Have i mentioned i love my new 24mm TS-E? :biggrin:
This is from shortly after sunrise a couple weeks back,(Great Sand Dunes) I was intrigued by the great shapes/curves here and the fractal nature of the lines as you look back in space.
5Dmkii; 24mmTS, 1/5s at f/9
C&C Welcome!

The thumbnail didn't excite me at all, but this is a nice improvement on that. Lovely texture and shapes. I do wish the FG shadow was just a little darker though.

Beautiful large scale abstract Stan. I like the textures and light. Looks like a giant wave of sand. Super detail.

BTW - Did I ever mention I love my 24mm TS-E? :wavey:

Nice! I like the balance between light/dark, texture/pattern. Give the image a very tactile feel to it.

Nice one. The fg texture, lines and form really come together to create an interesting image.

The details in the foreground shadow are amazing and the light/shadow line looks like it could cut. Beautiful abstract.

Love the simplicity, the strong diagonal, the incredible textures in the sand. Stunning work.

Stan,

The detail here is almost scary it looks like the dune is about to envelop my car. Or this is an ant farm without any ants. Very nice detail all the way through.

Nice sandy abstract Stan. Might consider a crop from the bottom so that the dune line starts from the LRHC. :wavey:
