    The shadow adds a great POI. The leg must make walking along the dune face easier.....

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    I have no issues with you editing my photos

    Great work, GB. Well done, perfect. No high marks here on originality as these have been done over and over ( what hasn't) but you have yours now and its a top notch piece at that.
    Fine stuff.

    Re: Self Portrait

    Thanks everyone. I'm still trying to get used to the bright colors and unconventional composition myself (that crazy dune shadow), but glad you like it.

    It is a great photo, and a frequent target. I am not sure I see the artistry.
