Ah! Don't know what it is (a leaf? Paper?), but I like it very much. The composition is good, and the colour scheme is so soothing. Lovely feel of depth to this. ~8

Hrm, edge of a sofa or pillow made out of a material like corduroy? Great lighting and lines here.

It does kind of remind me of my visit to the great sand dunes except I'm not sweating my butt off and my shoes aren't full of sand lol. Appears to be a pillow or couch cushion of some sort. Great job of using shadows and lights to make the viewer see something extra-ordinary. I do however think your DOF blurred the foreground just a tad to much making it less like an actual landscape but it really isn't that big if a deal, just my opinion.

Wow you got me stumped, I have no idea, but I like the way you set it up and the way the title makes you think Desert when you see the shot... Nice work..

looks like the carrying case that comes with a McPherson left handed ear wax remover, and a fried egg yolk in the background.

No idea what this is.....could be cardboard (probably not) or material on a cushion like courdoroy. Very effective DOF, good lighting to make it a good abstract and a good puzzle.

Back for another comment, someone in the forums said everyone was guessing her photo was courdoroy but it wasn't....I wonder was that you? If so, I will make another guess. Maybe it's the wing of a butterfly or a leaf.
