Great shot Julien. Tones, contrasts and muted colors all work well together. The composition looks fine to me but the top left hand corner is a little distracting.
Petros - Thanks for your comment, actually when I look again at the shoot I feel that a closer crop would have been an improvement. I know I could do this in PS but can never bring myself to crop, even on B&W. A dinosaur at 35! Comment both apprieciated & helpful. Julien :0)
Julien, you've done a great job capturing textures. Potentially, this is one great image. If I were to change anything, it would probably be to either incorporate more rocks at the bottom of the photo, or crop out 30% of the bottom part of the image. I feel that the image would be more balanced this way. Please keep posting, as I would love to see more of your work :-)
