raghuveermakala 0 Posted May 8, 2011 Shot shortly after sunset at Bisti badlands, New Mexico. This place is often referred to as "Cracked Eggs" or "The Alien Hatchery" for the rather unusually shaped rocks that appear to be sitting on pods. Critique/comments appreciated. Thanks for your time!

w-j-li 0 Posted May 8, 2011 Well composed. Love the contract of color in the sky and on the ground. The Light is fabulous on the "Eggs' and the small hills at the back. Is it over-sharpened? Or you do it on purpose? Learning. Best Regards, Link to comment

llgarcia 1 Posted May 10, 2011 This photo and the rest of your images in your folder, 'Landscapes III' are wonderful images. Places where extraordinary rock formation, rivers, dry forests and abnormal land expanse are well presented. Great photo and folder. Regards! Link to comment

raghuveermakala 0 Posted May 13, 2011 Thank you all for the comments and I'm glad many like it. The "Cracked Eggs" area plus the whole of Bisti/ De-Na-Zin Wilderness is an amazingly beautiful place with many weirdly shaped rock formations. I took this shot shortly after sunset after the long shadows were gone, but the rock formations still had some warm hues due to reflected light. This shot also looks quite good in B/W. Here's a link to that: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=13109954Wanghan,I did sharpen the photo both during HDR conversion as well as in PS. I reduced the size on purpose for uploading on P-N. If you're seeing it on a large screen, it may look oversharpened.Best Regards,Raghuveer Link to comment
