Hello James,
Even in this digital age, it is my firm conviction that nothing can match the magic of slides which many of us preferred as a medium not long time ago. I have a good collection of them from my treks in the Himalayas.
This fantastic image succeeds in giving me a virtual experience of these world famous geysers from Chile. That solid bank of clouds in the sky and those sharply contrasting ridges in the background give the picture a three-dimensional look.
Your well-written notes also add to the enjoyment of your images, James.
Best regards,
Ram

Hi James,
What an awesome photo. I've heard about the geysers. You have to be there really early to capture them and it take a rather long drive to get there. Normally one would hope for a clear sky, but this cloud formation gave the photo a very beautiful atmosphere. I'm adding this to the geyser theme.

Fantastic viewshee. The steam vents seem to rise straight up to the stratosphere. The POV, and title add an other-worldly perspective. Well done.

Hi James, this is a very cool shot. This could be used in some scifi movie. Your composition is very good from that low point of view. The detail on the geysers, rock and clouds is awesome.

Thanks, John

A surreal landscape, James.
The spouting geysers rising toward that expansive low cloud bank create a powerful visual impact.
The light is beautiful.
TFS. : )

Hi James

This is indeed a very interesting and rather unique photo!
It's a pity we don't see more of these on TN.
The timing of your shot is impeccable and the sun-light gave you all sorts of wonderful colors.
The sky and clouds do indeed look amazing, while the sharpness is really great (considerring it's a scaned lide).
A superb composition!

Bravo and TFS

What a striking scene, not just from the steam but the sky is appealing too.
Very interesting.
