Rice Terraces of Long Ji

Uploaded: December 12, 2006 13:17:51

Description

Panasonic FZ20. Taken early in the morning just after sunrise. The rice terraces of the Dragon's Backbone Ridge in the Longshen area of China are an amazing engineering feat with the terraces stretching up to 800m.

Dianne M. Bolognani December 12, 2006

Very interesting photo. Nice color and textures. Good job, Peter. #3695788

Anna Diederich December 12, 2006

Excellent pattern and texture. Great color too. #3695985

Claudette Anderson December 12, 2006

The faded light in the background gives a lot of dimension to this photo. I can see why you wanted to capture all of the lines of the terracing. Very well done. I also shoot with the same camera - and absolutely love it's versatility and playing with the results in PhotoShop. We'll have to compare notes since I'm also new to the FZ20. You have China to photograph and I have Colorado! Claudette #3696218
