Hi Hisashi,
It's a honor to be your gallery neighbour today :-)
Even under the clouds this place remains every pixel as spectacular, these elevated povs allowing eagle views with excellent details at ground level, the background developping storm is a nice detail.
Have a nice day JY

Hisashi,
Great landscape shot! The placement of the ruins is great allowing us to see the landscape around it. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail. The stormy sky provides nice contrast to the brightly lit scene.
TFS,
Asa

This is a spectacular landscape, Hisashi! It's dark and moody in the distance, with the storm on the snow-capped peaks, but it's pleasant and serene in the foreground, with the Gompa watching over the huge valley. It's a great composition with the rocks in the foreground leading into the scene. Regards, Ken.

Hello Hisashi,

You used perfectly the lightning of this moment for this landscape shot. I like a lot the graduation in the lightning between the foreground in the light and the background under the clouds.
The green valley in the middle attracts the look.
Yes, really well managed,

Yves.

Hi Hisashi,
Impressive wide angle view down to valley. Good contrast between rough rocks and fresh valley. The incoming storm clouds really are dark and wet.

Hello Hisashi. Which for a beautiful and worth seeing photo. Rocks in the foreground, a culture landscape and in the distance cloud-imposed mountains. Exemplary composition, natural colors. A ideal picture for TE. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Beautiful contrasts in ladakh. You really took the real ambient of this region. I went in august 2007 for kun climbing. Threw your image I remind very well this wonderful country.
so good, thanks

Excellent contrast between the dark and the clear. I had a look at your Jammu and Kashmir photos and liked them tremendously. I found your name after reading your favourable critic to one of my Zanskar photos.
Continue shooting!
