Thanks for your visits and comments!

Simple and effective. Nice tones and very good texture. Well composed and detail even on the shadow. Regards.

I love your sand dunes shots... What a wonderful play of light and shadow and the composition is great as well, as usual.

Perfect. Congrats, Pete.

The shades of gray placed beside the black are creating an illusory effect. I can perceive some motion in the picture. Best regards.

When I saw this image in thumbnail in the cue, I thought this was a picture of water. Only the caption and a larger view of the texture clued me in on the idea that it was sand. I think that's good because it's a strong composition based on shapes and shadows and tone instead of context. That's a pretty strong point here.

 

I like some of the lines in the sand that you can see; in the frame, the ones that run more or less vertically to the plane of viewing; good delicate shadow detail.

 

For some reason, I find it hard to see the bands of gray in the shadow detail with my monitor; I suspect that this picture will do better printed than on screen.

 

I liked the slanting, diagonal nature of the shadows in the dips in the sand that are the subject here; it shows depth; the shadows are not overbearing; being able to see into the shadows and see the texture on the midtone highlight side keep this from being a cliche photo. I think a lot of people could have shot this at a higher contrast, and the photo would have looked like many others. Good job picking the soft treatment; it's a strong point.

 

Overall, good job. J.

Beautiful and interesting your composition made in b/w . Regards Dan .
