Intense. The spatial appearence is stunning.
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

I have a whole series of these. I won't presume to show you a bunch, but here is one more that has the same kind of effect. This too is Nikon D810, Nikkor El Nikkor 105 APO, and Zerene Stacker. This is a close-up of the left hand of a Tilopa rupa (statue), where he holds a fish. which is traditional of images of the Mahasiddha Tilopa.
