misty mountain acacias Photo

Photographer’s Note

After a two hours trip east of Keren, in the middle of the Roara Mountains (middle of nowhere)the fog appeared out of nowhere. The rainy season have been the best in Eritrea for the last three years, something good for this arid country.
I took this one from the car. The original is a colour one, I converted it to B&W and applied a red filter effect.

Hallo Rolando
I like the picture, the mist, the two trees
I like the gradation of the tone, though maybe I would prefer in BW - but the red bring certain atmosphere.

Wow what an amazing landscape. Almost otherworldly really in the sense that it brings. The shilouette and colours match very well with this photo. It's ceriainally the sort of thing I would like displayed on a wall.

Well Done
Andrew

Hi there,

I really love the first tree, it is beautifull. The transformation you did on the image it's nice, and the mist gives really good effect on it. I would like to see it on his true colours, just for curiosity.

Cheears.

Rolando,
a minimalistic approach with perfect off center placement of these acacias standing in the mist. Your PP gave a somewhat surreal appearance, not necessarily my personal taste but OK in the overall impression.
Regards, Peter

Hola Rolando,
Me gusta la foto como te quedo despues de todo el post procesado que le hiciste. No soy muy "fan" de hacerles grandes retoques a las fotos... pero en este caso me gusto el resultado ya que le da un aire mas misterioso a la foto del que ya posee naturalmente. Saludos
Picardo

Buenas Rolando!

He estado ojeando tus fotos y en líneas generales me gustan mucho, también es cierto que tienes una gran suerte de haber estado en tantos lugares, es mi envidia jaja.
Me ha gustado esta foto porque es una imágen que no me esperaba de Eritrea, ya que mi concepto pues es el de un sitio árido y muy duro en cuanto al clima.

Saludos desde Madrid!
