younes

I absolutely love everything about this. The light, the tones, the BW conversion, the layers. Outstanding work. 

I am currently on a two week trip to Morocco, visiting with family and

preparing a photo tour. This sunset broke out of nowhere, minutes after a

downpour. The buildings on the background rock are part of a mausoleum

for a local saint.

Lovely image. That ice floe in the foreground puts it over the top! Well done.

I’ve been looking for this waterfall for nearly three years. I stumbled upon it

years ago, then couldn’t remember where the hell it was. After the long

hiatus, it was as much (dis)pleasure to meet again. This shot happened

only after I ate a few voracious gnats, but mostly after a countless many

aforementioned gnats freed me of a few pints of blood.

Enjoying the amazing view on the salt flats of Badwater Basin in California's

Death Valley. Does it get any better than this?

I love the soft tones and subtle gradations here. Those rolling hills are beautifully layered. Unusual but effective and peaceful composition.

This is one of my favorite images of 2010 as I realised a long standing wish

of mine to spend a few days in California's death valley. The sunset on that

night was pretty incredible and last for what seemed like hours sitting reds

and blues and pinks into the sky. However, as it tapered off, the sky took

on an otherworldly purplish tint that stood out beautifully against the dried

mud foreground. The three rocks in the foreground provided the perfect lead-

in to anchor the composition.

Your thoughts and critiques are most appreciated.

Thank you gentlemen! This is a shot that took a long time coming. After over a year of toiling in my archives I finally figured out what I wanted to do with it. I am glad to see it's resonating with you.

It has been a while since I've posted here...almost a year already. To mark

this occasion, I pick up where I left off with this image taken in the

Moroccan Atlas.

Simply gorgeous. Love everything about it. I think I may even prefer it over the already stellar landscape version.

Venturing in the High Atlas mountains of Morocco.

Impressive! How the heck did you get so close?

Lurking in the streets of Montreal since 1967...

Thanks for stopping by!

Stunning. I love everything about this shot.

Very original. Beautiful colours, textures and shapes. If there was a nit is that the light is a bit too harsh. This would be even stronger in softer early morning or late afternoon light. Still, nicely done.

Nice light, but the composition isn't as strong as in some other work you have from this area.

Your comments are appreciated. Cheers.

Magnificent scene. Beautifully captured.

Very beautiful shot Mike. I often struggle with night shots (mine or from others) as it is difficult to strike a balance between enough detail in the shadows and portraying that night feeling. I think you have struck that balance perfectly.

Burtonised or not, this is about as good as it gets. Nicely done and merry Xmas mr. Clapp.

A new location I just scouted this afternoon. Would love to heard your

thoughts.

Great light. I live the very simple composition and the contrast of the blue snow with the orange sky.

Simply OUTSTANDING LIGHT. Amazing view. This must have been something to witness live....

Love the light/shadow play
