About the Image(s)
Taken with a Sony A7R5; 1/200 at F4.0; ISO 500, 68mm.
This image was taken at Young State Park, near Petoskey, MI just prior to sunset. I applied a linear gradient above the right diagonal, opened the shadows in the foreground, and converted it to b/w with a Silver Effects filter which added grain/texture.

Dean, I like what you did with the grain and texture in the main one. It makes it more mysterious and interesting to look at. Posted: 10/08/2026 01:57:28

Great image Dean! Posted: 10/11/2026 22:00:45
I too really like how you were able to capture the grain and the texture so clearly. This reminds of b/w film. Posted: 10/12/2026 08:42:19
Love the image, you can't tell if the imprints are raised our sunken into the sand. Great optical allusion. Posted: 10/13/2026 02:22:04
