      This is crazy. Like they've awakened in some sort of surreal dream world and are marveling at all that's around them. Your Tottori shots are awesome. Each one distinct with its own narrative but would all work well together.

      It's a great location because you have the texture of the sand, wind, dunes, the ocean, open space, and people. I'd go back every year just to do more photography there.

      I love the dream-like feel of this and their captivated expressions. And of course the sand is so beautiful. I can just feel the wind!

      The composition of your shots just blows me away. Incredible.

      Lovely composition, stephen. The image has real commercial potential too!

    27. MdKiStLeR (13 months ago | reply)

      No, not posting. In fact may take a break. Explore robbed me by putting in a couple of images retroactively. Not much fun when you can't enjoy it at the time.

      It looks like a scene out of a movie (or for a movie). Beautiful sense of surrealness. Your viewing angle and composition are perfect.

      Excellent patterns and textures. I like that you can see from the hair of the women the wind is really blowing.
