toby snelgrove...
ohhh this is nice … great everything .. ditto with Jeremy .. I read some of you comments such as “the lighting was there” .. look, Miron, you chose to “find” that picture and “chose” to take it with the conditions that existed … I am sure you passed up lots of images where the elements were not right. Right? You have the eye.
Scott Ludwig

Love this…it is looks like a hand/arm is coming out to be saved. Even in a desert there is always hope for life..love all the levels this photo gives. Black and white makes it look real and haunting. Desperate stuck in the sand but also gives hope too.

RosaCobos
It reminded me of an arm….
protruding from the sand..
Then… it became to me the possibility..
of … mind me..! the Hholy Cross partially buried by the weight of the many souls that have gone since Chrits was crucified…
I do not know… but I could see the rest of the Cross.. unto the dark and fresh sand..
And then..
The shadow became human…. chabging of place…
with the sun..
like we do..
