Hello Angel,

I like this image with the lovely sky and the dunes with these "waves" in the sand. The colors are well rendered and the sharness is excellent.

Best regards

Jacques

Hello Angel,
I like this very interesting composition where you juxtapose the grass (it looks dry!) and the distant clouds over it.
I also like it that you included a lot of the sky in the photo: it helps to balance the dry sand - not only "technically" but also emotionally (hope you see what I mean) :)
best regards,
Elena

ciao Angel,
a volte due soli elementi bastano a creare un'ottima composizione, come in questo caso dove i colori sono trattati in modo molto naturale,

Hello Angel - I like the simplicity of this shot. The sharply focused dune with its textural detail and grasses blowing in the wind looks wild a beautiful against the softly focused sky. Warm regards Rosemary

Hi Angel
Love the hint of ripples of the sand and the reeds as they creat a great contrast to the blue sky. A nature shot under bright light with excellent sense of isolation but you are blessed the wonderful clouds formation. Fine effort, Congrats.
Best regards

Hola Ángel,
me gusta la gran sencillez de esta composición, que descubriste con un buen ojo fotográfico, y en la que supiste aprovechar todo el potencial estético de las dunas, su breve vegetación y la belleza de las nubes en el cielo azul.
El resultado es una maravilla, la luz y los colores tienen una alta calidad gracias a una buena gestión de la exposición, y la foto parece una bonita pintura.
Gran trabajo, amigo mío.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Hi dear Angel

Sorry for my late reaction, as I was out of Tokyo for another festival shoting.
Yes this is fantastic and artstic shot to present the desert as the rough image to makes so clear and sharp description as always. The blue sky and the combination with sands are so marvelous indeed. Best balanced framework shot! Thanks for your good work and have a good weekend!
Best reagrds,

Takero from Tokyo, why rain again here?

Simple yet collected wonderfully, Angel.
I like the contrast (which I value the most in pic.'s), fabulous blue on light-brown dune sand's, with small bush trying to hold the dune not to be carried by wind. i think that is the purpose to plant in places alike.
Buenas tardes,
Ike
