Beautiful image. The play of sun and shadow, the leading line that pulls the eye into the image and all of the shapes in the sand dunes work really well to create a fine image.

Wonderful, powerful image and composition, Hamed. The geometry of the foreground kind of reminds me of 2001 A Space Odyssey. Nice work!

so if it's 1/4 empty, does that make it 3/4 full?

Beautiful shot, Hamed!

Every new image from you is my new favorite. It seems the empty quarter is only devoid of people but full of wonderful photographic opportunities. The light on the fg dune is incredible and the composition flawless.

Yes, I am enjoying this... very much. The jagged ridges of light on the right side fg make this image for me. Beautiful!

This is absolutely gorgeous, Hamed! I love the sunstar and the lighting is perfect for bringing out all those wonderful details and textures in the dunes.

Wonderful image Hamed. Super fore ground and leading line and beautiful sky and sun. You killed it my friend.

That is one neat dune angling back into the sunburst, Hamed. Very well done.

Gorgeous Hamed, you're composition is only bested by your post-processing, which is wonderful. Every dark area of the scene holds detail, and the lit areas look more like cast iron than sand. Very well done.
