La Barranca by

Zacatlan, Puebla skirts a fertile, narrow valley edged with forested cliffs and spotted with waterfalls. The valley is often hidden by lazy clouds that wait until mid-morning to lift and float away.

Photographed at dawn in Zacatlan, Puebla Mexico: Olympus E-3, 17mm, 1/13 sec, f/16, ISO 250

About Richard G Witham

My focus as a photographer and digital artist ranges from traditional photography to PhotoArt compilation and the less explored world of abstract design created with natural elements such as smoke, oil and water.

    I know why you ave been “haunted” by it….it is just…wonderful. ¿Estás seguro de que es “La Baranca”?… aquí lo llamamos “barranca” con dos erres….pero a lo mejor allí no…Me encanta

    gorgeous work with a feeling of paradise about it. Like a Lost Horizon scene

  • Thank you John. I took this photo from the balcony of a cabin we spent Christmas in this year. It sure felt like paradise :-)

    Beautiful work Richard and I love the air of mystery that the mist gives it!

  • Thank you very much Pauline, and I agree with you about the sense of mystery. There was one clear day while I was there, so I was finally able to see the cliffs and the floor of the gorge.
