| Amazing shot - colors, balance, the torch lit kid and a sense of traveling - it makes me want to just go somewhere and be 'far away'! |

Wonderful in every way.. No mistake from my point of view.

| Not to nitpick, but the horizon looks ever so slightly crooked. Just rotate about .5 degrees CCW and it should be perfect. Excellent shot. |

Not only do I want to go to New Zealand now, but Australia as well! Oh well, maybe my relatives can put me up for a couple of nights ;-)
Great shot, love the calmness about it.
How did you manage not to get footprints in the sand? walk all the way around? |

| The color makes it. I don't think I've seen this great of color in a digital photo yet... it's so great! Well, pretty good composition, I may have liked to see a little bit more contrast out of the dunes, maybe crop a bit off the top. I see some blue in the dunes to the left... is this a result of a cooling filter or something? I would have liked to have seen the dunes not so cold. |

| Outstanding. By far the most evocative of the "Far Away" entries I have seen so far. I am returning to this and am still troubled by the slightly off-level horizon, but no matter. Beautiful gradient, wonderful star :-) |

| Oh my!!!! This evokes so much positive feelings. It's so beautiful, but the idea of being in a cozily lit tent sharing that beautiful place -- breathtaking! |

| Probably the best one of this contest. My only miniscule criticism is the portrait orientation. I think this one was more apt for landscape orientation. |

|
|
|
01/10/2007 10:34:42 AM |
| Awesome shot. Everything in the shot works to make that tent a powerful focal point, from the lighting and colour to leading lines in the sand on the dune and the lines of the horizon. Spectacular. |
