An outstanding capture... so crisp & clear. Amazing colors too.... the reddish rock behind the mission style buildings caught my eye immediately along with the cobalt blue sky. A beautiful setting... fantastic work.

Friends are like shining stars. You may not always see them, but you know they are always there for you.

Lovely shot and again the sky is very impressively colored. The church looks like they didn't have a real big congregation.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

It seems you used some kind of filter to boost the colors. And this makes the image vibrant and dramatic despite the quiet scenery. It seems someone or something is hiding deep in dark holes of these buildings...

Looks like you used a polarizing filter, then pushed the saturation and contrast in Photoshop or whatever. The result is really dramatic. Great work!

That's it. I've got to order a gradient polarizer. I don't like the all over effect of mine that muddies the other colors. Every time I see one of these images I can't help think Man chooses some of the hardest, most unforgiving places to scratch out a life
