The pic was taken with a Nikon D200 using a 18-200VR lens. Due to the rather unpleasant climate (warm, wind blown dust and flies) I did not want to mess about with any settings so programmed auto was used. The only post processing was tweaking the saturation in Office Picture Manager and a little cropping to get rid of an unwanted clump of grass.
This pic was taken in the Desert in the North Eastern corner of South Australia where I work on a fly in fly out roster. There is not a hell of a lot to do after work in a mining camp so I like to wander around the desert and take snaps of sand and other random things.. on the day I took this pic I was trying to recreate a scene from Star Wars using figurines, for a while I also had an obsession with wild plastic chairs… anyway spending a lot of time in the sand makes a guy appreciate the shapes, patterns and shadows that sand can throw, and when I saw what you see in the photo I was pretty impressed.
