You have great compo which beautiful colours and perfect lighting and that cigarette in the bottom left really help us to understand the scale. This picture perhaps one of your best, Angshu friend.

Hi Angshu,

That are some amazing footprints you have captured there. Good of the one cigarette butt to creat some reference!
I think the original posting works the best, since it gives better contrast between the deep yellow and the shaded darker parts of the dune. Nice.

Greetings,
Dennis

Hello Angshuman!
What a wonderful picture of this amazing desert landscape. The photo really looks beautiful and shows the landscape very well. You composed this picture perfectly and I like the diagonal line of the sanddunes very much. The light is really fantastic and I also like the shadows a lot. Also fantastic colors, brilliant contrast and brilliant sharpness. The frame matches to this composition very well and you chose an excellent point of view to take this wonderful picture. Well done, my friend!
Best regards,
Jonas

It's difficult to say which image I prefer as colour/contrast is good on both, although different. The only thing I notice is that the increase in contrast in the WS seems to have introduced some colour noise into the shadows that is not apparent in the main post. You have composed the image well with the main formations in a diagonal across the frame. Your POV is excellent so you could look down on the dunes and show up the patterns. Were you on a camel?
Good work

Hi Angshu.

Le vent est grand un artiste-sculpteur de dunes. Il s'est amusé à reproduire la forme des coquillages. La lumière rasante donne du relief aux formes ciselées par la nature. Les couleurs très chaudes sont un plus pour la beauté de ce cliché.

Hi Angshu, such a beautiful texture on the sand. Nice tones and good lightning. I've never been in the dessert. Would love to do that. Nino.

Wow, Angshu, the shapes and colors are fantastic (and the intriguing POV, but I read your reply to Kath). I believe OV is better than WS (too much saturation here IMHO). It could be Mars, or some other planet... Congratulations, Daniel

Bonjour, cher Angshu,
Le désert n'ayant pas donné de concurrent au sable, grande est la paix du désert.

Des cratères, des empreintes, des formes, tout est étonnant dans cette partie de dunes.
La beauté de l'ensemble est remarquable.
Amitiés.

Les détails comme ces dessins sur les dunes donnent un effet de mouvement a celle ci.

ah, here it is. I really love this image, Angshu. And also the idea of giant footprints that it gives. Great diagonal, fascinating pattern and textures. I struggle in my mind so many times...should I push a bit more with pp? Sometimes, I like it more this way, other times I like it more the punchy version. Even now, I can't decide...so I'll keep this softer and more realist version...just for now.

Hi Angshuman,

A good capture of the giant footprints designed by the wind in the sand. The diagonal created by the footprints is an asset to the composition. The point of view is allowing us to see the details and the different tints of colors enhanced by the light. Have a nice day.

Hello M. B,

A superlative shot of nature at its exotic best! The light and shadows accentuate the textures. Your note informs the reader about the scale and that this is on earth, rather than an image sent back by NASA's Martian Rover, plying its way on the distant planet. This is one of the finest shots of desolate landscape I have seen on Trekearth or elsewhere. An A+ for composition, A+ for exposure.

Warm regards and have a good weekend,

Bulent

Hi Angshuman,
The strong graphism and the great beauty of these dunes is perfectly caught in your composition. I like the simplicity and the great attraction of the image, and the magnificent game of the light with the shades, that they draw the relief in the sand of the dunes.
It is an extraordinary work, with a lot of beauty. Good title also.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Angshu,

The Tones are impressive and the diagonal perspective holds the eyes and.................I love the clarity.....rather I am smitten away by the neatness in the shot.

I do enjoy that kind of abstract and extra-contrasted compo... You almost make my judgement about Sam change !!!
All is in the crop and the inspiration. Excellent.

absolutely fantastic photo, Angshuman, the sand looks as if made of gold, and I find the black frame works really well here. the textures are fascinating, like something seen on Moon may be, and I like a lot how you creted a strong diagonal line that leads the eye through the photo. excellent work, my compliments.

Kristine

Hello Angshuman,
This is quite a different thing from your usual approachs but the result is very pleasing indeed.
First the tones which are superb and then these textures on the sand surface which indeed look as gigantic footprints.
Well seen.

Well done Angshu

Hi Angshuman,

Beautiful tone .. Beautiful textures .. I love the way you angled inot into the frame. very nice. .. Depending on how the noise feels if it enlarges I like the workshop even better.

take care,

Hey there,
I missed this photo in your gallery before - but its a real outstanding winner shot!
I like the patterns, the crispness of it all and the shades of light.

Hi Angshuman,
Indeed a stunning display of the works of nature. The intense colour and good range of tones really brought out the beautiful form of the desert. The swirls and zigzag movement is very musical and pleasing to the eyes. Splendid shot!!

Best wishes and an easy Sunday.
