    This is great David. Nice composition using that line in the sand AND a couple others to draw attention right into the photo. I also like the use/capture of the shadowy sides of the hills. Very nice work!!

    Wow David, this desert series is fantastic. I really like this work. Well done.

  • thank you Simon – really very nice of you to comment — I am trying to get shots that dont mimic the others to try to keep the series from getting boring — dave

    Love this dune scene. Great composition light, color and perspective. My only suggestion is to crop the sky in half from above and selectively adjust the levels on it, to create a darker, bluer sky. (as is the sky is overexposed in compared to the dune.) this is an ideal situation for using an ND grad filter to compensate for the sky exposure.. Thanks for sharing with the Art of the Middle East group.

  • Hello Eyal – thanks for the comments — I did play with the sky a little – I will see if I can adjust the color a little more — this shot was into the direction of the sun and in order to get the dunes correct I had to underexpose the sky a bit — thanks very much – I really appreciate your artistic comments and thanks for putting into the group – dave
