Photographer’s Note
This gives you an idea how poweful the wind can be over in the outer hebrides, isle of Harris, Scotland . These dune grass circles are only achieved however when its windy but no rain (as rain damages the formation)which isnt that often.

Hi Fergus
Very nice picture, very original and impressive. The colors and the light are especially well-fitted to the subject.
Maybe you cut a bit too much the top of the plants.

Almost like crop circles, perfect geometry in the nature, and those plants look so alive even though the ground seems dry. Beautiful.

Hi,
An interesting phenomena, (probably more likely to be marks left by alien spacecraft though). Taken at a good angle, you got a soft light reflecting from the sand as well. Nice one. Thanks.
Dougie.
