Continuing on from Part 1 of this thread, this post contains shots of figures in the landscape.

I gave myself a few basic ideas for figure shots and then tried experimenting with them to achieve different looks. A great setting to be experimenting with this kind of stuff - I learnt a lot from it. None of these shots were posed (I only took one posed shot all weekend).


1. Rolf throwing sand in the air to check the wind (for hangliding suitability).


2. Jana taking Ziggy for a walk.


3. Rolf walking across a dune.


4. George waiting for something.


5. Rolf packing up his hanglider.


6. Rolf diving down the face of a dune.

Once again, amazing series with a definite feel of exploration of the unknown. Beautiful!

As I said before hard to pick a favorite.........but I'll go with Uli #2 your sepia tones really set this one off! Great feel to it!

Another vote for no 2, but I wish I could see the full size version so I can read whats on her shirt

Thanks for the comments

Uli, in shot #1 Rolf is testing the wind by throwing handfuls of sand into the air and watching how the sand gets blown around. He wanted to go hangliding, but there wasn't quite enough wind. I like the fact it's hard to work out what's going on, and to me it looks like a rocket taking off!

Schell, the T-shirt Jana is wearing says "Make Your Own Dinner".

I didn't get many photos of Jana or Ziggy on this trip, so I'm glad one of the few I did get turned out well.

HAHA I bet she would've needed that shirt too, being out camping with a bunch of guys

At first glance, I thought #1 was one of those jet trails you sometimes see in the sky
