This is another view of the Dead Vlei area at Sossusvlei.

I have said so many things about it, but it remains beautifull.

I hope you like this one.

Adjustment for shadows and highlites, crop and framed.

Hi Dirk,

Stil is breath taking. What an extrodinary place that must be.
Shot is very beautiful! Love the black and red but would love to see how the sky looked.

Hi Dirk

I never get tired of seeing pictures of this place. You captured the colors nicely and your composition is well done. What an amazing place to behold.

Hi Dirk,

That is real beauty in a strange dead kind of way. At first I thourght this was heavy PP because the colours are so unreal, but it is just an amazing place.

Cheers

Hi Dirk,

Very nice captured. Good light and POV. Well done!

Greetings
Arox

Excellent mood captured. Love the colors and the overall desolate feel you have portrayed.

Well seen,
David

Very nicely presented, Dirk. I like the pure black silhouettes of the dead trees. It's very other-worldly, or like some kind of underworld. Regards, Ken.

Hi Dirk,
Very creative compo ... a real work of art. I like your technique here. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hi there!
A very dramatic shot!
I love the deep red/brown colours, and your composition works very well. It looks like something you could find on a classic novel's cover.
Well done and TFS!

hi Dirk

wonderful shot to have this colorful tone, the sandy dune is a great attraction to compose this view

well done

tfs, bill

This is an amazing and powerful picture.
Very effective composition and the colours are so beautiful.
