Hola José, hoy al ver tu foto y la bella compo que nos muestras he sentido un poco de nostalgia por unos amigos Venezolanos que viven en Tenerife, ellos quieren mucho a su tierra y la echan un montón de menos... son una gente encantadora, Ellos son de Mérida y me han mostrado fotos de sus montañas, lagos valles... sería interminable, así que secuentro tu foto, y con todo el amor del mundo, Por Marilin y Félix, seguro que no te importará. Gracias amigo

Hola José MIguel,
Una postal impresionante la que nos muestras, ilustrada con las flores de estas 2 compuestas. Tienes una bonita galeria, creo que voy a aprender mucho de tu magnífico país que algún dia tengo que visitar, Creo que la máxima atracción son las aves.
Una nota muy interesante y educativa. Gracias por tu comentario a mi foto. Un abrazo,
Salutacions molt cordials.

Hi Jose,

Interesting compilation and very informative note. You really did make the best of the situation. I think we all experienced, from time to time, that we travel far distances to take photos and end up with poor light or other problems.

Hi Jose

What a charming presentation!
The view over this lagoon is terrific and the colors and toxtures on the stons are lovely!
I also like the POV, the excellent exposure management and the very nice DOF.
The second part are the cahrming flowers which are a nice add-on and produce a lot of interest. They are captured well, with plenty of nicely saturated colors and crispy clear details.
A very original post!

Bravo and TFS

Una presentación diferente Jose Miguel con el bello paraje y varias de las especies que pudiste encontrar allí.
Me gustan los intensos colores de la imagen principal con agradable punto de vista y encuadre realzados por la suave reflexión estéticamente muy apropiada.
Como criticón que soy, creo que las imágenes inferiores han perdido algo de calidad, posiblemente en el post procesado como la definición en la central y una ligera sobre exposición en la flor amarilla.
De todas formas es una interesante e instructiva entrega.
Gracias y un gran saludo... Ricardo

Beautiful lagoon surrounded by rugged looking hills. The dwarfed vegetation at this altitude is quite natural. A very attractive landscape, Jose. All the arduous climbing to reach this spot is worth its while.
The lichen-covered island in the middle of the lake looks like a pyramid to me. Is it man-made?
The collection of wild flowers found at the spot adds valuable information in conjunction with your detailed note.
Thanks and take care.

Hola Jose Miguel
¡Pues sí me hubiera gustado ver los patos! Pero claro, lo mismo también se cansan de subir tan alto! Ji,ji.
Tiene que resultar emocionante encontrar un sitio tan hermoso a tanta altura.
Has hecho una preciosa composición de imagen y la has ilustrado muy bien con una excelente documentación. Te felicito.

Hola Jose,
A wondeful collage with great vivid colors. The view of the mountain lake is wonderful and the different flower give us a great idea of what we can find in the mountian area. I do like the composition of the lake photo. The beautifully shaped rock is perfectly positioned. I have to be honest about the sharpness. The photo seems to lack it and could use more of it.
TFS,
Niek

Hello,
I sincerely had a great time reading those so interesting notes Jose Miguel! This is what TN is about, learning :) I congratulate you for those nice pictures and to have climbed there. You must have had a good time though in such a wonderful place. All those pictures are very well done. I learned many things with this post and I thank you for that.

No, no, no, dear Jose! One thing at a time please! First the lake, than the vegetation one by one. We have only 200 K for presentation of an item and you want to "crop" our pleasure of viewing these nice things sharing only a limited space of 200k bytes!
Wonderful colors and sharpness!

Hello José Miguel,
a very appealing and informative presentation of a unique and extreme mountain habitat, well composed, with each element profiting from the existence of the others. I like the clear details, the intense naturalistic colours, and that kind of matter of fact presentation plus well describing notes. Thank you!

Hello Jose Miguel,
This is splendid landscape photo with crystal clear water. I find the island amazing-its shape, the part underneath the water,... I like the flowers, too. Sharpness is not graet but you have addressed that in the WS.

Hello Jose,
Subject: very interesting area and nice illustration of plants
Composition: good idea of collage
Focus: good
Color: well staurated
Tecnical comments: some grainy effect on the picture, is it oversharpening or too much cropping!?
Great job!

HOla Jose Miguel,
muy bonito foto de este lago (so much for my spanish). I think I've been here. I camped the for a night here and my girlfriend really got altitude disease here. We came from merida in just a few hours and had only very little to drink. But the place was superb with great view on the high Andes peaks in between the clouds. Unfortunatly we missed the abundant flowering frailejones (wrong time of the year).
Great one!
