A Fairy Chimney is a conical rock formation, typically found in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. It consists of a cap of hard rock resting on a cone-shaped pinnacle of softer rock. In Cappadocia, houses have been carved from these formations, and they make it a popular tourist destination.
I hope you enjoy my Kapadokya series.

I really like this photograph. Apart from the interesting subject, I admire how the towers of rock standout so well from the similar colour and toned background. The composition is fabulous too.

I've never seen anything like this, what an amazing sight! A brilliant capture!

Fantástica, mas cuidado, podem cair...

De verdad ¿pueden caer? ¿o la Sandra está bromeando! (For the non Portuguese and/or Spanish speakers, I'm wondering if these really can fall off, or if Sandra's having a joke.)
Love the composition. It has depth to it, and the processing's very good.

@Andrew Gould: Yes, they can fall!

20 Sep 2007 7:41am

Wonderful shot! Those rock formations almost resemble people.
20 Sep 2007 11:17pm
These formations are incredible! They look almost man-made! Nature never ceases to amaze me.

Eu vejo um professor e os seus 6 alunos. :) Será que estão sobre um feitiço qualquer e estão transformados em pedra? :)
