Stovepipe Wells Dunes Sunrise

I took this image as the first rays of sunrise began striking the

dunes. I have this as a color image and only upon finally working it

in B&W did I realize that I almost missed it's full potential. It's

seems so much more alive in the B&W. I toned it in Ektalure Cream

which to me, with it's slightly warm tone adds more to the feel of the

early morning sun striking the dunes. Your comments are always welcome.

Beautiful play of light and shadows. Very good composition also, and for shure nice toning. Regards.

I love this. The shades of gray with interplay of light and shadow makes this truly beautiful. Excellent work. Best regards.

Very well done. You are juggling with the light and shadows. Compliments and regards, El

Wonderful image with beautiful color and light. 7/7 anon. Best regards.

Beautiful contrast, nice image.

Dunes will be always an attractive subject and to do a lot with light and shadow on it,well done this shot in a very good ballance,regards.

Yet another wonderful edition to your folio! I really like checking out your folio and seeing what new additions from our Death Valley shoot you have worked up. This one has wonderful tonal range and some great shadows. Looking forward to getting the "3 Amigos " together in July!...Ray

Looks like you had a great, and very productive, trip to the dunes. This is another fantastic image.

although I'm no landscape photographer by any means I do very much enjoy looking at them. Not only because I enjoy looking at great photo's but also because of the way you boys use light. The best ones produce great results that way, as you proved here
