The red in this image really makes the photo brilliant.
It draws in the viewer and they take notice of the excellent depth and perspective of the scene.
Really beautiful in color and dimension, this tri toned landscape has a stunning quality!

Your special talent makes even the desert look like a paradise - wonderful view point and distance to show the different materials of sand ad mountain - the dry plants are standing like ghosts, clear and sharp in details the are well placed in your space - you also got the perfect say time so the sky adds in to the same color range - a very harmonious and well balanced picture with an interesting initial impact, well done

I think this landscape looks stunning because of the red sand dunes in the background, and it is such a lovely warm light in the photo. The sky has a delicate golden touch, and all the dried out trees are standing out so well.
Your photo is nice and sharp showing clear details all over, and the exposure is perfect.
The format you have cropped the photo into works well, and with the biggest tree off to the right, it is a fine balance in the composition. Indeed a great looking and well taken photo Fred, and with an excellent DOF.

The glow of the red sand dunes in the light of the sunrise is extraordinary. The sand dunes are emphasized by the desert in the foreground which is still in the morning shadows. The bizarre branches of the barren trees and the living tree at right reaching above the horizon are intriguing and seem to emphasize the red dunes even more. The panorama framing is adequate. The photo is well composed and balanced.

A beautiful image. I especially like the form of all those dead trees and wonder what killed them. I like the warm tones but think that they don't do much to show off the color of the dunes.

Well I must say that this is one of your more Artistic scenes. I like it very much.
The foreground twisted trees give an otherworldly sense. They act as a gateway drawing the ye to the far reached of the scene where one finds the dramatic red dunes. Artistic.
Very well done Fred ~ Steve

This looks unworldly and could be used for a movie about the red planet. The sun hitting the large dune while the closer plain is still in shadow really makes the colors pop. The bare tree shapes add interests and structure to the shot. Good focus, good color. Well seen.

Fred,
A beautiful & atmospheric picture of this red Namibian sand dune at sunrise with the gold tinted sky making the perfect backdrop for the dark silhouetted trees some leafless in the foreground growing in the sandy soil. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
