getting going, a photo from Madeira, Islands

Photographer's Note

1 – Pico do Areeiro / Pico Ruivo / Achada do Teixeira

the walk narrows down over some ridges
the tufa rock gets slippery when wet so well constructed paths give level and secure footings
later the steps..

Hello Geof,
A good perspective along the mountain tops in this interesting landscape. I like the inclusion of the intrepid walkers and the earthy tones. Good light and excellent clarity.

Hi geof

Good sharpness with the hikers on the path at right adding scale & context. I like the warm vs cold colour opposition, between the red slope & blue sky. Tfs!

Hello.
What a landscape! The POV you have chosen is quite nice and allows you composing an impressive and beautiful picture pointing out both the relief and the sharp textures of this rocky landscape. The perspective on the small track adds to the dynamic aspect of the picture and the light was fantastic.
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Geof
It´s a good POV that enables us to view the different colours and shapes of the mountains.
The trekkers serve as a scale reference.

Hallo Geof!
What an impressing way - you shouldn't stumble there! These colours of the rocks are really incredible and givea breathtaking contrast to the sky. A walk truly between earth and sky ...
Greetings from sunny Germany - after many days of rain!
