James,

Because you asked, here are a few pix from our recent workshop in Death Valley. It was a pleasure to meet you and I look forward to the growth of your site.


Dawn in the Dunes


Moonrise at Aguereberry Point


The Racetrack

David!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing these. They are all quite good. I have not yet posted any of my shots from Aguereberry yet. I will post some tonight when I get in from work.

On another note, thank you again for sending me back my hat and mug (I left them and enough peanut butter and Jelly to sink a ship) in David's truck when he dropped me off in Vegas.

I have been posting my shots over the last couple of weeks and am trying to write a piece on the group experience. It was certainly valuable for me.

Cheers
James

Yes, lovely shots David, and enjoyed a look at your home-pages. The Galapagos trip would be unforgettable. Also like the Shakespeare series, will it be continuing?

Hello David,
Welcome to the forum. Looks like you guys had a great trip out there. I like the dunes shot, and the race track one is cool too. It always amazes me when I look these race track photos.

First shot....great lines and use of frame space. The contrasting blues and tans are echo of the cold nights and hot days. Very balanced shot. Only notable issue is the grain (parden the pun) in the sand on the blue side of the first dune.....maybe some selective noise reduction?

2nd shot...mixed feelings on this shot. WIshing the rocks were bathed with warm light...but of course...you deal with what is given to you. Given what you had...this is first rate.

3rd shot ....Nice set of lines....zig zagging across the screen drawing your eyes across the entire composition. Love it.
