I love the title, the picture and the angle. A true abyss on a very clear geographical frontier. Besides that, the groves down on the plane and the beautiful sky above with a few flurries of cloud, transform the edge of the city on the abyss into a beautifully embroidered skyline. The clarity of the detail has already become João Correia's hallmark!
Superb photograph. Well done!
