Lost

Looking at this photo, you'd feel like you could easily get lost...but these dune at Death Valley are impossible to get lost in (which I appreciated).

Very nice Rick. I like the simple foreground leading to an increasingly dynamic background. The areas of light and shadow are wonderful.

Excellent work on this one Rick. The textures and shadows really do it for me here, plus the large FG with just enough BG to peer into the endless distance.

I like it - but I think I'd like it in color better..

I like this a lot, Rick. No nits. I haven't been down to Death Valley since I moved out of California. Maybe I'm overdue for a visit.

Looks grainy to me.

Sweet shot! I love the textures in the FG. Thanks again for rubbing it in that I didn't go with you.

^^grainy^^ .....what a card.

Fine shot Rick. Looks like an intimidating place the way you captured it here. Very compelling.

I found a "comp within a comp" that I like, too. Crop from the top to just above the black shadow on the right... Mmmm!

Thanks for the comments. Catherine, I like your comp suggestion! Thanks...
And Jeremy...you really should have cut that leash buddy...you really missed out!
Ned, I seem to have a hard time processing some of the dune images in color. The sand looks flat in some unless I punch it up in B&W for some reason. I'll get another color one out soon though...
And Mark...yooo fuhnny booouy!

Not my fave dune shot of yours, Rick, although Catherine's crop idea will tighten things up I think.
