White Sand Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

About 30 minutes drive up to north from Mui Ne there is another surprising view what we call "White Sanddune", formed like real 'desert'.

Beautiful shot!
It made me remember about White Sands in New Mexico, USA. I was there once and it was cool!

Amazing colours in this superbly composed picture. The sand in front of the right hand side person really gives the sense of motion. The ripples in the foreground add a very good graphic element to what otherwise would be a flat area. Well done.

JS: Give justive where justice is due. This is an outstanding image. Superb in every detail. I'll throw in my two cents of green. c

Hi Js,

Quite a good photo, I like the presentation of the two people walking across this vast and seemingly unforgiving environment. The ripple patterns are extraordinary and offer a really good introduction to the photo. I think that a few extra bits of post processing work could have made it even better so I decided to post a workshop. I hope you think the final result is ok. Take care.

Wonderful image, Lee
I like the landscape and the way you composed these vendors in a very good composition. Their vietnamese hat get along very well with the peak of sand dune.

Surely You already know it, but I must write it: it's a great shot :-) The colours, composition, proportions of the "dunes" in light and shadow, the sky aaand last but not least - the people. Perfect quality.
Congratulations

This place is crazy and the way you composed is one of the best I've seen. These cone hats in that sand desert are so unusual ! Excellent.
