Ecuador and the Andes

A few shots taken on our half day trip from Latakunga to Quilotoa Crater Lake. we thought we would have another completely foggy day but the sun broke through and created the most incredible sky.

On the way up the Andes, we really thought our bad luck had gotten worse, I took the CPL off to make the most of the bright spots!

I like the first and last but there seems to be too much saturation on the yellow channel.

I like them all. Well done.
How much post processing did you do?

dlw

all three are gorgeous, maybe a crop on the first to take out the clouds would be better?

#3 for me, that is GREEN!

Cheers guys. If I cropped the first to remove clouds there wouldn't be much left would there? The lake was greener than green...

Wow, they look unreal! Thanks for sharing.

Neil great shots my man... always love seeing your work!

Please post more from this trip!

Love the crater shot! The second shot is good as well. Unfortunately I think it would probably have been great if you could have stopped because the detail would have been a lot better.

They all look amazing, beautiful place. #2 is very interesting, have to really look at it to appreciate the altitude, looks like the clouds are a blanket on the hills.

Stopping would have been nice, wasn't too happy that day but did enjoy the trip. There will be more shots as soon as I can find time

Cheers one and all

Wow. Stunning. I really, really like - crazy angle on #2 and #3 is just gorgeous.

Wow, that last place is awesome. Nice work. Where exactly was it?

Cheers guys. The lake is about 2 hours drive from Latakunga, in Quilatoa, part of the Cotopaxi NP.

#2 is an amazing view, I've not seen many shots of this area apart from Nature programmes!

Cheers
