Hi everyone,

Another shot from the desert but this one is different :razz:

Hope you'll enjoy it. I have used PS CS3 & Nik color efex pro for the
processing. Is the color mode here working with the scene :confused:

Waiting 4 ur valueable comments.

Thanks in advance

This image uploaded from my BlackBerry device .. Is the resolution good ?

Hi Hamed - I love the folds in the sand and the overall composition - very interesting image. I do not find the color to be "natural" but I do like it. I think a bit more blue in the sky might be nice, but otherwise like the impact and feeling of the colors.

Resolution looks good, and it's a beautiful concept, great mix of simplicity and complexity. I would have to say that the sky is quite a bit brighter than what would be most desirable, at least at the top where I want it closer to the luminosity of the shadows in the dunes.

Beautiful perspective on the dunes and I like the split-toning used here.

The sand dunes are beautiful. I agree that the sky looks too bright.

nice curves and forms. sky may be a little bright. the colour is fine - one can really pick and choose whichever colour one wants for these night scenes (as our eyes don't perceive colour at night except on the brightest moonlit nights). i'm not convinced i would have picked this palette but that's completely personal!

Very unique image! The colour works well for me as does the overall composition.

I do like the color scheme here as it has a nighttime feel. Sort of wish the stars were a bit more prominent. Interesting how this still has your style 'cept with no sun.

Neat comp.. and works well. I like the tones in the dunes, but would prefer a slightly cooler sky WB...

Beautiful night shot. I'd only wish the stars were a bit brighter...more prominent

I like this a lot Hamed. I'll chime in and say that I'd prefer the sky to be a tad darker, but not much. I like the colors as well.
