Landscape Añisclo canyon, a hidden gem

Añisclo canyon, a hidden gem · 09:38 AM

I've been silent for a while, so I felt it was about time I shared something... I've been travelling, hiking and mountaineering a bit, working a lot, and taking photographs all along, which means of course that I have a huge backlog of images to process!

So I'm starting with this set from a backpacking self-supported trip I did in my beloved Pyrenees a couple of weeks ago. I started off in the beautiful Añisclo canyon, I hope I've been able to capture some of its appeal...

Great job- I especially like the two last photos- amazing colors!!!

Beautiful striking colors and superb compositions. Well done!!!

I really do wish people would stop posting photos of places like this... my "Must Visit Here Bucket List" is running out of room. (just kidding of course... keep em coming!)

These are terrific photos of a beautiful place. The colors of the water are spectacular and unexpected, the kinds of colors I'd expect in tropical regions. The rocks are fascinating, too. Nice job. I'd love to hike there.

Thank you Mike! Your comment about the compositions is very encouraging.

You really should visit this area if you ever find yourself remotely close to it. It is a must! I promise you won't regret it

Thanks the swede! Yes this lens is great, so small and yet so capable. For what I do it is priceless.

I really like your framing in #5. It looks very surreal as well.
