I had left in the dark to get out to the dunes by daybreak. My photography partner started climbing the dunes while I worked a more circumferential route. This simple composition stood out to me after crossing to the backside of the main dune field. It was still blue hour when I captured the scene looking toward the east.
To fully display the tonality of the dunes, I spread the highlights out on the right side of the histogram while leaving the pinkish tones from the blue hour as they were.
