These are awesome photos, @kiekie. And well taken.

Meanwhile, i would like to recommend that when posting such quality photos, it would be more engaging if you added more descriptions. Even this way, they are really nice, but i can only imagine if you elaborated a little more on your trip, and gave some detailed talk on the different photos. But anyway, this is just my opinion, i hope it helps.

Otherwise, this is an original piece of photo work. So I am going to feature this post in the next Xposed Curator's Rebound #38. You may find details about it Xposed Curator's Rebound

My hope is to bring your quality work here the exposure it deserves, and with it, hopefully some additional rewards.

Best wishes, @mirrors

thank you for your advice and exposure

Really awesome shots, @kiekie, looks like this trip was mind blowing!
