Hi Chris,

Another great capture from a beautiful country, Mongolia!

I simply love the great landscape where you don't see people miles and miles away (except near the city of UB in this picture ;)).

Great colors and perfect sky with nice view to the engraved portrait of Chingis Khan.

best wishes,
Paras

A wonderful panorama from Mongolia.
Fabulous light and nice vivid colors.
Beautiful greenery and a nice portrait of Ghenghis Khan on the hillside overlooking Ulan Bator.
Great sharpness and perfect details.
Nice sky to complement the composition.

Hi Chris - Interesting view and thanks for the lesson in pronunciation. I hate it when people pronounce it 'Ghenghis' especially when they correct me! Good colors and sharpness, and I like the perspective.

Hi Chris,

Good use of pano format and rule of thirds in this unusual landscape. To me it's interesting how individuals and societies use art in this fashion to honor previous leaders and other historical figures.

TFS and have a good weekend.

Beautiful image of the country.
The burial site of Genghis Khan was ensured of secrecy, since everyone associated with his gravesite were murdered, including the animals which carried the diggers, and the assassins who may have heard of the location from the workers before they died.

I think I begin to recognize the typical Mongolian scenery, Chris ;o).
The panoramic format works well to convey the vastness of this landscape. I like how the textures of the valley meet the textures of the hills. Allthough there is no "eye-contact" between Ghenghis Khan's portrait and the town in the background, your POV creates an interaction between both. Intriguing...
Good compo and, to my northern eyes, the light shining on the land and the light illuminating the sky really seem to belong together in this photo ;o)
TFS & kind regards,
Erik

Bonjour Chtis.
Magnifique paysage aride présenté dans un bon format allongé qui fait tout le charme de cette image.
Les couleurs sont parfaitement saturées et bien adaptées à cette photo.

Bonne journée.

What an interesting view Chris! You have certainly seen some amazing places in your travels!
I like this one .. the colors seem to be truer .. there are a few of your recent Mongolia shots where the sky seems to be a little over saturated. This one looks really good.
Have a good week. are you going to be getting away at all?

Chris,
Possibly this is the hillside where he is buried? I have read of many attempts on locating the Great Khan, but now the government has not allowed any further searches for the discovery of his grave. Possibly the government is afraid that his discovery will further unite the peoples and bring about the reversal of power and thinking within the high offices.
There is always hope!!!
