Outstanding shot Ronald!

It has a very abstact quality. The little bushes (I know because I visited this place) could also be a group of trees. This play with the (unclear) scale makes this shot.

Excellent image Ronald! I really like the spotlight effect here. Nice use of light and shadow. Simple, but powerful.

WOW, I almost missed this wonderful take, Ronald. I've seen scads of images from DVNP, but this one is very unique from that area. Excellent work.......
