Visage of Age

[Morkel Erasmus]

I hope everyone is well!

It's been quiet here in Landscapes...and I am guilty as well. Totally swamped between work, family and my MBA studies.
This is a photo from our visit to Dead Vlei in Sossusvlei (Namibia) last year.

Techs:
Nikon D800
Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8 @ 24mm
f16 | 1/5 SS | ISO-100

Love your close ups of these wonderful dead trees they have so much character and symbolic meaning.

[Adhika Lie]

I like the repetition of the foreground throughout the image and there is indeed a characteristic to these trees. I've never been there so this might not even be possible... but here it is... I am wishing the trees were lit like the sand dunes in the BG. I feel like it could bring the scene to life.

[Morkel Erasmus]

Cheers gents.
Adhika - there is a MASSIVE dune behind my position here, to the east, thus at sunrise you won't have them let until the light is quite harsh...

[Andrew McLachlan]

Beautiful work as usual Morkel....I quite like the close-up perspective you chose for the foreground trees. I see one tiny dust bunny hiding in the upper left corner inside the triangle of blue sky.
