Very nice study, Iain. Simple but has a lot of complexity as well. I think the sand could use a little lightening as it seems to dark to me. My only other suggestion would be to darken the light area in the ULHC as it pulls the eye there and away from your subject. Nevertheless, a nice image that has a very peaceful mood.

Great subject, beautifully composed and lit - the play between the grass and its shadow is wonderful. I agree about perhaps modifying the top LC a little, as it does pull the eye away, but this is a very fine image whatever.

Beautiful lines in this image, Iain. I really like the way the grasses and their shadows curve and the line of the dune. If this were mine, I might be tempted to clone over the sunlit patch of dune in the ULC as I find it pulls my eye away from the main composition.
