You always seem to nail these desertscapes, Hamed. The FG grasses and the layers work so well together.

The foreground light and shadow play along with the dune textures are wonderful Hamed.

The light on the dune looks fantastic. I am not completelyold on the sky, I personally do not like the underexposed look, but that's personal taste, no aesthetic flaw

Awesome! The sky is a bit dark up top, but i think it works for this image, I still want to know how you avoid flare--care to enlighten us??
Great shot.

Seriously, your use of light is really awesome Hamed. You are like the Marc A of the sand. You should get many more comments than you do. Killer use of light again...

BTW, when Stan says the sky is a bit too dark, what he meant to say is that it is too dark for his taste... I love how it concentrates the light onto the foreground interest.

im always appreciating your valuable comments my friends, really appreciate

BTW, Stan i've answered your question before but you didn't noticed it

here is my answer in this image, you just block the sun by your hand to avoid the sun flare on the FG

(Easy)

Incredible shot! I love the grasses and the texture in the clouds & the sand. It would be hard for me to pick a favorite among all your images at this point!

Hamed, another stunning shot esp in that kind of light. The shapes, colors and textures work beautifully.

Ah, another good one. The bright light on the foreground is what I like the most about this one. The subject and shapes are nice, too.
