The photo that I am going to describe was taken during my recent trip to Bali. This photo depicts the vast rice terraces present in Bali. It shows the lush green color that attracts viewers. Bali is primarily an agricultural island and is a hilly region. As it moves towards tourism, I think more and more land will be used for buildings. More deforestation and more rice fields are being used for the construction of buildings and other commercial purposes. This photo is a little sentimental to me because I think in the future, Bali will not be as natural and original. So this photo will be proof of how Bali was. It was taken with my drone camera, showing a bird's eye perspective of the rice fields. The rice needs stagnation of water, so ridges and furrows were built around the hills for that. This also elevates the photo with a more scenic view. I think the photo is very good in terms of composition. The color grading I did also enhanced the photo. That's the reason this photo is very close to me. Thank you for watching.
