Blurring the line between photography and art. Definitely not the usual fare. Does this do anything for anybody? Click on the pic to see it a little larger.

(By the way, can anyone tell me how to add a link and actually make it a link instead or having to cut and paste it into a browser?)

Russ, to make some thing a link at this before the URL: url (in brackets []), and this at the end: /url (also in brackets).
Your pic is here: http://www.alpinegalleria.com/p913171418/h22107731#h22107731

BTW, I really like your take on the dunes. It has a "mood" to it that I like... Nice job.

I love that image, Russ. Very creative and unique. You might consider brightening the darkest areas just a little bit, especially if you intend to print it, which you should!

Yeah, Russ, just click on the Text Style Menu at the bottom of the page for instructions.
And your shot is a lovely rendition of the dunes. An artistic effort for sure.

Definitely an artistic effect. The only thing I would want is a little lighter curve in the dark areas.

I'm usually not one for a lot of Digital Manipulation but this was pretty neat, looks to me very fluid or wet like water flowing in a stream.

Wow! Sort of resembles the colors in a slot canyon. I really do like this one a lot!

Hi Russ - a fun twist on a this location. Nice!

The combo of the spotlight and the snow streaks is just great, the dunes emerging out of darkness. Well seen and captured!
