I sure like it. Strong sky and neat foreground textures and colors. Top of the dunes seem a bit too dark, but this silhouette quality works too to some degree.

Wonderful sky Hamed. I am just wishing to see more detail in the dunes since I sense some wonderful detail is to be seen there.

Assalamu 'Alaikum Hamed,

Nice photo. The sky is stunning. The composition is very nice as well, but I am not sure about the darkness at the horizon.

Trippy shot. I like it though. Quite original processing.

I like the texture of the sand and shape of the dune lines at the horizon, which the clouds seems to support nicely. I also don't mind the graduated darkness of the dunes near the horizon. Not too sure about the color of the sand though, which seems to flare a little bit to my eyes when in combo with the yellow sky.

A very different take on a common subject. :cool: I sort of like the dark horizon but wish for a bit more texture in the ripples.

Interesting color and the details in the dunes are very subtle; I'm thinking a tad brighter and added contrast might showcase it better. The sky works well and the composition is strong.

I like it, but the blend needs work - it emphasizes a mismatch in tones with the top of the dunes being overly dark

I like the mood and feel of this, but agree about the dark area needing work. Overall to me it looks fine as far as the sky, just the dunes need lightening.
