What a view, a photo from Lao Cai, North East

Photographer's Note

The next of my shots from Sapa and the H'mong people. These ladies carry all sorts of items in their baskets on their backs. They were taking a break along the way.

Yeah a beautiful view. The girls are well placed within this frame and they seem to be standing in a high point. A nice contrast of colour and the pattern of the fields create a nice background. Thanks Wanda.

Hi Wanda,

What a view indeed! This gives me vertigo!...

Terrific shot Wanda, a truly stunning one. You’ce created a great composition, very well balanced and with excellent proportion. By choosing to put the two H'mong girls not too large in your photo, the perception of immensity have even more impact. The haze allows to feel the distance and creates dimension.

I really like the details, the sharpness and the ambiance, like minutes before rain shower.

A trophy in your gallery.

Hi Wand
This picture is nice. The relief is impressive. The cropping could maybe be shorter to see more the woman.
However it's beautifull

Great perspective, very nice composition. Very representative from the Sapa area with the landmark H'mong women and their beautiful costume.

Hi Wanda,

A simple scene but of great force, with this composition you show an impressive place to us, good perspective and an interesting light, was good idea to include in the scene those two women, they give life to the work. TFS

Hi Wanda,
A well composed photo with the two H'mong girls on the steep hill in front and the slope of the mountain on the other side of the valley in the back.
I like the hazyness for the background as it gives more attention to the foreground.
Interesting to see you are still using an analogue camera. Did you scan this one yourself or do you get a copy on cd when developing the photo's and printing them?
Well done,
Harko
