This photo was taken at Death Valley. Two images stitched taken at sunrise with the Canon 90mm TSE lens. The lens was also tilted in an effort to get the dunes and back mountains in the same plane of focus.
Comments appreciated!
Best,
Fred

Great shot Fred. Love the wavy shadows.

90 TS-E is great for landscape shots as well(among other things that it does so well).

Very nice Fred! Love the layers of progression through the image with the peaks growing in each. Love the placement of that little valley in the foreground too.

Love the depth and light/shadow play here, Fred. Very nicely done.
Makes me want a TS-E even more.

Nicely done Fred. These lenses do take some getting used to.

Excellent shot Fred!
f/8, I think you succeeded with the plane of focus.

Fred -

I would appreciate it if you would not post pictures using your 90 TS-E. I have a 24 PC-E and convinced myself I wouldn't need the 90, then you go and post these awesome photos with your 90 TS-E. Incredible catch of the light, DOF, and shadows! Excellent example of what the tool can do in the right hands.

I 'll direct my wife to your pics and use the excuse, "Look, without that lens I'll never get a picture like that."
If she buys my story I'll have a few suggestions for you regarding a sports car.

Hey Fred,

What a cool view! I really like seeing all those dune just going on and on...

I really like this image. The 90mm gives you just the right compression to my eye and the light is outstanding. Very fine.

A beauty, Fred. The wavy dunes and receding hills pull the eye right in.

Thanks jwin!
I absolutely love the 90TSE for landscapes. This is one sharp lens. I also have the 70-200mm f/4 but pretty much shoot around the same FL with the zoom. I wish Canon would update the design to tilt and shift would rotate independently.
Regards,
Fred

Thanks ckcarr,
The tilt gave the background mountains more sparkle. It's nice to be able to shoot at f/5.6 and f/8!

Your processing here is very film-like, which is awesome. The dunes of course are fantastic, but the blue sky is also very pleasing to the eye. It's great to see your recent work. You've been on a roll lately with your recent death valley trip. It's been years since I've seen you post this many shots. Any reason in particular you've decided to jump back into shooting so many landscapes?

Stunning, Fred. The creaminess here is very nice.

I was trying to figure out the direction here. I think this view is facing east towards the Panamints. I'm probably wrong.....
