Namiba Desert

Comments Welcomed!

Dionys

can't believe noone has commented on this photograph. Has got to be the most interesting scenery I've seen. Foreground speaks for it self, but the backdrop *drops jaw* its surreal. A sky made of sand. How high do you think those sanddunes were? Thanks for sharing such original work.

Is this a composition of two images?

Excellent image. True art. 7/7

intersting composite

Dionys,

 

This is an excellent image. It seems that there are some people here who think this is a composite image. The Namib desert has dunes that reach to the sky. For some other surreal images, which include shots in Namibia like this, check out Art Wolfe's book "Edge of the Earth, Corner of the Sky." Dionys, like Art Wolfe, seems to have an eye for the surreal landscape. Great work!

Incredible backdrop. The smoothness and gradually changing tones/color of the background is fantastic.

No, I doubt this is a composite image. Namibia scenary actually looks like this. I have seen many images from this area and they are similar.

 

Lovely image!

This is one of my favorites. Congrats. - Sean

I like the silky texture of the red sand. Beautiful image!

This is a wonderful snap with a terrific scale of the background..! But there seems to be a slight loss of clarity in focus in the center...am wondering why..! Tremendous shot overall.

 

Wonderfulcolor and contrast between the smooth dunes and gnarled trees
