Help selecting image please!

[Greg Haag]

I was hoping I might get some help selecting an image please. I was asked to be a part of a charity art show, I ALWAYS say NO to something like this, but this time I was asked by my daughters mother-in-law. These are the images I am thinking about, I will probably print the long edge about 36". Thanks in advance, Greg

The first or second ones, depending on whether your (or the organization's) preference is for color or black and white. The color shot of Death Valley pops, but can be confusing if you don't know what you are looking at so I guess personally I'd go for the Mesquite Dunes.

If money is no object: I'd say - print 'm all ...

The second image (dunes) or the fifth (ocean waves) will have the most universal appeal, I think.

Personally I like them all, but for the task at hand, Dunes gets my vote as well.

Why do mothers in law always get away with this?

 

[MGrayson]

I like the sixth for its peace.

 

[jotloob]

Generally, people at these types of events want something to go with their couch; therefore 3 or 5.

Thank you to everyone for your help!

My vote is 6, the sound of the waves is easy to imagine while looking at this image

 

[algrove]

#1 and #2, but that is me.

 

[usm]

The first one. But I don’t believe that this will help you.

 

[jng]

#1 and #2, but that is me.

For me as well, with my own preference for #2.

P.S. Good practice to keep the daughter's mother-in-law happy!

My personal favorites are #3 and #6, but for universal appeal, I can see # 5.

And what I like about #3 is, because there are many photographs of monument valley, and the monuments don't change much, this makes the environment surrounding the monuments the difference maker, and I like the soft, subtle sky juxtaposed with the monuments. Again, a personal preference.

They're all great, it's hard to choose.

Agree that for mass appeal it's #5.

My personal favourite is #1 because of the ambiguity. Figuring out the scale of what I'm looking at requires a bit of effort, which I like. I also enjoy the strange colours in the rocks and the soils, and the textures of the landscape.

#2 for me….that dune image is stunning! but B&W doesn’t always have universal appeal

i really want to get the iq4 Achro out to some dunes like that some time!
