[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The first real dune of our trip in the Namib desert, the Elim dune. This one is not the highest one (about 100 meters), but it has an history :

Mr Elim was the owner of the area where stands this dune, and at the end of his life he decided to make a donation of this place to the namibian state. then, his name was given to the dune.

Wonderful light captured here Laurent and of course a pleasure to see Mr. Elm's orange earth dune.

Salut Laurent
Voici une photo qui me rappelle quelque chose. Cet endroit est absolument fabuleux. Tu as le même problème que moi : le bougé des hautes herbes.
Cordialement
JP

Bonjour Laurent,

Ces grandes herbes jaunes habillent parfaitement le premier plan et le sable ocre contraste bien avec le reste. Jolie compo c!

Stéphanie.

Hello laurent,

Nice warm colours and low angle to compose this image. The view is excellent and the lack of people and structures give a sense of desolation. Good sharpness and colour saturation. Thanks.

Salut Laurent,
excellent cadrage et très belle lumière pour cette image d'un désert connnu por être assez hostile.
Les couleurs douces avec ce cadrage habile en font un endroit très doux à regarder.

Hi Laurent,
Very excellent low angle shot that features the desolation of the sand dunes and the grasses seemingly blowing in the wind. Very nice color saturation and clarity. Excellent work and TFS. Gerald

Re salut,
Magnifique luminosité qui aumente encore l'intensité des couleurs chaudes.
Excellent point de vue et cadrage.
Bonne journée.
Igor
