@Marleen: Inderdaad een vulkaantje - ongelooflijk wat een stofwolken er uitkomen wanneer de sporen worden vrijgelaten. Helaas heb ik dat moment nog niet op foto kunnen vastleggen - wie weet ooit ...
@Gina: Thank you very much, Gina. Glad you stopped by again.
@Christine: Thanks Christine. Greetz !
@Dutçh: Glad to know you found "your" kind of photo .... :-DDD
I pay more attention to these details, inspired by your macro's, Kristen, so I'm not surprised with your comment ...
I was considering a square crop on this one (leaving the underside out of the image). Do you think that would be even stronger ?
@Dutçh: Thanks for you opinion, Kristen. I'll leave this image here as posted, but for further "use" I'll make a square crop.
@Marilla: So I think you agree on the opinion that making a square crop would even be stronger then ? Apreciate your comment, Marilla.
