Beautiful photos are nice views @borepstein, while good photos (not necessarily beautiful) that fit the target.
The question then is whether to be with a high skill and expensive gear to be able to produce good works as well as beautiful? The answer is no. In my opinion, it takes a "wow effect" to make our work memorable. To produce nice and beautiful photos, wow effect is needed to make a good photo more talk.
You've presented a photo representing both of them. An amazing photo result.

I am one of your Photo lovers.
