Great flat perspectiev you got here, Chris! The vivid colors combined with the play of shadow and light is so intense, especially with the blue skies as an additional contrast.
Well done!

Bonsoir Christian,
Ce jeu d'ombre et lumière sur les dunes est magnifique. J'aime particulièrement la crête de la dune qui serpente.

Nice use of shadows and light. Would never think that a desert could look like that. The way the sand steps up to a center point and the blue sky above it also gives the photo nice depth.

Wonderful use of light. Stunning colour. Namibia is one of those places you have to see for yourself. Never thought a desert can be so beautiful until I saw it.

Great use of shadows. I might have included a little less sky because it's a bit flat.

Hello Christian,
An amazing image with all the distinct tones of the shadows and light. Very good PoV as you have layered the dunes very nicely. Excellent DoF.......

Christian,
The range of earth tones in this shot is amazing. It gives great texture to the image. Like Phillip, I would suggest less sky (and more dunes !). Well done !

Un éclairage excellent sur cet alignement de dunes qui donne des couleurs superbes (peut être un poil trop saturées quand même). Personnellement, je trouve que le ciel occupe une place un peu trop grande dans la photo ...mais ce n'est que mon impression...
Amicalement

Hi Christian,
Wonderful picture...nature at its best.
Have you seen insects and reptiles and were you able to photograph these creatures?
Greetings,

Bonjour Christian!
Excellent choix de prise de vue! Les couleurs sont très belles! Le contraste du sable avec le ciel est incroyable! Les zones d'ombres et de lumières sont efficaces! De plus, il y a de beaux détails dans le sable. Le seul problème que j'ai est que je n'ai aucune idée de grandeur...
Mais quelle belle photo quand même!!

Hi Christian -marvelleous light, the shadows bring out the best aspects of the geometry of the dunes. I was not able to see such a low light when I visited because of the opening hours of the park and distance to accomodation.
