billyboy
Varinia, i like this better than your other (gorgeous) Death Valley shot, mainly as it makes me feel the desert is slowly taking over the small bits of greenery that are trying in vain to hold it back. Also it’s an amazing composition and the colors are stunning. Nice work!
Globalphotos replied
Why thank you BB, found this one lurking on the HDD, so happy you like it :)))
lucin

Joanne Bradley
Fantastic shot! This place is so incredible isn’t it? I like how your composition shows a gradual lightening of color from the bottom to the top. It anchors the image and so it has great balance.
