Description Erosion structures forming next to heights, miniature versions of them can easily be found near sand heaps.
In the foreground, the female of a small mesosaltator species that reduced its hind legs to fan-bearing structures feeds on a wax-coated, succulent vermiphyte while two males frantically try to get her attention.

Well rendered scene. Gives an idea of how they lived.

Thanks, but those aren't dinosaurs, but a species of these aliens:

Well gee, thanks for reminding me about my geology test. -.-' 
jk, this is awesome man! I love the creatures and the environment! My geology class saw some spectacular alluvial fans in Death Valley last year. Your work is so creative and beautiful!

Death Valley must be an impressive place to visit. The most interesting place I had visited during studies was the area near Solnhofen, with fossilized sponge reefs poking out of forested hills and very low clouds floating past them.

That sounds really cool! That sounds like a spectacular sight! I live in the western united states, theres a ton of awesome geology here! Death valley was incredible, windy as hell. XD Hot, obviously. There are fish there...in the middle of this place there are fish!!! in these itty bitty streams coming from the alluvial fans. The geology is spectacular. Dante's view was where we saw the alluvial fans. It's also a Star Wars film location...(you'll never find a more wrenched hive of scum and villainy...) We also got to see Mississippian (Early Carboniferous) period sponge and reef fossils, I found some rugose coral! It was a fantastic trip!

I really really love this. Your style is realistic and very pleasing to look at. Made me think Wayne Barlowe. Which software do you use?
