Very neat composition - takes a few seconds to get a handle on it, which is good. Lovely texture too. Well done Hamed.

The sky feels as if it has a lot of swirling movement. For me the sky creates some great tension. What is winter like in UAE Hamed?

Incredible! I am visiting Saudi Arabia in two days and I hope to bring back some desert photos!

Wow what a sky! The comp is killer...minus it being just a bit too tight on the left side to let that rock breath. Overall though banger...

I agree, I do like the composition. Totally a different look using a fisheye. Sweet Work!!

Beautiful composition, Hamed! Awesome colors. Do these dunes move around or are they static? Must be an interesting environment to be in!

Looks like you received a lot of snow Hamed!

Fantastic sky and wonderful lead in lines of the foreground dunes. I like everything about this image. Can't wait for more! BTW - What is winter like in your part of the world?

Feels like being on a roller-coaster! Good use of the fisheye perspective. I love the dramatic light.

This is Awesome Hamed! The perspective and those arching clouds give the viewer a spinning/upside down effect, which is really neat. Can't wait to see more from your winter.

You know, this almost feels like some of the volcano pictures that have been showing up here. Neat comp and light.

I like all the swirling lines and beautiful colors. This is a very intriguing, though somewhat dizzying (in a good way) composition.

BTW, on this one if you reversed the right to left reading of this for us westerners (to left to right) I think it might even more strike a chord with us, since right to left for us causes subconscious tension.
