| Reason For Making the Image |
I was in Death Valley, CA taking early morning shots of sand dunes. Unfortunately (or so I thought at the time) it was a cloudy morning, so the sharp, distinct shadows that I was hoping for were absent. Instead they were replaced by subtle, low contrast, diffuse shadows. Although it didn’t think it worked in color, I was fairly pleased with a black and white rendering of the image. |
