I love the effect of the dust combined with the light. Wonderfully captured .

Sweet image! Love the mood it sets with the dust, light and obscured people and animals.

Very nice. The dust and the light work well. The closest camel is clear enough to provide a focus point, while the dust clouded camels shows the environment perfectly.

Ahhhh, I just love the light in your part of the world sometimes! This really captures the atmosphere well.

I really like the atmosphere, and it's nice to get a bit of detail, not just silhouettes. It really helps that the foreground camels on the left are separated a bit and offer a bit more detail. A pity about the fence... about the only thing I don't like!

thanks a lot for your comments and critique,

Marc, we always like what we don't have, I love the light in your part in your part

we rarely have colorful sunset

Max, I don't like the fence to but if I remove it in photoshop it will be cheating

Congrats on a fine WP - very well done. The one camel almost clear is a great anchor for the rest in this mesmerizing scene.

I really like it, I didn't notice the fence before reading Marc's comment, I agree but it is not so obvious. Light, dust, camels framed perfectly.
Congrats on WP.
