This technique is used more and more, but I think your result is really particular and beautiful. You have shaped the 3-dimensional quality of the rock with your light, while often this type of image can look rather flat. Congrats! That is a striking image Jim!

Lovely composition, and I love the rich colors.

Joshua Tree is a magical place! It is one of a few places in CA that has some of the enchantment of New Mexico. I would love to see more of your shots on Joshua Tree. Do you have a web site I can visit? Ken to Jim Patterson:

Or was it just me seeing this?? Nice shot Jim. At first glance it looked to me like a hand, with fingers bent and the moon was in the cup of the index finger and bent-in thumb.
