Wonderful Peter...A clever use of lighting & lines to draw the eye to the subject, which tells a simple story. Love the blowing sand, especially that it's in someone else's photo. Not quite so much fun when you are having to deal with it yourself...:Whoa!:

Thanks Don...Blowing sand is not much fun..but you do get a free "facial" did nt need to exfoliate for weeks afterwards... I agree about the leading lines...I have processed this a few times all the other attempt just didn't feel right...but I like this one..
Thanks for comments , always appreciated

Something different Peter - I've been enjoying your new high key series a lot.
I do like the empty space all around and the central placement of the hiker...though I think shaving some off the top would be equally nice?

[Diane Miller]

Different and very nice! Not so sure about the central placement of the hiker -- I think Morkel has a good idea.

Classic high key image and very well done. Good use of leading lines to bring the eye to the figure on the summit. I think I may be tempted to take a bit off the left as I feel this is dead space which draws my eye a little. Like it a lot.

[Andrew McLachlan]

Very nicely composed Peter...I like the lone man placed dead center :)

Another finely composed and processed image Peter.
