Dramatic shot, but I don't understand it. The comp doesn't seem to fit right. My eyes get stuck on the right structure, and I therefore don't get to enjoy the sky. Then I look at the strange pose of the man... is he standing at attention?

I find myself loving this "despite that awful thing on the right".

*sigh*

I'd certainly have cropped it off the right and a bit off the bottom to compensate.

I'm sure then... I wouldn't have score as highly as you.

Congrats!

Congrats on the ribbon. I figured this was you. We really need to have a mini GTG when I'm home one time :)

I'm sure this will do well for you, although it's much more about other things than the sand, still the eye candy lovers will vote you high, just omit the corny title next time, IMHO.

Striking effect, not so hot on the title. Like how the man seems overly larger than the expanse. Thanks for making me look longer to see a little of what your shot is about.

Magnificent golds and blacks! I love how the structure to the right mimics the posture of the man. Nice use of reflection, too.

One of those weird statue guys? Nice combination of elements, good rich gold tones.

Nice silhouette. Interesting color tone.
