I do like it... I feel a little strange for being mentioned in the 'artist comments' but that's cool.

I'm guessing you said I'd like it because the little lizard being a focus point but not the center of attention, and I do like that, but what gets me about this piece is the vibrant colors that are contrasted by crisp shadows falling over the dunes. I also love the choice for you to crop it narrow and tall like that and using the lines in the sand to cause the eye to sink into the photo as if you're walking into the scene. Can't forget those tiny little clouds up top, after living in the desert for a year, I've come to take great excitement in seeing clouds, even the little ones! Great photography man... looks like I'm not the only one to like it either! You seem to have a large fan base now!

Gonna have to this one too.

You mentioned something about adding more stuff to prints in one of your comments back to me. I'm thinking this will be a great idea for you, especialy if you keep adding more work like the ones you already have. Your photography is stunning. Is this what you do for a living?

Glad you like the choice of the desert, once you lived there nothing can be comparated to it...sorry for mentioning you in the comments area.
thank you for the fav+ ,

No problem, didn't mind being mentioned it was just unexpected I wish that I could live in a pretty desert like that instead of this one. The sand is dirty and full of trash...

lovely image...not too sure how it was edited but any more increase in colour saturation i think would have been too much

great shot - such a beautiful scenery but probably the best thing in it is the small lizard in front

this shot is really good. looks like you could just walk right into it and be in the desert.

Thank you for comment, no color editing has been done for the picture, I am trying to minimize Photoshoping on the photos,
nature is beatiful without PS
