Photographer's Note
I always wanted to see the dunes and I had the chance when we stopped for the night at Erfoud. The dunes trip was an optional treat. Of course when we got there, a little later than other groups of tourists, the dunes were scarred with footprints and punctuated along the ridges by dozens of tourists. It was hard to take a shot which payed homage to such beauty, especially as the sun descended over the horizon. Since tourists have become part of the dune scene, I have not cloned them out and I am sure the man in white earns his living dealing with tourists.

Dobro vece.
Interesantan i lep pogled, lep trenutak, dobar tekst ...
Dobar rad i kompozicija, lepo pokazana dina i turisti, dobar kontarst i perspektiva, lepe boje, lepo uhvacen trenutak. Surova priroda a ipak lepa i privlaci turiste. Lepa igra svetla i senke na dini.
Prijatno vece i mirna noc sa dobrim snom, sve najbolje.
Paja.

Dear Klaudio!
I had only one choice: making it a favourite of mine. This picture is really stunning both in composition, colours and technical realization.
Best Wishes,
Gy.

Hello Klaudio,
It doesn't matter how the man in white earns his living as long as he is well placed and faces you. You managed to find a place where the sand was not so full of foot prints, and as for the tourists sitting on the ridge of the dune they bring some humour to the photo. And nothing can spoil the beauty of these colours and the soft play of light and shade.
Best wishes,
Gert

The tourist-encrusted dunes are still very attractive. Plus the colourful tourists add context to the photo as such is the true look of this place. Gone are the ancient nomads, replaced with locals working in the tourism industry. But the colours of the dunes and the light are still as marvellous as they were centuries ago.
Srdacni pozdrav

Hello Klaudio,
this is absolutely well-lit, reduced to its essence and razor blade sharp. A great photo!
A Happy Easter to you and all of your family!

Hi there. I love this picture. You have framed it perfectly, the man not too low, not too high. Interesting background, walking tourists. The colours are beautiful too. Greetings.

Hello Klaudio,
Such dunes are fascinating. I have seen many deserts, it is the places with no rain or only few, but in fact rarely they are like this. This is the view we imagine hearing the word desert. But the place do not seem quite deserted - we see many people and camels. Wonderful colours.
Have a nice day

Hello Klaudio
A fine image of great clarity and graphism. I'm particularly intrigued by the line of people on the dune in the background! Not to mention the camels seemingly half-buried in the middle distance. And the empty foreground works a treat.

Hello Klaudio,
I have really enjoyed just looking at your photograph!
The restricted palette adds to the overall impression.
I love how the orange hues show the undulations of the dunes and more closely, the ripples in the sand.
You have given us an important focal point and a secondary group, to draw us into the distance.
My warm regards,
Bev 😊

Hi Klaudio,
Interesting layers of orange sand with some shade made wonderful pattern. The tourists sitting on the hill and Moroccan in the FG is great composition. Wonderful picture with fantastic colors, light and sharpness.
Kind regards,
Zbigniew
