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.
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.
