Waving flag, a photo from Potosi, South

Photographer's Note

"When I get older
I will be stronger
they抣l call me freedom
just like a waving flag"

Image captured in the middle of Salar de Uyuni.
endless salt white merging into the endless blue sky...with some waving flags breaking the bichromacy

Hello Silvio

A fine collection of flags, I'm glad to see Vietnamese star waving there. The couple on the left is a nice addition. Harsh light in this ultra-white place, but those conditions seem well managed.

Hi Silvio
Looks like u are on top of the world, this fine shot is well cropped with good light control although i seems pretty harsh out there but you managed to add the spices to the shot. The variety colors standout so stunningly against the environment particularly to the clean blue sky, lively with inclusion of human element. Well done
Warm regards

Ciao Jeppo,
un posto fuori dal mondo, non deve essere stato facile fotografarlo con tutto quel sale bianco, c'� anche un tocco di romanticmo nel tuo scatto, con la coppia l� sulla sinistra e la tua bella nota, ottimo il contrasto tra tutte quelle bandiere e il bel cielo blu...

Ciao Silvio,

Funny shot from the salar. Must be special place on this salty desert. I like the view of the couple on the left. was there Italian flag? I do not see the Polish, or is it in the middle? Nice colourful capture.

Manca la bandiera italiana, speriamo che almeno tu abbia lasciato una piccola testimonianza del nostro tricolore... :-)
Immagine piacevolmente fuori del comune, sicuramente interesante e ben catturata. Bravo a gestire una luce bestiale come questa!!!
Ciao, buon primo maggio!

I believe that this is also the place (not right where they are standing of course) where they collect lithium for batteries. Excellent DOF and with great detail to color saturation and light control. Beautiful clarity and your POV make this photo a pleasure to view. Great Job Silvio!!

Ciao Silvio,
dev'essere un posto meraviglioso, basta questa immagine a testimoniarlo!
Bello l'effetto delle bandiere colorate nel bel mezzo di questo candore.
Un caro saluto

Hi Silvio
this is a very strange looking scene.
Something, but i don't know which one, looks out of place haha, not sure if its the landscape or the flags!
I can see a Quebec flag on the right, in blue and white, Quebec is a province of Canada...very interesting.
thanks for sharing this unique scene.
cheers

La Bolivia � cos� lontana da noi.
Chi conosce l'essere isolati, prima dalla natura (isola) poi dai soldi (recessione) ... Una tristezza !!! ... Le feste hanno pi� sapore.
Ottima presentazione.

Ciao Silvio, ma tutto quel bianco � sale?
Paradiso per le capre.
Bella composizione conn le bandiere a rompere il bicromatismo e la coppia ad attenuare il senso di desolatezza del luogo, foto difficile conn tutto quel bianco sbrlluccicante, te la sei cavata alla grande, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hi Silvio,

i like the POV and the hard contrasts. Ideal for this kind of light situation. Well done and best regards, F.

bostankorkulugu (42866) 2012-05-23 3:44

i ve chosen this one for the colourful flags but the romantic couple on the left have made the compo even better... the hat is an add-on for sure... good job amico...
