Nice work, Bill! I am particularly fond of the sunset and early AM shots; you've captured some extraordinary light in both of these, especially the sunset shot with the golden light coloring the salt. However, the sky in the pre-sunset shot's sky and clouds look unnaturally dark to me. Was the GND applied in the field? If it was done in Photoshop, it might be worth easing off the GND on that one.
Still, wonderful shots!
Yes Kathryn I did use a GND in the field, my memory says it looks pretty close to
what I saw in the field. The sky might be slightly darker, hard to say. I feel if I
lighten the sky it would decrease the drama of the shot. I have had a lot of feedback
both here and other places saying the sky is the part most people like about this shot.
I'll keep your comment in mind and may play with it in the future.

I was in front of you about 500 feet It was very cool sunset for sure. You did it justice.
Thanks Tomas, I admire your work, but I have to admit for a minute there, when you
were marching into my field of view, in front of everyone else. I felt like running
over there and slapping you upside the head. Luckily you and your friend kept going
and became tiny specks in my shot as I was shooting wide, so it wasn't an issue.
I would be interested in seeing your shots from there, I'm sure you got something
good. Hopefully you will post some here.
