A very appealing landscape with those lovely foreground patterns and textures combined with the warm glow.

Lovely patterns in the FG sand/soil. Nice warm tones as well. Somehow for this image, I would have preferred the ULC without the clouds. Just my tastes though :)

the FG is gorgeous, excellent combination between two subjects or we can say ideas

I like the warm color and the texture of the FG. I do find the dark cloud in the ULC to be a bit distracting, but not a deal killer.

Striking, Abdulmajeed! I love the shapes, textures, lines, and colors.

A very pretty monochromatic shot. The foreground patterns and textures are very interesting.

I like the stark, desolate feeling of this photo. This might be a bit too yellow for my tastes, but it does give it an artistic effect that it sounds like you may have been going for. Also, darkening the sky a tad may be an option.

This is a quite appealing image. I love those textures and the nice glow of the light. The cloud on the top left corner however becomes too heavy in the composition, ...but that is something you could not have done anything against! Really lovely how you composed so close to the ground...

Well done Abdulmajeed. You handeled this very pretty light well. I also like the texture in the FG and the way you've placed it in the frame.

Abdulmajeed,

I really like the color and toning you've presented this scene with. I think it's fitting and well done. The mud flats are fascinating and make for great element in the landscape. I'm wondering if you have additional captures from here with different focal lengths and perspectives. I would love to see a viewpoint that is looking more downward and more dedicated to the patterns in the drying mud. Of course that is much different than this landscape that you have presented here. Still, this one works very well for me.

The foreground texture is amazing and works perfectly with the warm light. Neat technique to achieve this warm glow.

Very interesting blend of textures and I like the warm tone- works with the cracked earth. Hope you got some tight shots of the earth folds - might make for a nice abstract too.
