Thanks to all who took part in last week's playing card challenge. This week, as the weather gets colder here in the North, I thought we might go somewhere warm, very warm! So here we have a sandy desert, what will you make with it?

 

The “rules”:

  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!

 

To download the image below at 3840 x 2160 pixels, with an embedded ICC colour profile (sRGB), hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

 

When posting back your image – please use the Blue reply button in this first post. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun.

 

Dave

This is another beautiful image, Dave, and very appropriate as we are all seeking our own little oasis of a sort during this pandemic. I did have to listen to the Stevie Wonder song again. 😊

The first monolith showed up mysteriously in Utah this month. Now it seems that they’re popping up all over the place.

Shades of Arthur C. Clarke?  I have been wondering since I saw that monolith.

An appropriate mix Jacob. I wonder though with the oasis on the hill whether we will lose the water soon?

That is worrying, Dave. I had a delusion about how a dry desert delusion might look, loosely based on the mirage concept, only in the sand rather than above it. And when I saw the Giza colours it had to appear there. And then I had the trouble of getting rid of all the visitors that kept getting in the way, so some brickwork was needed.
