Farasan Island in Saudi Arabia. Shot on Delta 100 and using 90mm Rodenstock and a lisco film holder .
this picture has been setting in my hard drive for a while. It is an example of how i have been toning images lately. I didn't like how bright it is until recently when I toned it to be not bright. I was working on it when I learned my uncle passed away. it has a special place.

Very nice photograph to remember your uncle. The peacefulness and the light in the distance is meaningful.

Both of these images are very nice, alcazar I. The dune shot is very reminiscent of the Weston's photos of the Oceano dunes in both style and quality. Great work!

They are both very good, and I do like the darkish tone on this one.

I am glad you like them. and I am very glad that my picture would remind you of a master like Edward Weston .. really happy.

Hi Jonathan,

I like this. I grew up in Pacifica, but I'm having trouble placing this. Where did you shoot it?

Thanks,

Fitzgerald's Marine Reserve. I think that's at or near Moss Beach.

I went camping in the western Sierra over the 4th of July weekend. I was in an area with numerous dome formations. I found this dead snag at the top of one of the domes and liked the juxtaposition of the young living tree and the stately old dead snag. The clouds below add to the feeling of being on top of the world.

Beautiful Harley... Did you use a red filter if I may ask?

[Harley Goldman]

I appreciate the comment, Tom. I used an orange filter.
