[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
At Sossussvlei, climbing of the abricot color dunes. It is said it is the highest dunes in Africa with more than 300m of high.
As the sand is moving a lot when walking, it takes a little time to reach the summit, but as you can see, it is worth as the view on this red sea is incredible.

Hi ,
It looks wonderful. Excellent colourtone and the inclusion of the person is a nice idea.
Regards.

Hi Yves,
this is a great picture of climbing a dune, much better then mine. And I see, that you are right with your comment, but my my info was given by a park-ranger. May be, that it was a misunderstanding. Sorry for that and so I'll change my note.
Thanks and keep well
Hans

Hello, Yves

I am recently interested in dune photos, since I work in the Tunisian desert. Dunes here are not that high as the ones on your photo. One can say that your's are like ocean, mine - like a lake. Beautiful nature, with a proper way to be shown.

Regards,

Asparuh
