On the Rocks

Mediterranean vegetation on the rocks underneath the city wall of Dubrovnik, Croatia. Broom came into blossom, contrasting the grey of the rocks.

Beautiful texture and light Peter. I like your placement of the larger tree as well. The larger version is a must see to experience the fantastic detail.

Very nice Peter. I love the little spotches of yellow flowers and the great variety of vegetation.

Wow ... that's an excellent find, Peter. Even the harsh light works very well here.

Very nice... a landscape on it's side. Great colors and textures with enough details to keep me looking for a long time.

I like the abstract quality to this. The way the plants blend with the rocks creates a nice congruence.

A very nice shot Peter! I like the light in particular. This gives a wonderful sense of spring or early summer in the mediterranean. I am a bit torn on the pine tree - I wonder how this would work without it. But it's a small issue. Well captured!
