermath of St Helens...although quite different...I mean in the life in the fore and the more imposing and looming volcano in the rear...a multi centuries old story! Very nicely done as per your good qualities.

Ciao James,
meraviglioso paesaggio di questo altopiano con l'imponente montagna sullo sfondo, eccellenti POV e composizione, fantastico il contrasto di colori nell'aria tersa che permette questa visione dalla perfetta nitidezza.
Grazie e complimenti.

Hello James,
A great slide, well worth scanning!
The scale ov grandeaur and the perspective provided by the Vicuna herd in the not so near FG, the ridge behind them and the El Misti towering in the blue sky in the BG provide a fine scene.
TFS this fine one from your archives,

Hi James,
Are there any countries you haven't visited?? When you said Peru I figured these were llamas. Guess I should never assume. The Vicuna give us a good perspective of the size of El Misti and the vastness of the plains. Beautiful landscape with wonderful colors, clarity, and composition. Notes were excellent as always.

Hi James. A very good picture of the EL MIST in the back ground , I like the way the light makes it look blue. With the unusual straight lines in the green area. Thanks for the interesting notes .TFS.

Hello James,
Fabulous clarity!
It is so sharp it doesn't look quite real!
The animals give the shot a little f/g interest before the eyes attempt the assault on the volcano!
Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi James, I see your mountain images and feel despair!! I used to be a very avid climber until a bike accident put paid to that... I love mountains... this is a cracker of a hill... the lonelyness is superb and emotive... I want to go get to this one... It must have been a sight!!
The clear blue sky just adds to it....

I like the boldness of this composition James. It is so abstractly stark and the vicuna add a sense of the huge scale. The depth of focus is super.
Take care,
Evelynn : )

Hi James!
It looks somehow absurd and droll, as if we were on another planet... This is a very beautiful, amazing and stunning picture. A "dead" landscape and a couple of lonely animals. The composition with the centered mountain and the animals just below is marvellous.
Congratulations for this outstanding picture!
Kind regards

Hi James,
What a very impressive photo. The color of the vulcano is just amazing. The baren landscape gives a feeling of insignificance. The herd of Vicunas add a lot to the photo it gives a good sense of scale and brings a perfect variation to the photo.

Great shot! The colours, composition, pattern of the landscape, and above all the small lamas signifying the vastness of the plains, all look charming.

Dear James
We were in this area in the early nineties - and unfortunately our slides perished in the heat of the South Arican Lowveld ( distorted, warped and yellowish
You captured the atmosphere of this countryside perfectly! Congratulations, and I add your work to my theme "high Altitude.
Thanks for sharing,
Take care
