Great shot.Would have liked to see more white range and less grey..looks muddy.

Muy bonita la composición. Me gusta el "ambiente" creado con el procesado. Felicidades Alek

this is awesome the way it is.

great photograph.

there was little white range it was a blizzard, thanks

wow - what a capture! I love how compressed the d.o.f feels.

Fantastic! Excellent feeling.

One of your best that I've seen thus far.

Thank You Scott ;) I am glad that at least one photo of my You like! Thanks for +fav! Pls, feel free take a look on my gallery, may be You will like and some others!

I like lots of your stuff Mikhail ;-) Still going through them buddy.

Scott don't think I'm bored but it is very interesting what do you think on all of this and to read your comments.

great image, the whispy clouds mirror the tree, fantastic landscape, i love deserts

great photo, so intense - the tree shadow on the ground, the clouds twirling on the sky... like it a lot!

thx to all! :))
joshua tree np is always a good location ;)

black shadow with a white cloud ... great

WOW!!

EXCELENT!!!

Wow

terrific image with the detail in the palm, 'talk to the hand', and the dof

Interesting treatment.

Am I missing something??? Where is/are the "Boats"?

well there is a boat there beamer, perhaps with a magnifying glass granted, but surely a harbour is enough of a suggestion of a boat where a boat could be so to speak,
then again perhaps all the boats have sailed
thanks for the comments

Like a painting, very nice!

I'm sorry, but I don't see what the motion blur adds to the subject...

there was no motion blur added to the subject i took the photo through the lens of my sunglasses, which also happen to be prescrition lenses.
that it dosn't work for you i accept and thanks for commenting

It really doesn't, but then this type of work is always controversial. I've seen other blurs by your hand (like 19423) which I like much better.

fair comment i don't disagree

coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

great texture and visual play on scale; take me to the desert on a macro shot

It's not actually very macro. These are temperature layers in snow being eroded by wind.

The area pictured is maybe 2 feet (1.5 meters) across.

dark, bur very classic !
maybe a (very) slight bright up to make the dent look less dominant.

There's always room for improvement.

Trasmite mucho. Me gusta. Enhorabuena

andrew, he looks like Ibsen, are you a time traveller?

Tremendous portrait.

The blur works very well with the creepy darkness here. Nicely done.

cheers thanks, both of you

wow, this is a beautiful image, nice work!

This is just beautiful, and reminds me of my own father's images. He would be a proud man had he produced something as good as this.

Scary!

Es muy bonita, transmite algo especial. Enhorabuena

Gracias Ana. Es un anochecer en las Salinas de San Pedro del Pinatar (Murcia),España. Coincido contigo en el "ambiente" especial de serenidad/calma que transmite. Saludos

beautiful elegance in abstraction of tones

It is an evening in some salt. I think I was at the proper time. Thanks
