I do prefer yesterday's, but I still love these two more than the other sand ones you posted ;) Like you said, a better sense of scale.

It would be difficult to beat yesterdays ... but perhaps this is a bit of social history.' Maybe the guy who tipped over the work bench and walked out on the job yelled ''Sod this for a bag of sand'' (corrupted quote).

Really like this shot, like the burning that I think you have applied to the sand to give shadowing

I think this one is better. I mean more "chromasia-style". Pretty nice tones.

It looks almost like a moon landscape. I think I like this one more than yesterday's, but then again, that one was nice as well...

I think as far as the titles go, yesterday's seems more "the edge of nowhere," it looks like a forgotten outpost. As far as todays image is concerned, I find it interesting that there is a rather sturdy table at the edge of nowhere. I imagine that may come in handy when completing all the necessary paperwork to go past 'the edge of nowhere.' :-) Great images!

Surreal colours and definitely a sense of desert rather than beach.

if it wasn't for the sky, I'd guess this image was shot on Mars or something... Don't know why but the processing gives it a very spacey look.

David. I spent quite a few moments looking at this one. The lighting is excellent and ads to the texture. I noticed that it was HDR. You know me, often visit, less so on the comments, but this shot has a certain something in the lighting that just...well, does it for me.

I actually like this better in spite of the HDR! Fab.

I much prefer this one David! The sharpness and the lighting on the object really do it for me! bravo!

I like the mystery of this one.

FANTASTIC

This is a wonderful image. I love the subtle tones of the sky. Great work as always.

Nice angle and colours. I like the perspective. Seems like the blackpool beach doubles as a junkyard.

i really like the tones. the sky matches the sand very well. Its an excellent photo.

I appreciate the mood you've woven into this image. The rocks give it an otherworldly feel.

Beautiful image. Fantastic perspective.

When I took the first look at this one, I could swear you used the flash. Apparently not. Great work! =)

I prefer this one. In yesterday's, the sand was just sand. In this, however, the sand seems as if something malevolent. It almost looks like a special-effects shot. It's kind of strange and disturbing. The perspective is fantastic, and the desert seems both desolate and alive. I don't comment here often, but I think this is one of the best shots you've posted in ages. How much post-processing was involved? I'd love to see the unprocessed RAW.

I think this shot is good too, but of the two, I prefer yesterdays. That one had a much more lonely feel to it whereas this one is good, but just makes me think of any beach. Nicely done on both photos! Keep up the great work.

Hi David - this has turned out really well. I've been meaning to process the 7up one but haven't got round to it. Sky here is nicely done.. also, did u apply sharpening selectively to the sand?

Love the processing here. The sand in the foreground is particularly good.

Such a well-processed image. Great detail and color. I like the DOF.

beautifully done..

like a dead horse on the sand...

This is beautiful Dave! This is my fav of the trip shots so far! The desert must have known that you were coming to provide this great prop to! mal

Thanks everyone.

Nice intimate study. The spacial dimension although not so obvious as in yesterday's, is actually there if one peers into the distance. Lovely texture in the sand and softness in the sky.

A fantastic image. I love the yellowed sky and how well it compliments the sand. Very well done.
