Nice play, they look almost like humans.

Excellent compo, great tones. Congrats.

Lovely picture It reminds me the work of a Mexican painter named Jesus Helguera wich is very famous in my country due to he painted beautiful landscapes like this, besides others Mexican scenes.
I like very much the post-processing, colour, perspective and sharpness.
Congratulations for such as beautiful picture, which, I could stay for hours watching it.

Like all your images, it is very beautiful and the lighting is exceptional. Perhaps the botanical variety in this one overwhelms the viewer in search of simplicity, but that, of course, is just a point of view.

Very nice shot!

Wow, oh my!  I in love with the other worldly neon glow of the cactuses praying to the pink sun god in sky!  They must be sacrificing a goat on the monument.

I can't fault this one Marc. The low angle of the composition is wonderful, and the way the cactus's are glowing in the foreground, whether dodged or not look incredible! A top quality shot, by anyone's standards.

For everyone's info, the cactus are not dodged here.  The light is natural throughout.  The rock you see on the left drops off steeply and I waited until the setting sun was going down over the edge of the hillside to shoot this. 

Beautiful golden light.
