A very impressive image with great tonal strength to depict outstanding texture with the magic of b/w. Bumping up.

this is getting a bit close to a picture of artwork isn't it? I like it though, but somehow I think I would've preferred a desaturated image instead of grayscale - 7

Are these actually made out of sand? And if so, where is this?

Wow. Really neat. Definately some texture in the sand. I like the angle you chose to shoot this as. Maybe a tad close to the mans head for the crop on the left side of the photo, but otherwise ok. The line of people creates a nice diagonal. The background works really well for me. I like how we can see it just enough to tell what's back there, but it's blurred enough to seperate it from your main subject. Black and white seems ok, but I do wonder what these guys looked like in color. Is it grey sand or yellowish sand? Lighting seems good to me as well. I think the shadows add to the shot. Overall really nice. ~Heather~

I really like this image and it would have been great in texture with a bit more contrast. Perhaps more of a closeup on the first image and leave the others blured.
