Looks like a herd of sidewinders went through your yard!
Nice shot!

THANK YOU for the nice comments, I appreciate them. Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment. I find the patterns in nature so interesting.

Except the idea of a herd, or worse yet, a thundering herd of sidewinders in my yard as descriptive as that is, might just give me nightmares! :biggrin:

One more --- a different perspective.

ˇFantástico! One of my favorite photographic studies is of sand dunes. You´ve really captured the simple beauty of nature here.

Lots of wind in BA this past few days, huh?

The sand is especially colorful in the late afternoons.

Bernie --- a big thanks to you -- glad you like the pictures!

Udo---yes it has been windy and those shadows only appear in the late afternoons --- I guess it is when all those sidewinders show up.

Enjoyed meeting you!

Dang that ISO setting! I hoped no one would notice that grainy noisy look. So I took a small part of one of the photos to photoshop just to see if I could disguise all that graininess, and get rid of those awful shadows at the same time. And here it is. :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Nature on speed setting.
