Good morning, Desert Photo

Photographer’s Note

One more curve of Sossusvlei dune.
Early morning - the best time to explore this sand world.
in the workshop I post a ridge of the dune: how it looks after people left their footprints on it.

wow, very good work! great use of light, kind of classic idea, but good scene and great idea of putting people in the shot, so we can have an idea about the space and size of dunes. indeed interesting photo.

Hello Olga!

Ah, you don't need Death for a nice desert photograph ;-P.
I love sand dunes. Well, to look at, not for my Land Rover. In Sudan I surely drove around them, since the descent can be quite dangerous and you never know where the sand will be soft or hard.
Nice photograph! No more post processing needed from my side ;-).

Greetings!
Dennis

Hi Olga, i love this composition. The morning light is wonderful and creates very interesting shapes and soft colors. Your choice for composition is very well balanced with different layers. Good that you include the human figure on it. This way we can realize how high the dunes are.
Best regards
