Sunset at Zabriskie Point

Looking towards the Panamints -

Last light on Funeral Mountains of the Amargosa Range -

I love the first one, especially the combination of rows of clouds and the layers of rocks. The second is more classical but very nice also with the contrasting colors of the sun lit mountain and the foreground hills.

[Paulo Bizarro]

Both nice, but I find the composition in #1 more dynamic, with the nice diagonal lines of the rock layers.

I like these. If #1 was mine I might try a slight curve application on the foreground.

Great work, as usual, Rajan. Both resemble paintings more than photographs - and I mean that as a compliment!. You've done a lovely job of showing enough to capture our interest, but not too much to give it all away.

Thanks, Francois, Paulo, Scott and Terry!

Terry, the temptation is there to jack up the contrast.
