Hamed, I really like this one. My only suggestion ist to brighten up the darks in the lower richt corner to see some more details there. But that's just not a big deal.

I like certain aspects of this image; viz., the lines suggesting an arid sand-blown environment with the heat of the sun represented at the top and then near the bottom a few brave stands of grass standing near the shadows. And there is a V there that forms lines leading the eye to the grasses. And I see you from the UAE, possibly around deserts and such, Hamed.
But there is something about the dynamic range that strikes me as false. I am certainly not saying it is, just that that is my impression of it. The brightness at the top is too intense and the depth of the shadow is as well, I think. While there is some detail evident in the light at the top, the amount of negative, or almost negative space in the shadow at the bottom seems excessive in relation to the size of the overall image.
So to summarize, and this is just my perhaps unique personal opinion, I would try for more gradual transition from light to dark and perhaps not so extreme and intense manifestations on both ends. Then, in my imagination, it would be more simple and easy for my mind to assimilate.

Excellent image Hamed. This one really tells a story of the harsh life in the dunes. It almost looks like the two clumps of grass are leaning into each other like two people having a conversation. Well done.
