[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The moving dunes on the sandbars of the Slowinski National Park (in Pomorskie Voivodship - at the Baltic Sea) are unique. The Gardno-Łebsko sandbar is built slowly of dune sand washed up onto the shore by the sea. Processes of accumulation of sand predominate on about 60% of the coast belonging to the Park.
The sand is washed up onto the beach, dried by the sun and wind and then blown further inland. Moving dunes formed as the result of this process. It's worth-mentioning that it has already lasted for over 5000 years.

Ciao!
Very capturing picture, your POV looks unusual but it work very well. I believe your choice on B/W and coarse grain texture is successful.
Nice effect the people as a silhouette, partly cut by the dunes.
It's a pity that in the thumbnail format it doesn't capture.
Good note too.
Bravo!

Witaj Ewa!
Really nice shot, the the special compo and the lights makes the atmosphere of irreality almost tangible. many thanks for sharing, Jalab

Nice frame, nice subject, informative, and many more which I can’t express in word. What I can say... this frame is the one among the best photographs I have ever seen in Trekearth.

Thanks for sharing,
Arijit
