The rippling patterns in the desert sands is just phenomenal! And the caravan of Bedouins and the desert 'bush' make a wonderful scene against the morning light...
Love that foreground and those gorgeous colors. Great composition and imagery too. Again outstanding work Francis. Thank you also for all of your comments on my work.
