"Gold of the desert" Photo

Photographer’s Note

Going to Morocco - visiting Erg Chebii is compulsory! That unbelievable walking golden sands making fantastic shapes and structures with wide range of colour depending on the sunlight. The best time to visit is very early in the morning when the sun is risin and gives very soft light and temperature is quite comfortable. Shot taken at 6 a.m. Merzouga. Southern Morocco. Welcome to the sandy series!

I like your golden photo, the petterns and rage of golden colours are superb. Nice diagonal line separating the highlighs from shadows.
Good work.

Hi Maciej,
Stunning capture!
I like very much the time of the day when you went, the colour saturation is pretty amazing, with that orange tones got on the sand.
Composition made with the shadow and the texture added by the "waves" works great.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.
Best regards,
JM

Beautiful composition, Maciej! Wonderful the golden light on the sand and in the sky too. I like that same-same color and your play with light and shadow. Beautiful the fine structure of the sand. Very impressive indeed, and excellent photo work above. Good. Take care, Barbara.

Wow, great shot! The sharp line of the cune crest really gives this a dramatic appearance as it slashes across the frame. The colour is great too, and I like the texture of the ripples also. Excellent work!
