Looks HOT! I do like the minimalist approach with the nicely lit foreground, shaded dune and shadow, and bright sun.

I too like the range of luminance bands or areas; sun, foreground, shadow, and deep shadow. Also the macro and micro repetition of waves; macro in the outlines of the dunes and micro in the foreground sands; all wind made, but at different scale.

The dune on the left and its shadow remind me of an out-of-phase pair of sine waves but the one over on the right, because of the shadow, looks like a pyramid; one more ephemeral than those in Egypt :)

Finally, there is a nicely subtle color contrast with the very slight blue that remains in the sky.

If this is a single shot (as opposed to an HDR stack), I'd be interested in knowing what filter / settings you used.
