    Ah yes, the powdery white sands of Desoto! I like the "dripping" sand. Some selective sharpening on the face and chest area would be a good idea here (critical focus seems to be closer to the distance where the legs are). To answer your question, yes I would crop a bit off bottom (close to half of it). Nice light you had :-)

    Nice light. That sand looks amazingly fine - seems to have the texture of flour. Agree with Dan's comments on sharpness and another yes for cropping some of the foreground.
