While in Namibia I climbed this dune to try to get this shot of the curve. Should I crop some from the bottom?
All comments welcome!

Hi Bob, Rich color with pleasing light. Good job in offsetting the leading line and minimalizing a nicely colored but uninteresting sky. While I like the original another idea would be to crop some off the left.

Hi Bob....agree with Dave.....but will add...proportionally off bottom(2/3) will even further strengthen!

Bob, beautiful colors of sand. I would support the idea of crop from left and bottom (upto the point where the diagonal meets the RHS). It will make it a pano and enhance the focus on the lines. BTW, I see a dust bunny, right of the center which you might want to clone out:) TFS.

lovely lines, colour and sense of place Bob...agree especially on a crop from bottom so the dune line comes out of the corner.

Love those curving line formed by the dunes. Wondering how a B&W conversion might look...
