This photo shows a lot of depth and contrast from the foreground to the background. The lines on the tops of the hills are really sharp and well-defined, and there is still a lot of fluid motion with bends and curves in the sand. This photo is a beautiful exhibit of light and shadows in contrast. The person that is perfectly centered in the middle of the photo is a great measure of the scale of vastness of this beautiful scene. The ripples in the sand in the forefront show how powerful the wind is that moves through this area. You can’t see the wind but you can definitely see the impact. The blue sky is a great contrast that really emphasizes the beauty of this desert landscape.
