Pinaki, this is an excellent Death Valley Landscape. I love the way all the light colored ridges and valleys lead your eye right to the top dark ridge. Gives a real feeling of depth. The lighting accentuates the story and it has very good tonality.   Posted: 03/07/2025 08:02:29

Great shapes and tones. The eroded slopes look like tentacles reaching out! Personally I'd like to see a little more at the top, but I understand there could have been distracting elements. What time of day was this image taken?   Posted: 03/22/2025 10:29:03

Pinaki, this is a most stunning image from you. Death Valley was always on my wish list but it won't happen now unfortunately. The colours, lighting and forms in your photograph are perfect. Very well done!   Posted: 03/23/2025 20:18:21

Zabriskie Point! I very much like how you composed this with the ridge running along the bottom and then up to the darker structure at the top, a natural leading line. The colors are amazing. I'm guessing you took this either just before sunrise or just after sunset, to get the even light and saturated colors. Am I right?   Posted: 03/26/2025 06:25:27
