Exquiste shot. Great use of DOF.

Again another great shot, well done

wow this is a sensational pic,very nice indeed.

I agree, fantastic colour.

Thanks for you praise guys - I really appreciate such comments from fellow photographers.

awesome, well done

Yes trickbandit - thanks. And without any "manipulation" - see it can work - somtimes !?!?!?!

Beautiful shot. Can almost feel the warmth.

Lovely colours.  Like it a lot!

Love this one.....great shot!

Lovely shot - like the footprints leading in and out of the photo - looks like its going to be a lovely day

Amazing shot Gil. I love every pixel of it. Congratulations. Regards - Andreas

Althought this is now "relagated " to page two in my gallery - Is is still popular and I must thank everyone who has taken time out to send their comments of encouragement.

This is another great picture, so broad and expansive. I need to travel more to get great photos like yours :-)

Amazing yet again! I'm green with envy!! Well done!

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!  Gil, you and Ryan Houston just blow me away!!!!!!!!!!!  Your gallery is incredible!!!!!!!!

Ann , Claire and Nick - praise from such fine fellow photographers - gladens my heart - Many thanks folks.

A "National Geographic" shot!
Well done Gil.

Very nice lighting, cropping the sky so close to the sea is a bit distracting and its a shame about all the footprints which break up the shape of the dunes, but perfection is hard to find and these are small points. Looks V good as a thumbnail which helps gets lots of attention. Good photo.

Felipe - Go easy on the praise it is embarrassing me - But it is noted and appreciated. Thank You.
Ken  -  Thank you also for your feedback - The lighting is always "best" at the crack of dawn - The crop was deliberate to heighten the expansiveness of these fantastic dunes -   The footsteps I agree are a bit  invasive, but it is a public area - at least that early in the morning there were not many "people" about - just the tell tail signs of the previous days activities.

Breath-taking! The sea in the background adds such contrast and impact. Very good work!

Glad you see exactly what I tried to convey EyeWest - if my message gets thro to but one person - I am a happy man. Many thanks for this and your  other kind comments. Regards Gil.

Humpback whales in sand? Great

Interesting comment ronecc - dunes are like clouds - may things to many people !?!?!?

Just superb. The dunes have so many colours and shades. The contrast with the sea in the background finishes it beautifully.

Excellent job. Congratulations.

Reminds me of some of my shots along the Qatari coast. Nicely done.

Another stunner Gil. 5*

Apologies folks I haven't checked deep into my gallery for ages - what a pleasant surprise to see this one is getting belated recognition - as it is one of my own personal favourites of the sand dunes images - so thank you Chris, Didi, Paul and Dave for adding your kind comments and support.

Hi Gil, stunning shot.  I must apologise as my busy lifestye has prevented me from viewing as many galleries as I would have liked to. This is probably the 2nd or 3rd time I have visited, but not really found much time to comment (sorry.....it's no excuse :-{).  I now realise how fantastic your work is and will be viewing more often!  
PS.  Could do with a few 'Black' borders though!!!!! ..............Only Kidding Lol.
Later
John.

Love the shadows and the warm tones looks as though it's going to be hot all the best Gavin.
