Hamed good luck finding those files, usually shots straight into the sun don't work. However that said it really works here, the bright orb really conveys the dominance of the sun in this environment. Nice work.

Glad you found this one, Hamed. Beautiful color, patterns and texture as usual with you. I really like that golden brown color in the sand. Great sky too. I enjoy how your comp leads me back in to the scene with excellent work from the shadows. Very nice!

Hamed,

This has a nice glow. Light like thisa can be difficult to contrl, but this works. The texture and light in the dune is excellent, and I like the sun rays at the top.

The rays add a lot to this, IMO. Very nice control of the light here as well Hamed.

Hamed, this is so beautiful. I love the sunbeams and the warm color tone. The foreground is just amazing.

Hi Hamed,
This is a very striking image. You handled the exposure situation very well and I love the rich gold tones in the sand. With the wide angle, I'm wondering if you also shot this as a horizontal. The vertical frame is nice, but I'm feeling like I want to see more of the desert's openness. Still, I really like the color and composition. Best Regards.

Hi Hamed, I can feel your pain in loosing the images :-( Anyway this one is pretty neat. I like the contrasts and many different colors of the sand. The light is lovely as well :toast:
