Very nice. I love the geometry of the composition. And well titled, it does remind one of a maze. As an abstract this works very well. One question is the size of what I'm looking at, it seems it could be anywhere from inches to hundreds of yards, or is this best left to the imagination of the viewer.

Hi Allen, thanks for the reply & for the question, actually this is a very close angel, i used a 50mm on my Olympus which is a 100mm if you compare it with a 35mm size, so i think this is too close and that's why it looks like a big tracks.

i hope you got the answer

I can see why this is a favorite! The low-angle light does an amazing job of creating shadows and highlights to emphasize the ripples. I particularly like the way the light fades off on the top and bottom, creating another level of interest in the composition.

The gradation of color really brings this natural abstract to life. Well processed.

Incredible lines! The varied lighting across the dune adds some wonderful additional depth.
