The curve and flow of the 'valley' is very eye catching. I've never seen an image of bisti like this, very unique.

The wash is a great leading line. You might bring the highlights in the b&w version down just a tad but thats minor. Nice comp

Another nice expansive comp. The large version makes for better viewing. I think the B&W shows the shapes and textures better in this light.

Definitely a strange land of desolation. Nice shot.
