Great catch of life forms in harsh conditions. The processing supports this notion very well.

I can't stop looking at this community gathering for several minutes now. There are so many details (from the pair of boots at the lower left, to the man with the dog at the center, the trails in the snow and the people wandering at the edge of the group, and so much more). I also like how the image is composed with multiple layers of colors, (yellow hay, white snow, brown trees and gray skies) with all the people in between. Lovely!

Smart composition depicting a dichotomy in multiple ways (Sea vs. Sky, Free vs. Grounded, Sand vs. Water, Far vs. Close, Blue vs. Orange to name the ones I could spot)

I like how the calm sand and the raging skies are separated with the narrow band of white sea. The log adds to the interest.

Descent from the Cross

It makes me wish I could spend a few weeks just watching De Sousa at work. I understand it will allow me only a glimpse, and just at the technical aspect of his work, but it will sure be an experience I will cherish.
