Another version of the sand formations I've been photograph, this time in a more intimate view.
Print this one last week on 60x90 canvas to deliver on a client and it looks great!

Note: Please take a look at larger version for crisp detail on sand and little stones

This is a beautiful B&W shot. Really love the lighting throughout the scene.

Looks great Pedro!!!

There is a little haloing going on where the sky meets the land on the left and right. That cured this would be over the top.

That's a gorgeous black and white image, Pedro. The textures and tones work together beautifully.

Pedro,

This is sweet. It's very dramatic with lots of nice detail. There is a slight tone merger of the brightest part of the central tower with the cloud behind it. I'd also like a bit more detail in the shadows. The composition is wonderful, and I love the light.

Nice job!

A very imposing and graphic landscape image. A few little areas on the peak look a little too hot and lacking in detail but overall there's very little to criticise.

Excellent b/w conversion Pedro. The details in the large version are outstanding. I bet the 60x90 canvas looks great.

An excellent b&w image, Pedro. Wonderful processing to bring out all the texture and detail in the rock surface. I'm sure this must look fabulous in print.

For my tastes, this is an exceptional shot. The light really gives life to the scene and your B&W conversion is superb. One of the best B&W shots I've seen in a while.
