Such wonderful textures and light brought to life in the processing. My kind of scene, as you know ;-)

I like the added grain, but I don't find the image otherwise ambiguous or dancing like a jmritz image. Great viewpoint over the area.

Congrats on the ribbon, Richard. Lovely tones and clarity of details. Love the larger version.

Just wonderful. I love sand and shadow images and Cape Cod can be a pretty cool place to take them at certain times of year, but the sheer scale of this and the sweeping wind swept lines is in another class altogether. Congrats on the wonderful score and the well deserved blue ribbon.

Congrats on the HM. Just a beautiful image. So now we are head to head in "Imagination"!

The Shepherd

An interesting scene with the mixture of animals. I find the light rather flat uniform (as others said it's more harsh than flat, I was using that term to mean without much variation, and that is not correct usage) and the image lacking the balance of tonal values that Ansel Adams was known for. But a good subject choice for a Black and White image. I like this more coming back a second time and have bumped it.
