Love the textures and tonal range Hamed. The tracks add a lot of interest. I like images like this too. Makes me wonder what kind of animal made those tracks and where they were going.

Very interesting photograph! The bw treatment and the tracks make this very special.
The tracks are quite interesting.They transform into totally different pattern after the first edge in the fg. I think this is from a snake, but only the part after the edge looks like the snake tracks I have seen in Death Valley.

Very nice Hamed! I like the b/w and the different contrasting patterns with the light, shapes and textures. The tracks add a lot here for me as well.

The simplicity of this image makes it very compelling. Love the leading lines. I also appreciate your choice in making it a black and white. Well done!

I love this image. It makes you stare at it for a while studying the different textures, tones, and of course, tracks! This is definitely not the first image of tracks in sand that you have posted... Keep them coming!!! They're very unique, and each is different.

You like it Hamed, because it tells a story and provokes many questions, too.

Very well done.

This is fantastic Hamed! I love the zones of sand the critter made his tracks across and I find it very interesting too that the middle "zone" shifted and altered the tracks, yet the rest of the tracks are still in tact. Even without the tracks, I love the change in tone and patterns between the zones. I love this!

This is definitely very interesting! Love the b&w treatment here, but personally I would like just a tad bit more contrast. The patterns and the tracks are nice. Cool shot!
