Title: Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

This is an amazing area, I don't think it's as well known as Huangshan but it has similar geology.

Very nice. This looks like a challenging subject, shooting into the sky, surrounded by trees.

Excellent portfolio as well.
All these years, I thought that the mountains in classical Chinese painting were an exaggeration. Wrong!

Indeed. If anything, I like those even more than the one posted above.

It is quite something to see photos of them for the first time and realize how literal the paintings are!
