Wolfgang - vu@granby from Granby, Québec, Canada
Goede avond Alphons. It looks just like the lavaflows in Idaho

@Wolfgang - vu@granby: Ook goede avond. Bedankt.
Monique from Koh Samui, Thailand
Een stekelige landschapsfoto ;) met een mooi standpunt, beetje jammer van de saaie lucht, maar de contouren van de bergen maken dat weer goed.

@Monique: Inderdaad is de lucht met felle zon in tegenlicht uitgebleekt. Ik kon dat niet oplossen dan alleen door te gaan PS'-pen. Dank je.
Reply #2. Ik heb later de lucht met Lightroom iets levendiger kunnen maken
Steve Rice from Olympia, United States
Lovely looking agave. Don't fall on them though! Those points aren't too friendly.

@Steve Rice: Nothing is friendly overthere. You can't walk a single meter. Thank you.
Luca from Genova, Italy

...its name seem appropriate... :)

DaveB from Exeter, United Kingdom
The plants look very out of place in such an environment!

@DaveB: They grow in stony lava. Thank you.
Pixim from Nice, France
I will not like to only find myself in this place. Finally this luminous sky (burned !) makes it possible to feel what being the hell if there existed ... ;)

@Pixim: Indeed, the contrast between the black surroudings and the hot sky was so big, only Photoshop could have helped me. Thank you.
Alaukika from Pune, India
Nature could still find it's way even in the devil's backyard.

@Alaukika: Thank you for visiting.
KIJI from valenciennes, France
It looks werstern movie landscape. I love this view!
14 Nov 2008 8:18pm
@KIJI: It's much worse. You can't walk in it. Thanks for your comment and visiting.
Marhilde from Geraardsbergen, Belgium
Stekelige plantjes heeft de 'devil' in zijn achtertuintje staan. Maar past dan ook geheel bij zijn aard ;-) :-)
Thx voor je replies op mijn logs !
14 Nov 2008 9:31pm
@Marhilde: Je krijgt inderdaad een heel geprikkeld gevoel daar. Ook bedankt en tot ziens.

so there is eventually life on the moon. Congratulation for this scientist break-through ;o)

@Laurent: Nobel-price ?? Thanks.
Paul van der Meer from Valkenswaard, Netherlands
scarry Alphons ;-) Ik vind de bleke lucht erg sterk passen bij de ruige sfeer!
15 Nov 2008 3:16pm
@Paul van der Meer: Ach, beetje extra duivels' is ook nooit weg. Gr. Alphons.
@sun: Thanks for comment and visit.
@Alun Lambert: The agave manages to get water out of it! Thank you.
JJ from Jersey City, United States
wonderful capture of the landscape from the name of the area seems its a rough and dangerous landscape
15 Nov 2008 4:05pm
@JJ: Turns out better. The last time one of the volcanos blew out was about 250 yr. ago, I believe.
@Veronelle: Thank you.
@Namaki: Thank you.
Toomaj from Tehran, Iran

@Michael Skorulski: Indeed, very intriguing unusual landscape, moonlike. Thank you.

Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Not the best place to grow Tulips...!
16 Nov 2008 2:43pm
@Observing: But people do grow something in that soil. I'll show it in one of my pictures. Thanks for visiting.
@Daryl: Thanks for your comment.
Ken McCoy from Orlando-Daytona Beach, FL, United States
Great shot! I like how the plants in the foreground are "looking at" the mountains.
18 Nov 2008 4:42am
@Ken McCoy: Thanks for comment and visiting. See you.
Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia
Yes, this does look a lot more welcoming than the previous scene! Excellent composition with all those layers of interest from foreground to distance.
18 Nov 2008 8:21pm
@Andrew Gould: Thanks for the fine description of the composition.
@Nubia: Thanks for comment and visit. See you again.
