The Earth is Flat
Looking onto Andean fields near Simiatug, Ecuador. My vantage point was from ~ 13,000 ft. The clouds filled the valley below as the sun began to set. I had never seen a sky quite like this.

I am soooo hugely impressed by this photo, I have gone back to it several times this day, and have shown it to all within reach. Posted it on FB, etc. Wow! I would give anything to have been there at that moment. A priceless moment in your life, I'd imagine. Excellent!

That is quite spectacular! It's a really unusual view to be looking down on the hills with the clouds below that. And such amazing fluffy clouds too -- who knows, maybe they always look like that from above?

It doesn't look like could possibly be real, but that it *is* is even more amazing.

beautiful. Was the nd filter applied at the time or in software?
Kevin Machtelinckx (18 months ago | reply)
That is jaw dropping man. Surreal... Love your travel sets.
I'm also curious about the above question regarding the ND filter. Was one used at all? I don't know how that would make sense. Was this a composition of two blended photos? One for the sky, one for the hills?
