A wonderful shot of this classic landscape. The colors are dramatic and the area beautifully forbidding.

The bold and dramatic shadow captures the eye and works as a dynamic contrast to the rest of the surrounding landscape.

The focus is sharp with clear details in the foreground.

A great entry for the contest and I wish you all the best in the voting.

A wonderful landscape presented here of red sand dunes in Namibia. (I would love to go there at some stage). I love the perspective you have taken this image from showing us the vastness of the surrounding sand dunes and on the ground with the trees. Interesting play of light with the dark shadow on the dune. Well composed and captured. All the best in the contest!

A beautiful scene with amazing colors. I like the carved look of the red sand dune and the sparse plant life in this
great looking Subsaharan desert.

I love to see differnt pasrts of the world. The POV is totally cool. The red dune is amazing. We have the Silver Lake dunes are huge but not red. The sections of the photo contain interest and helps tie the scene together.

This is an interesting landscape photography. The clarity of the image is good. The distant red coloured dunes , the blue sky, the clay pan in the foreground make it a well composed shot. Good luck!

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


I like the color harmony within the photo, various rust browns in the foreground, the patterns a textures there, sets up the background colors nicely.
The textual difference between the vegetation,the shadows, adds a roughness against the smoothness of dunes, all of that, makes for a interesting visual flow within the shot.

You have presented a nice image, that is shot very well.

Thank you for allowing me to leave my critique on your photo.

Have a good day, stay safe.
Cheers.
Lucien

A beautiful aerial picture of a large red sand dune& drought tolerant trees in Sossusvlei Namibia with the wing of your small plane on the left. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.

    Looking at out again in better light I realise my MISTAKE what I then thought was the plane's wing ... Is the sand dune's shadow.

A very good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of your strange but interesting location. Like that swirling sand dune. Well taken!
