A quote from a book I currently have checked out from our library: "Granted, light is what reveals, but even when that light is jaw-dropping and marvelous, there is still the matter of "On what is the light falling?" Certainly, every photographer I know whose work I admire is aware that light can be the major element of a photograph. They are also aware of the obvious fact that beautiful light can fall on something that is not particularly interesting to shoot."

Is that a dune in your photograph?
