    Andrew at the Dunes, Death Valley California

    This was taken in 2005 at the dunes, in Death Valley California.
    While my Photobuds immersed themselves in documenting the beauty of Nature's Splendor, to retain my sanity and keep from pushing sharp sticks into my eyes, I spent the six days taking pictures of them taking pictures.
    This is my bud Andrew, the Skiing Dentist, and a mean sports photographer, who spends a lot of time shooting his Daughter's World Cup Slalom ski races.
    motorized Nikon F2AS
    zoom-Nikkor 80~200 2.8 ED AIS manual focus
    Ektachrome 100 ISO colour slide
    probably 2.8 @ 1/125th

    Nice shot! Though, I wish the top of the dune did not transect Andrew's head...

    Richard,
    Thanks for commenting.
    This was shot from a distance with a zoom fully extended (200 mm), and there really wasn't much I could do to change position to eliminate the merger. I suppose I could have fooled with it in Photoshop, but in the end, I liked the composition and mood enough as it is to leave it alone.
