Namastay,

I took this shot at Sam Sand Dunes, located 45 km west of Jaisalmer (The Golden City of India).

Sam Sand Dunes is a well known destination in/around Jaisalmer after the "Golden Fort of Jaisalmer". The dunes are as treacherous as they are scenic. Nearly absence of vegetation can be seen at these dunes and it is learnt that the swirling winds are almost as intense as the Khamsins (sandstorms) in the Sahara.

Hi Paras,
What a fantastic composition with these sand dunes.
The camel is in the proper position to balance the dunes!
Superb lighting with a great management; wonderful shadows and shades on the accurate exposed sand.
Nice shapes and perfect details in the sand.
Great artistic work.
Best regards,

Francis Xavier

Hi Paras,

Striking desert photo. The shadows and lines in the sand are well photographed - good sharpness and POV used across these dunes. The camel makes it allthe more pleasing. Well done! TFS.
