I stayed a few days at White Sands in December. This shot is from a very colorful sunset. Thank you for your comments.

Wow, this is gorgeous. Minor nit - I might tone down the bright sand in the BG just a bit.

I have a different take--i love the top half, personally id crop out the bottom and go with a minimalist approach--the clump down bottom doesnt do much for me and it looks soft or OOF. Pretty shot though.

Stan, I took a bunch of minimalist shots, you can see an example below, but without a reference point (vegetation at this one) they look missing something. That's why I like this one most.

I absolutely love this image Serkan! The colors are so intense in the sky, and they contrast beautifully with the muted sand! Excellent work!

Great mix of colors, feels a little tight on the left next to the grasses. Your repost minimalist shot appears a s the processing went a little crazy. Too saturated and contrasty. Love the subtleness of the original.

I just like the image the way it is. The soft colors are very artistic. Although I do see value in Stan's suggestion.

Love the pastel colors in sky and sun. The clump of grass does anchor the image but I'm a big fan of abstracts so I really like Stan's suggestion. Lovely image

I love this just the way it is. I am a fan of soft watercolor painting and this reminds me a bit of that. Love the soft contrasting colors. The bush in FG adds to that.
