I like the fact that aside from the technical merits of this image, it is quite emotive and evocative. Viewers react to an image like this either with apprehension, fear, caution or any other feeling that comes up. I feel you captured a beautiful scene, with perfect colors, exposure and details and you brought a sense of a real old and ancient place to life.
Wonderful. Wycoller is one of my favourites places on earth and you have taken the best pictures I’ve ever seen of it. You have captured the stillness, the sense of history, the whole essence of this special place.
