Very unusual conditions at the ever-popular Mesquite Dunes in Death Valley provided exceptional photo ops last month. It was like being somewhere else. Never seen 'em like this before.

Hey Jeffrey!
Great light here, love your execution, i find the right side to be a bit distracting, i would try to crop the right side, leaving the trees in the center...

Cheers!

Very cool, Jeffrey. As much as I love the wider formats, I have to agree with Andrey here; I think the comp is stronger with the right side copped out and the bushes centered.

I like it as is. Very interesting interpretation of a familiar place.

Spectacular scene and superb execution! VERY big wall space now required. In fact, I can see this occupying nearly a full wall.

Ha-ha! It's like an optical illusion, or an Escher drawing.

Very nice Jeffrey!

You certainly did capture some fascinating conditions here Jeffrey. Great use of the long focal length to create a rather disorienting effect.

Hey Jeffrey,

That is very cool. What an interesting shot, and as Craig said it feels like an optical illusion.

I love shots that confuse the (my) mind, love the light!

Very nice Jeffrey
Between the visual effects, tonal range, & depth,
The perfect wall filling B&W!
I guess I need to be more patient when at the dunes next time

Thanks for posting

Jeffery,
This is a very fine image. I've come back to view it a few times and the more I see it the more I like it. Well seen and captured!

What a sweet shot. Definitely keep the crop, I love how the simple lines on the left lead to the more chaotic right side, whereupon the eye is pulled back to the stand of trees. Great job harnessing the stunning light.

Fine shot, great light. I like it just the way it is. Questions abound when you look at it!

Stupendous shot Jeffrey. The design with the abstract patterns are fantastic. (please leave it as is) One of my favorite black and white photos I've seen in a long time.

beautiful image. really like the composition and process.
if there is any nitpicking, I wish the DOF covers cloud and having more definition. Thank for sharing.
