Very cool colors, textures, and composition. "simple and elegant" describes this well!

The gold color is very sweet here, Hamed. Good balance of tones as well. Very well done.

Excellent comp, and great processing. I'm curious... Is that the natural sky color, or did you put a slight effect (such as a photo filter in processing) on it to warm it up? I really like the mood, and since I live near the mountains, I wouldn't know what is normal or an effect! Either way, I really like this.

Again a great composition and use of texture. The only nit I might have is that the smother part of the dune at the top seems just a bit bright.

Hamed,

Great to see the combination of rock and sand here. I get the distinct impression you're at the very edge of the dune field - transitioning between one environment/geology to another. Another great job with the sun too!
