Charlie,
The dunes are exquisite and the cacti are truly stunning.

Leo,
We had to also have a copy of the set here as these uniquely show the 5th dimension, beyond time: sunset happening in time around a person's life.
Fasinating!

I shot a single sheet of film. It's drying as we speak. It will look very different from this.
OK, arm twisted and others more noble have posted yet better examples.....
Ha ha ha, not nearly as macho as you paint me. Actually my intent was to shoot with 2 new-2-me antique lenses. A Dagor, and a rather rare Protar IIa. When I got there I discovered I'd left the lenses at home, so set up with the venerable Voigtlander Heliar and did this shot. This was within minutes of the first shot I posted. Maybe 5 minutes earlier. Very different in it's feel.

I did my last serious colour photography in 1977 and I don't feel like going back to it even for a gorgeous sunset. Whether a sunset is a subject that can be done with merit on monochrome materials is a moot point. I happen to think so.

"Mission accomplished", Maris!
You put the sun, otherwise hidden by trees, in the water. The line to the boat is lyrical. Great touches in the verticals to counter the sweep of the scene. Yes, this works for me too!

Hi, Asher,
A great observation ndeed! But is emütlichkeit the delusion of the person said to be, or confessed to be "in comfort" or ourselves, the observers who read the signs above the gates and just continue making pies, pastries and and sausages and go on their merry way?
By the way, did you know that the "B" in that sign (it was, very un-German-like, in all upper case) was intentionally put on upside down by the inmates who installed the sign, as a subtle sign of disobedience. It stayed that way.
Best regards,
Doug

I like this one, for me it marks the transition between natural light and artificial light. A short story without words.
This has always been a favorite of mine.
