The Lonely Mountain

Nikon D5100 35mm f/1.8, 1/160s @ f/22, iso 100

Still in the "process all the photos!!" phase :)

You have to be very brave (or insane) to leave in a city with a volcano near by. And Arequipa has three! Granted, they are not active (right now) and they look amazing with their snowy peaks hoovering over the warmth of the city.

On the picture: Misty, the second highest (5822 m) of the three sisters. But the one most beautiful!

The picture was shot with no AE bracketing and it needed some heavy editing with Nik Collection to get all the details in the background pop.

Doi Chiang Dao - the second highest peak in Thailand.

These are two different pictures taken in sequence as JPEGs. Using vivid film simulation for color and standard black-and-white. Long-exposure night photos - and I could hardly believe the level of detail preserved by the trusted Fujifilm X100s.
