Terrific - I love how the tree isn't bare. The little clumps of leaves (or whatever they are) give the image a nice contrast and texture. Also, I actually like the way the white parts of the images are blown out, because they're blown out so smoothly, giving the whole photo a sort of silky irridescent look. Very beautiful. |

The thing i like the best about this image is the combination of the wispy branches and clouds - the black versus white that seem to join together and continue across the image. The mountains in the back have just enough detail and the crispness of the foreground adds enough punch to really make you notice it.
I tend to agree with Jonfrommk - you have some really nice other images of white sands that are quite minimalistic to them - this image has a lot going on and may not fit real well with the other two images I have recently seen in your portfolio. But I am not really solid with triptych -so what do I know!!
Good luck at the Spoleto Festival - I hope you can get some good sales |

Catherine, I love the slightly minimalist feeling that you have been getting in some of the pictures in this challenge and I have to say all your pictures with sand in them have been stand outs to me and this is no exception. Beautiful image. For your triptych I hope you are going to use desolation and beyond as they were just beautiful images, not 100% sure whether they would work with this shot as perhaps there is a touch too much going on in it, but it might be worth trying them either side of this and seeing the effect. Whatever you go for I hope we get a chance to see the finished product |

Gorgeous range of tones throughout the image and good choice for this tree as a subject - the angling and "messy" branches give it character and gives us a good foreground point of interest in a spare and elegant landscape. |

Nicely done. I love the tones and lines of this photo. Can't wait to see your White Sands triptych. I visited once and loved it. |

This just pleaser me with the simplicity of the image, and just the way it looks..... You are doing such a great job with these landscapes.....
That tree is just awesome, and I love to have it in my garden.....
