Mud flatt canyon

Hi there

Theres a place i know, that when the tyde goes out it shows the mud flatts.Which in turn shows all the channels that helps drain the water.They all look like "canyons" in the mud .

C & C welcome

Thanks for looking

Well the composition certainly works for me. Maybe the highlights at the upper right third might benefit from a little burning in to tone them down a bit - but I guess that is personal taste. Certainly a nice B&W study that I would have been very pleased to have taken.

Hi Alan
it looks like it was done with Pencil quite artistic.

Excellent patterns and textures Alan. And the lead in lines work well too.

Well seen and a pleasing crop!

I like this a lot, very well done but would agree on the highlight work suggested.

Great idea - I didn't think of that while lying on the mudflats last week...!

Love the patterns and texture and the monochrome rendition.
If you get a further oppurtunity at this spot,I bet a polarizer would work wonders in reducing a liitle of the reflected light on the top and right-hand side of the scene.

Well seen.

Thanks ALL for your comments

When i viset again i might just try a polarizer, hmmmm.

Just goes to show that a good eye can spot shots in the most unlikely locations.

I like this a lot and would have bookmarked it as a possible winner of the fortnightly challenge (where did that go?)
