It's amazing how exactly you can draw the line between irrigated and not irrigated land! I like the way this line winds into the background, drawing the eyes to the mountains.

Very interesting shot Pierre. You forgot to mention what the fine was for cutting down one of those trees;-) This reminds me of the tree line in northern Canada. Although in Canada's case the ice is receding and the trees are moving farther north. Nice capture Pierre:-)

Oh man! What an amazing view! It's like seeing far across the border into a distant country. I too am taken with the stark contrast between the irrigated and the non-irrigated land. Fabulous photo!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important. Ruth Ross

Amazing contrast between the land with water and the land without. Nice image capture.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual. Edward Weston
