Just as I thought..

Looked up the meaning of 'sublime', found your image here. :o)


Nicely composed.

Curious as to what the source of the lighting is? (Can't shake the thought/idea that what I am seeing here is that of some car headlights?)


If you are feeling creatively ambitious, might wish to check out another member's recent postings. With respect to that of the photographic technique; 'painting with light'.

Bri; aka slybri.

It is an interesting and versatile method of lighting that can be employed to illuminate parts of your subject. Or, more of ... if so desired.

Best thing? As is usually the case, 'you' are in control of this facet.


Very nice work, Mary. Good good to 'see' your work once again.

Annnnd ... but of course, thank you for sharing this one with us. :o)


p.s. Some more reading on 'painting with light'.

This looks like a moonlit clump of grass on a beach. Very nicely done, Mary.

I really like the textures with the really cool lighting and shadows. To me it looks like it could be grainy snow or as Jimbob says sand, Which is it Mary.

The grain in the sand add such good grain to the b/w shot HF. Nice to see your feet again. :)

What a Great "eye" you have to "see" this shot Mary!!!
The shadows, texture and the lighting really make this a magnificant composition.
