I found this one particular composition includes three primary

characteristics of La Paz: the long braided hair of the native women,

the narrow streets and fine details of colonial architecture from the

Spanish era, and the incredibly steep and densely populated peaks

that surround the old city that sits down in a bowl.

A very nice representation of La Paz.  The vertical angle was an excellent choice.  Thanks for sharing this.  I spent some time in La Paz on business many years ago.  An incredible city, but I could hardly catch my breath because of the high altitude. This is a very nice image.

Exotic, for me, that is! Maybe too much warm tones, not that I don't accept them at all, but a little decrease should be taken in consideration! In other words tried!

 

Best regards, GJ!

This is a very impressive documentary/travel shot. Great perspective, depth, detail and lovely warm colors, providing a skillful, brief but all-inclusive, presentation of the local architecture, cityscape and culture...Very good job!
