What a spectacular photo, it's hard to believe such a place even exists! I would probably be there FOREVER taking photos of such a magical place, wonder if they would let me bring some skulls along-lol! I can see why this one first place, big congrats, I'm glad i didn't get around to entering anything. Just a beautifully composed photo, incredible!!!

HI Charlotte, I'm so glad you added the vegetation in this. I think it really makes the shot! Love the ocean with the lovely sky and cloud streamers. A gorgeous shot that I can't believe I missed before. The lighting and clarity of the shot is truly perfection! Nice Job! Wish I had a six for you! Super entry for the contest! Good Luck! :o) Nancy

    Hi Nancy, thank you ver much for your virtual six! :)
    I didn?t promote it at all, which is why you missed it - I?ve been so busy recently I?ve had no time for FAR, so I?ve been just popping in posting the odd shot and rushing off again, I?ve not even been able to do any reviews!!
    So my apologies if I?ve missed any of yours.

    As long as you're not leaving the site Charlotte, your being behind is ok with me. I love seeing your artistry and am honored when you stop by to review mine. I have definitely missed you! Loved your image! The view was gorgeous! :o)
Comment from Jennifer Lancaster


Absolutely stunning. I love the vegetation here. I blew it up so I could see all the details more closely. Love the angle of this shot. It makes the scene more interesting.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Charlotte,
A beautiful coastal view with the cactuses & other Desert plants set against the sea that's reflecting the blue sky above with white clouds radiating out across the heavens. The differently coloured rocks in the foreground adds interest to the foreground & the distant headland draws the eye into the centre of the picture. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.
Susan

A simply stunning image here. You've managed to capture plants and greenery in the often barren landscape of the Canary Islands. The composition is perfect from the angle you took it, as is the clarity. There's so much detail to enjoy here. A glimpse of sea and an interesting sky contribute to a really lovely photograph with just the right amount of editing. Lovely!

    Hi Brian, thanks for your good review.
    I'm going away in Jan/Feb with a friend, but we don't yet know where exactly we're going, but the Canary Islands are on the list of possibilities, as having only been to Lanzarote I thought it might be nice to see some of the other islands too - have you been to any of the others?
