Love he contrast here Hamed. The wave front of the dunes is beautiful.

Hamed,
Simply gorgeous. I'm amazed at how you captured the sun without any flare or other artifacts. I especially like the rim lighting on that small piece of the ridge in the background. You really nailed this one. :toast: :toast:

Hamed, I just love the looks of the foreground here! The light, shadows and shapes are fantastic!. On this one I can see a crop eliminating the sun and sky so it just has the dark band across the top. That makes it look quite dramatic for me. Very nice just as you have it too! :toast:

I like the desolate feeling this invokes. Tough lighting expertly handled.

A little more graphic than your others. Pretty punchy. Nice one dude.

Nice contrast in this Hamed. Nice textures in the foreground and backround light. Quite different image from you. I like it. I also agree with Nick about cropping down from the top. But wonderful as is.

This is outstanding. The lines and contrast are very impressive. Great result in difficult light - you handled it expertly.

Beautiful shot. I agree with Nick as well, that a crop where the dark bank of sand it the top of the image is really interesting. I might have tried moving to where I could get the sun in the upper left, so the deep lines in the sand lead directly to it. Again, very well done.
