Photographer's Note
The Wave area is rather small and that what most people come to see and therefore it is busy here even though only limited number of permit were given for people to visit, imagine if it open to all. It would be a zoo and the fragile landmark will be destroyed within days.
This was taken later in the day, which was not ideal because the sun was too low and it is all in the shadow, but I like the deep earth tone though there was lack of depth. 5:00 pm, we were the only two left in this whole place there was nothing but the sound of wind. We headed back before it got too dark and we had to walk the last part in the dark with flash light.

hi way. incredible place on earth, a gift of nature to humanity. but yes, unfortunately human is ungrateful and would turn this place into a mess given the chance. i remember seeing a youtube video where some guys were having fun breaking some brittle rocks in there. so, i am happy to hear that only a limited number of permitted people can get in there. i love the pin sharp 5D quality and your immaculate finishing. it looks soooo real and beautiful. have a great new year.

Hello Way,
Your photo makes me ponder what more wonders nature has in store for us. Wonderful natural colors and the contrast between the sky and the rocks is so eye-catching. Excellent composition to catch the reflections in the small lake. Thanks for sharing an unique place, which I have not seen before and that too with great sharpness and picture quality.
Wish you a very happy and prosperous 2014 and hope to see more such wonderful places and moments from you!

Hello Way,
You must have visited more natural wonders of the US than most people and your collection of photos of marvellously shaped rocks must be astonishing. Your choice of POV and your treatment of light, shades and colors always seem to make the most of the fantastic sceneries you visit. Like so many times before I am filled with amazement at this view and the technical perfection of the photo.
Kind regards and a happy 2014.

Hi Way
Absolutely amazing wave rock formation and a kind of surreal and most unusual Your pov and processing shows it off excellently and what I like here, apart from the colour and lines, is the fact that it needs no indication of scale also hard to believe these are natural colours. The wave and curves all seem to converge at one point and this gives the shot a lively feeling of 'movement', the contrast to blue sky is just wonderful. Well the light came good for a short period even without sunshine, i think regardless how many times this place is captured its every shot is/should be different. Your effort, including the hike is well worth it for such a grand scale view like this, a sight to behold !!!!! Another topnotch
Have a great 2014.
Warm regards

Bonjour Wayne
Cette photo est une petite merveille. Je suis un petit peu jaloux. Tu as su saisir l'essence de ce paysage avec talent et avec une belle technique. J'aime le jeu des lignes courbes et les reflets dans les eaux du dιsert.
Bonne et heureuse annιe

Rocks formation in a most impressive view over the desert pond, Way.
Stretched lines as a result of wind and water erosion for millions of years, created a superb sight and intriguing to look at.
Technical-details immaculately collected.

Hello Way,
A soft lightning filtered through the clouds is also working, even if more difficult to manage when shoting.
The crop you did to be less rectangular is giving a well balanced view.

Hi Way,
I realize how many of your outstanding shots I have missed over the last months... Shame on me!
Your talent is undeniable and the quality is constant, putting you on this pedestal of pro photographer. This isn't a result you can achieve overnight, it takes years to understand what you are doing, to develop your eye and to get the best of any given scene.
Here, I admire the use you have made out of the rock wall that serves as a visual anchor, but that also brings so much depth throughout the image. The colours are beautiful, or rather stunning, simply because they appear natural. The landscape is somehow simple, but taken with obvious meticulousity and artistic flair.
Calm, yes, remarkable, for sure.
Cheers my friend!

Hi Way,
this is absolutely spectacular. The place is so unique. I really dream about visiting it someday.
Your composition is brilliant, so well thought through. All curves seem to go well together drawing amazing shapes. The water puddle is a great bonus providing the chance for the reflection which you have well used. The clouds in the sky draw some pleasant shapes too.
Breath taking scenery!
Excellent work!!

I really dream about visiting this place, it must be fantastic for photography. The natural lines of the rocks make great perspective lines that add depth and you used them perfectly in your composition. Colours and sharpnness are excellent. Really a great shot !

Hello Way
The lack of light has maybe helped, not only by clearing the place of people, but by giving you flat light, which curiously seems to have accentuated the folds and patterns in the rock, allowing them to speak for themselves as it were. Just gorgeous work, beautifully composed, and technically as well as aesthetically impeccable.

Dearest NBF
Happy, happy New Year dear friend! I wish you the best of fun, love, family, travel and of course some naughtiness thrown in, and I'm sure you celebrated in your usual grand style.
I make no secret of the fact that your photos blow me away, but this one blows me away more than usual. What a wonderful symphony of texture and rich colour, the lines all serve to guide the eye around the frame like they're dancing. The reflections, the clouds the textures...all amazing, thanks so much for sharing this rare and endangered beauty with us.

Hi Way,
This is one of those images that just leaves me awestruck by natures beauty...and the work of the photographer really brings it to life! :) An outstanding shot to say the least, this really is something awesome! The rock pattern/swirl is mesmerizing, I have to think there's a never ending well of photo opportunities. I might have a mental break down trying to decide where to begin!? :) A remarkable photo Way, you've done it justice! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. All the best to you and yours in 2014.
Friendly wishes,
Jason

Hola Way
First the note, also I love to stay the last, my great experince was in Pompey, they were closing and I stay alone walking in this dead city od dead, impresive experience, not turist and silence
Not danger at all because I knew the gardians must wait for me alerted by some friend
About your as always original and creative capture, I believe the sun will add stricking contrast, that way,only with the interesting sky, is better for admire your POV and the textures of the stones, waves and waves of them giving a sense of mouvement
Wish you a great 2014 with more special photos

I have seen a few pictures from you & a few others from this massively interesting rock structure & yet this is the first time I am seeing the picture with a 'twist'...that with the small puddle which makes this all the more delightful. Did it rain the previous night to create this puddle.
Another superb shot from you!
