Nice nature scene with the water geyser. The geyser and foreground look like a dessert, the geyser itself somewhat like a Bundt cake, delicious. The sky is lovely as is the foliage.

    Welcome, artist friend Charlotte. Lovely scene.

A really beautiful nature photo you have here! I like how you have captured the many fine colors in the rock formation. You have created great depth with the dark green middle layer and the gorgeous blue sky filled with clouds. The clarity is pretty and the off center composition is pleasing. Lovely shot, how luck for you to be there! Best wishes for the contest!

Comment from Thomas Blanks


Wow! You went all the way to Madagascar? That's impressive. I went to Pagosa Springs, Colorado, and they had something like this, but it was more green.
If I had to guess, then... I'd bet that Lemur photo posting is probably yours too. I saw the cartoon movie "Madagascar," and it had lemurs in it. (don't tell)

    Yes, it was a childhood dream finally achieved! Which in fact turned into a business venture (importing Malagasy crafts) and I ended up going every year for six years - until they all got mobile phones and communication became a whole lot easier, on Messenger!
    Thank you so much for your review.
    Lemur photo? I don?t know what you?re talking about!!! :-)

I did not even know that cold geysers existed. I thought they were all hot. This one looks lovely though, with the warm golden colors, and it is standing out well from the background. You have also brought out so well all the fine textures.

The photo is sharp showing such clear and well defined details in the geyser, and the exposure is perfect.

The format is very good and with the geyser off to the right, it is a very fine balance in the composition. I think this is a great looking and well taken photo Charlotte, and I wish you luck with the contest.

This is an excellent photograph.

The framing is classic rule of thirds. The color palette is extensive and wide ranging.

The exposure captures a dynamic range of bright clear natural looking color. Cloud edges are clear and sharply seen.

The placement of the geyser in the frame lends itself for a good story.

Well done ... Bob

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that dramatic geyser. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

    Thanks Brian, oh dear I didn?t think about the amount of water needed in this contest, just thought it would fit the bill as it is a WATER geyser. Fingers crossed 🤞 the judges don?t have the same thoughts as you did!!
