This is an unusual photo of "Cliff Palace" by Mesa Verde because it is taken under the snow. Congratulations on this great idea. Here the panoramic format is well suited to this image. I like this photo filled with peace where one can easily imagine hearing the songs of the Anasazis in the silent landscape. If I had one small suggestion, it would be to spend a little time giving some information on the location and circumstances of the photo. Thank you for participating in my contest.
Here the photographer made good use of the golden light on Cliff Palace and the photo was taken at a time when the usual crowd had left. I like the composition with the large vertical tower well placed in the image. it is a picture full of peace. This place is well deserved and I thank you for participating in my contest.
This photo also highlights "Square Tower House" in Mesa Verde. Congratulations for this image, and for this framing which places the tower at the strong point of the photo. However, a small note indicating the name and location of the image would have been welcome to help situate the scene. This place is well deserved and thank you for participating in my contest.
