Western Australia landscape, along Indian Ocean Drive.

Don’s response

Reminiscent of a big wave at sea, this dune with its little veil of wind-blown sand has an impressive, surging dynamism.

Photographer Jake Curtis looks to have used a red filter to render his sky in dramatic black.

It works well enough, but it might have been better to have given that velvety blackness something closer to a third of the image.
