[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In Pasabag valley the fairy chimneys tower over the many vineyards that run between the rock formations. For millions of years, the mighty volcanoes of the Central Anatolian Plateau erupted and spewed their mineral-rich contents across the land that would become the cradle of civilization. The valleys are sheltered and fertile with an almost temperate climate.

Cappadocia is very much home to small farmers who can still be seen every day tending their orchards, vineyards and field crops and riding their donkeys home to their cave houses.

Can't believe this is my 100th post on TN

Hellow Stephen, excellent captured, love your fairy chimneys, very well composition and great colours contrast. Well done, TFS

100 posts, funny how quickly time passes on TN isn't it. Congratulations.

Yet another fascinating landscape, well composed and you've done a good job on the exposure considering the crapy sky you had to work with.
